This episode was recorded just over a week after George Floyd was murdered by police officers in Minneapolis, Minnesota. We are joined by Gregory Parks and Duck Washington to discuss this act that took place in our home and the impact it has had on our community and on the world. We barely scratch the surface. Below find a partial list of ways to support those impacted by Floyd’s murder and the resulting violence that rocked our homes. We’ll add more as we can.
