Spectrum Street Epistemology
Feb 22, 2024

Peter uses Spectrum Street Epistemology to engage two UCLA students about race. One is a black student athlete from Chicago and the other is from Italy. Initially, the claims dealt with race at UCLA, broaching topics such as the racial makeup of UCLA, meritocracy, and truth. Eventually, the conversation evolves into whether it should be okay to exclude people based on race. Midway through, Peter joins the two students. Reid Nicewonder, the President of Street Epistemology International, moderates the conversation. There are several points of disagreement between Peter and the students, particularly when it comes to meritocracy and racial affinity groups.

I'm having a hard time squaring "you always feel better around people who look like you" with "diversity is our strength".

It is truly wild to me that you can create a true racist and have them actually convinced that they’re not racist.
This is really insane.
