In this episode, we discuss the death of George Floyd and the impact his killing has had on society, domestically and globally.  Protesting during the pandemic, peaceful vs violent protests.  The importance of unity during the tragedy. 

We look into how leadership plays an important role during crises. We discuss how this crisis continues to shed light on systemic barriers that exist in the African American community, the importance of funding in low-income minority communities and the importance of voting. 

Time for action, and less talking. How to bring solutions to the table. The effect of athletes using their platform to speak out on matters of social injustice. The NBA and NFL’s response to current events and the controversial statements made by Drew Brees. Is the Rodger Goodell apology sincere? What does all this mean for the future of Colin Kaepernick.
