Activism and advocacy for racial justice continues on various levels including international stages. In the nation's capital and Kenosha, Wisconsin, residents continue to protest for #FreeAndSafe communities for people of color. In solidarity with the Movement for Black Lives, basketball, baseball and hockey teams did not participate in scheduled games, and arrived to arenas and fields donned in Black Lives Matter shirts. Tennis star Naomi Osaka led a work stoppage in the middle of a tournament and former NBA champion Kenny Smith walked off a live TNT broadcast in support of NBA players.
It is time for change and this sea change is indicative that change is near. Advancement Project National Office Executive Director Judith Browne Dianis co-hosts today's Sunday brunch discussion on The Sip to address police brutality, racial inequality and community empowerment - and the women leading the fight.
Today's guests include:
- Morgan Tuck, Forward, Seattle Storm, WNBA
- Paula Madison, Author, Business Owner & Former Owner & CEO, Los Angeles Sparks, WNBA
- Ebonie Riley, DC Bureau Chief, National Action Network
