Socrates Café: Should Race Matter?

By Laura Knoy on Tuesday, May 6, 2008.

Each month The Socrates Cafe explores a different philosophical question, both on the air and on the web. This month we look at the question "Should race matter?" Is being the majority race still an advantage, or not? Do people of one race get special treatment or attention? If so, is that needed or right? Be part of the conversation.
