Episode 1:
Recorded on 29 May 2020, this episode was fresh in the wake of the tragic death of George Floyd on 25 May 2020. In this episode, Barnes & Boom are in the thick of the emotional impact, but still muster the courage to ask questions. We discuss:
1) What happened on 25 May 2020?
2) What does this say about race relations?
3) The social media backlash - was it appropriate?
4) The expectations of White People - was this fair?
5) A beautiful spoken word piece by Boom;
6) A Way Forward?
As we state, we were in the thick of our grieving and our opinions have since evolved. Barnes even feels like she got “converted” in some way to the social justice movement at the time & felt like it was hostile to share her views. Stay tuned for our episode on White Privilege...
