Racism, violence, and our future together

Tonight (June 1) we’ll join WNYC and Minnesota Public Radio for America: Are We Ready? Racism, Violence, and Our Future Together.

The show will convene a national conversation in this urgent moment and broadcasting on WITF along over 250 stations across the country.

America: Are We Ready? Racism, Violence, and Our Future Together provides a space for you to discuss the recent news stories that have sparked outrage, grief, and fear: the police killings of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor, the murder of Ahmaud Arbery, the potentially deadly false accusations by a white woman against a black man in Central Park, the stark racial disparity in COVID-19 infections and deaths, as well as the response by elected officials to these issues.

This special discussion is hosted by WNYC’s Kai Wright (The United States of Anxiety), Brian Lehrer (The Brian Lehrer Show), Tanzina Vega (The Takeaway) and MPR’s Angela Davis.

Listen Monday June 1 8pm to 10pm on WITF 89.5 and 93.3.
