What Do You Mean By That?

117: One Year: An Intro to Our Summer of Action


Listen Later

We're here, just over one year after the murder of George Floyd, with a question: now that we've spent a year in discussions centered on being more open about racism, systemic racism, and how we can be more anti-racist, what have we actually done about it? How do we feel? Where do we go from here, and more importantly - where should we collectively be moving as a country?

Today's episode is a conversation - a reflection of what we've experienced last year collectively and personally, and most importantly, an introduction to our summer of action. Let's move past "muted and listening" and onto action, because that's how we're actually going to make change, together.
