This week, Jarrett Hill and Tre'vell Anderson discuss why so many Black folks are hesitant to get vaccinated for covid-19 and the African American community's complicated relationship to the healthcare industry. We're joined by Nurse Alice Benjamin and Dr. Darien M. Sutton who will give us all the information we need to make an informed decision about the vaccine. 

But first…

Pass the Popcorn

We're joined by educator Bianca Mabute-Louie for a conversation about the rise in anti-Asian violence in the nation and how communities of color can come together to create change.
