This week Bill Moyers speaks with Ta-Nehisi Coates, a senior editor at The Atlantic, about “The Case for Reparations,” his cover story for the magazine’s June issue, which will be published on Wednesday. In it, Coates writes about why America needs to come to terms with its racist past, and the moral debt and real damage it has inflicted upon generations of black Americans. The article, previewed below by The Atlantic, is the result of over two years of research by Coates.
