An open discussion on racism/institutionalized racism

10PM to 12 PM EST tonight.

Considering recent events and the escalating fight for racial justice, it occurs to us that people want to talk or just listen to those who have something worth hearing.
Since we have the ability to provide such a forum we are doing so tonight via our blogtalkradio site.

To start we will be playing the 5 minute 41 second version of the Donald Sterling clip.
It's always better to speak on something you've actually heard.

Our 1st hour will be an open line call in. All are welcome to join the conversation and expected to be respectful. To speak with the host dial (347) 202-0314
 
Our second hour will be 4 guest panelists of varied backgrounds, locations and vocations.
The topic is racism/institutionalized racism. Our panelists will offer a perspective or point they feel should be heard and then will present a round table question for all of our guests to offer their own opinions and listeners to consider. These are not "racism" experts by any means any more than someone who has felt it's sting for a lifetime is an expert. They are activists and leaders in their communities across America and their voices count.
We thank you for your participation.
