The Racist Past of a Young Mark Wahlberg

In June 1986, then 15-year-old Mark Wahlberg and his friends threw rocks and yelled racial slurs at three black kids. The next day, Wahlberg and the others harass a group of mostly black fourth-graders. Saadia and Asad look at the early racist life of superstar celebrity Mark Wahlberg and how he's atoned for his sins.

Hosted by Saadia Khan and Asad Butt.

Produced by Immigrantly & Rifelion Media.
