3.5 In The News: Lakers and Heat Advance, Black Women are still the most disrespected, Black Lives Matter continues to be misrepresented Sep 29, 2020

Show notes

Why does Black Lives Matter continue to be represented and marketed as a terrorist organization by the media? Why does the image of Black people crying about the Breonna Taylor grand jury decision indicate “tempers flaring”? Why do some Black men believe that it is okay to traumatize Black women, lie about the trauma, “apologize”, then monetarily benefit off the trauma disguising it as art? The ladies discuss all and more on today’s episode of Don’t Be Pressed.
