Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
When Larry Mungin joined a prestigious law firm, he thought it was the culmination of a life-long goal to excel and be what he defined as a “good black.” Two years later, he found himself suing that firm for racial discrimination. Kojo speaks with Mungin and the author of a new book that tells the story of Mungin’s lawsuit and his life leading up to it.
Guests
- Paul Barrett Author, Wall Street Journal reporter
