Episode 5-George Floyd: Rage, Uprising, and Response
This episode focuses on the outcry of African-Americans in the wake of George Floyd's death in Minneapolis.

Jake offers ways that white people can step into the responsibility of engaging other white people around the realities of racial injustice and discrimination. Jake also discusses the idolization of white allyship versus the power of authentic presence around racial issues.
