NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC - Its Racist History

"How National Geographic is facing its racist history" PBS NewsHour 3/27/2018

Excerpt

SUMMARY:  National Geographic has long provided a unique lens to view the world -- one that has sometimes distorted the lives of people of color.  Now the 130-year-old magazine turns the lens on itself, with an issue devoted to the topic of race, and an apology for past portrayals by editor-in-chief Susan Goldberg.  Special correspondent Charlayne Hunter-Gault sits down with Goldberg to discuss that reckoning.
