On This Week’s Episode:
Think back to the summer of 2020, when a series of violent, highly publicized killings of Black Americans led to outrage and a national movement to eradicate racism and its evils. That movement gave way to a backlash that’s playing out in schools, businesses and the federal government. The pushback has only intensified since Donald J. Trump returned to office.
In this episode, we look at stories about Black people who found themselves caught in the middle of the country’s shift away from diversity, equity and inclusion.
