Sociologist Neda Maghbouleh has spent years talking to second generation Iranian Americans about their experiences with racialization in the United States. Although they're legally classified as white, their social experience rarely squares with their legal classification. She joins the show to discuss her research and share her own experiences in the no man's land of Iranian American racial politics.
