Politics and identity: Racism on the US campaign trail

From comments on curry to fried chicken, we take a look at how racially charged views have gone viral in the US presidential campaign. We find out how the latest controversy began with a tweet by right-winger influencer Laura Loomer. We also dive into how racial identity is a hot topic, and a potentially precarious one, in the election campaign. 

This Entre Nous aired on Paris Direct, September 19, 2024. A programme produced by Amanda Alexander, Marina Pajovic and Georgina Robertson.
