In this powerful episode, we dive deep into the life of George Floyd, exploring the systemic racism and discrimination he faced throughout his life, as well as the resilience and sense of community that defined his neighborhood, Cuney Homes. We discuss the oppressive mechanisms used historically to keep black people in a certain position, the impact of the criminal justice system on Floyd's life, and the ongoing segregation in education. Join us as we honor George Floyd's memory and work towards a more just and equal society. Visit us at blackhistoryforwhitepeople.com.
