Photojournalist Eli Reed became a member of Magnum photo agency in 1988. He's a professor at the University of Texas at Austin. I just saw this video posted on Magnum's Twitter feed and thought it was worth sharing. Reed and others discuss what it means to be black in today's America. He took all of the photos.
