The Issue Is Race - A Crisis In Black and White (1992) | Phil Donahue Sister Souljah Debate COMPLETE
An overview of the problem of race and poverty is presented at the beginning of the video and it includes a cost/benefit analysis of the effect of crime and poverty on the economy. The reporter notes that youth who commit crimes and end up in prison are costs to society, whereas if they were accorded opportunities for work and being successful they would become benefits to society. Following this presentation, the panel of experts discusses changes and improvements to race relations in the past 25 years (pre-1992) and what still needs to be done to improve the situation between Blacks and Whites. The discussion was moderated by Phil Donohue, and the panel included Alan Keyes, Richard Nathan, Sister Souljah, Jonathan Kozol, Anna Deavere Smith, John Silber, Mayor Sharon Pratt Kelly and Dhoruba Bin Waha.
