I liked reading about his life, but he tends to oversimplify some concepts about race and over relies on comparing race in South Africa to race in America to emphasize his points. His comparisons are surface level at best and demonstrate a lack of in-depth understanding of race in America. You can tell he’s used to having these conversations in front of a live studio audience of mostly white people.
