Neo-soul musician India Arie reflected Monday on her decisions to boycott Spotify and hold Joe Rogan accountable for repeatedly using the N-word on his podcast.
In the latest episode of “The Daily Show,” the singer-songwriter engaged in a thoughtful, 30-minute conversation with host Trevor Noah about Spotify’s treatment of artists, as well as the difference between “conscious racism” and “unconscious racism.”
“I have learned in my life to make room and forgiveness for people who are unconsciously racist because our whole society is built on racist concepts,” Arie told Noah.
