# 2022 National Book Festival: How Racism Happens with Robert Samuels and Linda Villarosa

What is systemic racism? In "Under the Skin," Linda Villarosa exposes forces in our healthcare system that cause Black people to "live sicker and die quicker." In "His Name is George Floyd," Robert Samuels draws upon hundreds of interviews to illustrate how inequalities in housing, education, health care, criminal justice, and policing affected Floyd's life and legacy. Moderated by Eric Deggans.
