Kenny Xu shares with us what his latest book is all about and the discrimination against Asian Americans in college admissions.
We have Kenny Xu today, the president of a nonprofit organization called “Color Us United” which advocates for an America that is not divided by race, gender, or religion. His book titled “An Inconvenient Minority: The Attack on Asian American Excellence and the Fight for Meritocracy” discusses just that and we discuss this as well as his personal experience on the challenges of college and university admission that Asian Americans often face.

Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life.
