"People don't deserve to die because of the color of their skin. It's gone on forever and it's just been accepted as a part of society, kind of like school shootings."
Leigh Ann and Michael Govier of 'First Day Pod' took a powerful stand against police brutality and systemic racism by participating in a podcast blackout on June 2nd, 2020. This episode is a heartfelt tribute, as they solemnly read the names of African-Americans who lost their lives to police violence over the past eight years. It's not just a list; it's a call to remember and honor each individual.
The hosts express their unwavering support for Black Lives Matter and emphasize the urgent need for cultural change. They highlight the importance of the silent majority finding their voices and speaking out against injustice. Leigh Ann and Michael also touch on the power of forgiveness and the necessity of honest conversations in fostering understanding and progress. They hold a hopeful vision for the future, inspired by the multiculturalism of the younger generation.
This episode isn't just about listening; it's about reflecting on our roles in creating a more just and equal society.
