Listen "Make the World Better | Dinner Plus Drinks #24"
Episode Synopsis
We start this podcast with a discussion of the murder of George Floyd by members of the Minneapolis Police Department. As white people, we'll never know what it's like to be treated differently by police because of the color of our skin, but we have a responsibility to try to understand, and then do something to make the world better. We discuss our feelings, the conflict we have between still enjoying our lives while acknowledging the tragedy, and share ideas on how we can take small steps to make the world better. We hope our discussion helps you process your feelings on this incredibly complex topic.If you're not interested in this discussion, skip ahead to 6:30 for a more normal podcast listening experience.
