"Our fates are linked," she says. "It costs us so much to remain divided."

'Racism makes our economy worse -- and not just in ways that harm people of color, says public policy expert Heather C. McGhee.
From her research and travels across the US, McGhee shares startling insights into how racism fuels bad policymaking and drains our economic potential -- and offers a crucial rethink on what we can do to create a more prosperous nation for all.'

This talk was presented at an official TED conference and was featured by Ted Talk editors on their home page.
