In this episode, J. Maken, Yve, and Djeko welcomed a guest speaker, social media influencer, business partner and a dearest friend Fanzo Chery known as Coach Chery to discuss racism, police brutality, the protests, and the looting that is going on right now due to the current incident with the police officer kneeling on a black man, George Floyd's neck leading him to unable to breathe till he died. Watching the video was heartbreaking as the police officer kneeling on George Floyd's neck for 8 minutes and 46 seconds and hearing George Floyd saying "I can't breathe" repeatedly until he ran out of breath and died while the police officer still kneeling on his neck.

As we all know, racism, and police brutality, has been happening for ages now and it is truly sad to see no change as they continue to happen. This is why there was a movement that started called Black Lives Matter to send a message to all authorities to stop killing black people. People are protesting peacefully for a change and justice for all black African Americans who have died from police brutality and racism.

Black Lives Matter doesn't mean All Lives doesn't matter, we know all lives matter but Black Lives Matter simply means that we are the most targetted people, stop killing us because of our skin color. Us black people, we are tired of being treated unequal, we deserve to be treated equally not because we are black but because we are humans.

It is the first time in history, all 50 states, and 16 countries have been protesting peacefully not only for George Floyd, all the black African Americans who have died but also for Black Lives Matter. Just like white lives matter, black lives matter too.
