Don’t Get TOO Comfortable: PSA for Hip Hop Proximate White Folks
Arrests and convictions don't have to be the end of your story! This week Eboni highlights a story that shows the beauty of second chances. We're also digging into how DJ Vlad turned Karen real quick on social media and the ways white folks love proximity to Black culture but don't love Black people. An estimated 70 million to 100 million Americans—roughly 1 in 3 U.S. adults—have an incarceration, conviction, or arrest record according to the Center for American Progress. The Clean Slate Initiative believes everyone deserves a second chance and believes that people should not be defined by their criminal records. Read CEO Sheena Meade's Op-Ed in Essence Magazine. Holding Court with Eboni K. Williams is produced by Uppity Productions LLC. Hosts & Executive Producers: Eboni K. Williams and Dustin Ross.
