Keith Boykin, a New York Times–bestselling author, TV and Film producer and former CNN political commentator, discusses his new book, “Why Does Everything Have to Be About Race? 25 Arguments That Won’t Go Away.”

INSERT: The three white men convicted of killing Ahmaud Arbery in 2020 will have their appeals heard by a federal court in Atlanta today. The trio was found guilty of federal hate crime charges just months after their murder trial. We’ll hear from Arbery’s family and their attorney.

Plus, Katie Giede is among a group of Conyers Waffle House employees who have joined a strike led by the Union of Southern Service Workers. The workers are calling for the Department of Labor to investigate the company’s “meal credit” policy, which takes $3 from each worker's shift - even if they don't eat a meal. Giede talks with Rose about the strike and the other changes employees are calling for.
