John McWhorter on controversy and reconstructing Fats Waller’s “Early to Bed”

New York Times columnist, bestselling author, linguist and Columbia University professor John McWhorter doesn’t shy away from controversy. He talks with Mo Rocca about his book, “Losing the Race: Self-Sabatoge in Black America,” published in 2000, along with one of his latest projects, reconstructing the long-forgotten 1940s hit Broadway musical “Early to Bed” with music by jazz legend Fats Waller, and why he feels good about how people perceive him now.
