Lewis Howes
About this episode

"It wasn't enough to end segregation, we should've mandated integration."

Today's guest is former pro athlete turned sports analyst, New York Times Best-Selling author, and host of the series, "Uncomfortable Conversations With A Black Man," which opened a virtual conversation with white America about race relations, racism, and educational and economic inequalities.

Lewis and Emmanuel came together to talk about the work he’s been doing to start uncomfortable but necessary conversations about racial injustice issues in our society and the success that has come with it. This interview is filled with life lessons, tough questions, and advice for starting conversations about race.
