Princeton Prof. on Race Relations: “Our Democracy Is Broken"

This has been a summer of nationwide unrest over racial injustice in America -- a field in which Eddie Glaude Jr. is an expert. He chairs the Department of African American Studies at Princeton University and his latest book is titled "Begin Again: James Baldwin’s America and Its Urgent Lessons for Our Own." Glaude Jr. tells Walter Isaacson what we can learn from Baldwin's personal struggle.
