Dungeons & Dragons

The <em>Pop Culture Happy Hour</em> team is off today, so we're bringing you an episode from our pals at Code Switch all about <em>Dungeons & Dragons.</em> It's one of the most popular tabletop roleplaying games of all time. But it has also helped cement some ideas about how we create and define race in fantasy — and in the tangible world. Host Gene Demby and producer Jess Kung take a deep dive into that game, and what racial stereotypes and colonialist supremacy it's illuminating.
