CAPEHART: But the conversations on race we need to have are going to require more courage than what’s on display now. That’s because they will require trust, the ability to listen and an understanding of nuance as the hurts, grievances and fears of the person speaking flow forth. And we’re just not ready for that. As Attorney General Eric Holder Jr. perfectly put it in 2009, “Though this nation has proudly thought of itself as an ethnic melting pot, in things racial we have always been and continue to be, in too many ways, essentially a nation of cowards.” He caught hell for those remarks. But he was absolutely right. wapo.st/1k6ewNs
