Locked On Penguins - Daily Podcast On The Pittsburgh Penguins

In an eye-opening discussion, Ross Jackson (Locked On Saints), Aaron Freeman (Locked on Falcons), Tony Wiggins (Locked On Jaguars), John Hickman (Locked On Texans), Chris Carter (Locked On Steelers), Keith Pompey (Locked On 76ers), Coty Davis (Locked On Texans), and Your Boy Q (Locked On Raiders) come together for a special Locked On Podcast Network Black Lives Matter Roundtable. These eight Locked On hosts share their first-hand experiences as black men in America. When was the first time they clocked racism in their lives? What are the pet peeves they experience as a black man? In the wake of George Floyd's killing, does this movement feel different than those of the past? What needs to happen for this moment in time to have a lasting impact on society and to result in real gains for social justice? And, will these experiences change the next generation?  

We take a momentary pause in our daily sports talk for this revealing and important special podcast episode.
