#Charlottesville
In episode no. 14, Jeff and Laura take a minute to pause and discuss what’s been happening in this week’s recent events in Charlottesville, VA after a violent rally/protest over the taking down of the confederate statue of General Robert E. Lee. We are still forming our thoughts, but we do think it is a critical time to open up the dialogue about social justice/racial issues embedded within this protest, the messaging and response to the event, and what’s been happening since #Charlottesville in the United States of America.

What is BreakDrink Podcast?
BreakDrink is an occasional chat with Jeff Jackson and Laura Pasquini about life, work, and random stuff. There’s a good chance you’ll hear these co-hosts talk about their thoughts on current events, ukuleles, the NBA, podcasts, higher ed, rescue dogs, research, books, technology, and tacos… not in any particular order. They may even invite a friend to the pod to chat. Really, it’s a podcast to encourage you to take a break from the day and have a friend fill your cup.
