Capehart is a Pulitzer prize winning journalist with a BA in Political Science who writes about political and social issues.

Capehart talks about the precautions his mother instilled in him early on about how to maneuver a society that wasn't built to make him feel safe or comfortable. Allow this to serve as a reminder that you are not alone when you do these things, when you feel this paranoia and navigate the systemic racism and oppression of the American society.
