Over the past weeks, we have seen all 50 states in America alongside 18 countries standing together and participating in the #BlackLivesMatter protest making it the largest civil rights movement in world history.

The world is crying out for a new order and peace. But where do we start?

In today's podcast, Pete and Kim Vargas invite you into a real and raw conversation about the topic of racism. You will hear from Pete's mom, sisters, nephew, and even their own son. 

The Vargas family is composed of many ethnicities such as Black, White, Hispanic, and more. You will hear a unique perspective on how racism affects every person and every generation. 

We encourage you to use this episode as a resource to reflect on yourself, spark conversation within your own family and community to create a better future.
