Is 'Diversity And Inclusion' Far From Its Roots? And What's An NFT?

Sam talks to <a href="https://www.kimtranphd.com/">Kim Tran</a>, an anti-racist author and consultant, about <a href="https://www.harpersbazaar.com/culture/features/a35915670/the-diversity-and-inclusion-industry-has-lost-its-way/">her article in Harper's Bazaar</a> on how the diversity, equity and inclusion industry has strayed from its movement roots. Plus, what's an NFT? And why are people buying them? And what are they again? Sam breaks it all down with tech reporters <a href="https://www.npr.org/people/638550790/bobby-allyn">Bobby Allyn</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/eringriffith">Erin Griffith</a> to explain the phenomenon of the non-fungible token — and whether it can last.
