21. Black Lives Matter

Today, we sat down to have an uncomfortable conversation on the recent events in our country in relation to racial injustice. But uncomfortable conversations lead to impactful change. George Floyd died at the hands of police and it’s not okay. Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Abrery, Trayvon Martin, Eric Garner, Tamir Rice, Sandra Bland, and the list goes on of Black people who have died senselessly due to white supremacy and police violence. We break down the George Floyd case, protesting & rioting across the nation, and why the only answer to speak up and be anti-racist. #BLACKLIVESMATTER
