KMOJ's Community Viewpoint

 The Memory Still Hurts
It’s been five years since the world watched George Floyd take his last breath under the knee of injustice. Five years since Minneapolis shook the globe and forced a reckoning. And still, the pain feels fresh. The anger still burns. The trauma still lingers.
In Part 1, we reflect. We hold space for the grief. For the outrage. For the memories etched into our minds—of protests, chants, tears, and a community demanding change.
What has changed since May 25, 2020? What hasn’t? How has this moment shaped us, our children, and the city we call home?
We’ll hear from community leaders, activists, and everyday people who were there—on the front lines and in the background—making history with their pain, their power, and their presence.

What is KMOJ's Community Viewpoint?

“KMOJ’s Community Viewpoint” is a podcast series created by KMOJ-89.9 FM Radio “The People’s Station”. These conversations explore issues and perspectives critical to the health and well-being of all members of the communities of color we serve.
Since first going “on the air” in 1976, KMOJ-89.9-FM continues its legacy as the community-oriented station located in Minneapolis, Minnesota airing a predominantly urban adult contemporary format.
“KMOJ’s Community Viewpoint” is one way the station achieves its mission of engaging, supporting and empowering Communities of Color to elevate the way of life of the people of its community and to challenge social and economic disparities, and the persistent consequences of historic racism.
The station call letters, “KMOJ” were inspired by the Swahili word “UMOJA” which means “Unity.” http://kmojfm.com/
