November 15, 2026
Lilian Thuram, a former footballer and activist, emphasizes that racism is a systemic phenomenon present in all aspects of society. He reflects on his early experiences with racism and the lessons learned from his mother. Through his work, such as his book "White Thought," he aims to dismantle the concept of racial superiority. He believes racism manifests in many forms, often unrecognizable to those who haven't experienced it. Collective advocacy and equality are essential to combating this issue.
