The film, based on the book by Dr. Ibram X. Kendi, examines structural racism in the U.S. stretching from before the country’s founding up to the present day. Stamped From the Beginning, winner of the National Book Award, was published in 2016, the year Donald Trump was elected president the first time. Last week, Williams traveled to Yale for a screening of Stamped From the Beginning hosted by the university’s Office of Inclusion and Diversity.
