"I Can't Breathe." Those were the words George Floyd sputtered out from underneath the knee of a police officer. His death was recorded. Protests are erupting throughout all fifty states to end police brutality and to give them accountability for their systematically oppressive nature. We talk with Kodak Chris, a photographer in the scene about how he's handling the state of things, especially with two kids. We also talk with a virtual protestor who cannot be outside due to an immunocompromised system, since we are still battling a global pandemic that is COVID-19. All lives don't matter until black lives do.
The news doesn't stop and we have the latest updates for you. With many of us doing social media cleanses (or trying to) and being overwhelmed by the pandemic and possible impending doom of society (aren't we already there?) some news flys under the radar. That's where we come in.
