  • What is Happening in Russia and Ukraine? Critical Race Theory, COVID, First Black Supreme Court Justice, etc.
    Hey everyone, this week we have some SUPER important news updates. First of all, Russia invaded Ukraine (we have predicted this would happen in past updates, but now it's a reality). We talk about what this means for Ukraine, what the US might do, and overall what affect this is having on our world. We also discuss the first black woman nominated on the Supreme Court, some COVID news, and the critical race theory (we talk about what it is, and why some people are so hesitant to teach it in schools).
