Special: Why Facebook and Hollywood aren't anti-racist, w/Color of Change's Rashad Robinson
Listen now
Description
There's no quick fix to 400 years of oppression, says Color of Change's Rashad Robinson. One of the largest racial justice organizations in the U.S., Color of Change pressures decision-makers in business and government to enact systemic change. In 2020 Color of Change has seen its membership swell — along with its impact. Rashad's group railed against Hollywood's reflexive pro-police agenda, forcing TV shows "Cops" and "Live PD" off the air, and launched the Stop Hate for Profit campaign to hold tech companies accountable for what happens on social platforms. By working together, says Rashad, we can make a lasting difference.
