In our Black Lives Matter Part 1 episode, we wanted to dive right into being comfortable with the uncomfortable for the purpose of using this platform to inform and educate about racism in and out of cheerleading, the fears and excitement of being new parents, and some of the steps we can all take to help everyone around us find equity.
