Julio is joined by guest co-host and ITT All-Star Wajahat Ali. They talk with two ITT All-Stars Andrea González-Ramírez, senior writer at GEN by Medium, and Renée Graham, columnist for The Boston Globe, about the passing of civil rights leaders Reverend C.T. Vivian and Representative John Lewis. They also get into the actions of federal law enforcement in Portland, Oregon, the decision of the Washington football team to change its racist name, and the rising coronavirus cases — especially in Puerto Rico.
This episode was co-produced by Nicole Rothwell and Nour Saudi.
