Our Seat Our Table: Leadership Lounge

This is a special episode where Barbara Chandler and Co-Host LaVonda Wilder and Andrew Browne share personal feelings about The Trail of Derek Chauvin, Minneapolis Police Officer, responsible for the killing of George Floyd.

Show Notes

Host Barbara Chandler, Co-Hosts LaVonda Wilder and Andrew Browne discuss their emotions around the repeat of African American communities being re-traumatized as The Trail of Derek Chauvin opened this week; the discussion includes Florida’s “anti riot bill”, as another form of Jim Crow  which is meant to intimidate Black people from protesting after seeing police officers kill family members and close friends--at the same time while seeking Justice for George Floyd. Listeners will hear heartfelt stories from the Hosts as they navigate the necessary conversations.
