Show Notes

In the summer of 2020, it appeared the United States was experiencing a racial awakening. The killings of Ahmaud Arbery, George Floyd and Breonna Taylor sparked global protests and declarations for racial justice and equity. Corporations pledged their support to diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives and the Black Lives Matter philosophy. For today’s edition of Feedback Friday on “Closer Look,” Rose is asking guests and listeners, where are we now as a nation, five years later?

 

Guests include:

 

Nsenga Burton, an award-winning journalist and entrepreneur, and the editor-in-chief of The Burton Wire

 

Dr. Maurice Hobson, an author, historian and Africana studies and history professor at Georgia State University
