When confronting modern justice claims about racism and reparations, differences in opinions are inevitable. Still, why has this been such a contentious issue in America?
Professor Karen Hunter is joined this week by Yvette Carnell of ADOS and Dr. Randall Pinkett. ADOS Advocacy Foundation is a grassroots organization that stands for American Descendants of Slavery. Yvette, who is CEO, speaks on the controversy the organization has faced, the push for reparations and more.
How can we create a collective Black agenda to make progress, bridge the divide and create a more equitable America?
