Show Notes

The Did you know Segment… it’s back!  Where is it? What happened to it? Ok, it’s really back, just not this week. *smile* 

Happy belated Father’s Day to our listeners! 

Lisa shares her experience attending the Juneteenth celebration this year versus last year the mood was different for a number of reasons.  Clearly, 2020 was unprecedented on so many levels, no one could’ve foretold the life changing events!

On this episode of Active Allyship…it’s more than a #hashtag! The ladies discuss Juneteenth!  It’s officially recognized as a Federal Holiday!!!!  A huge “Thank you” to Ms. Opal Lee for all of your efforts to make this happen! 

Listen to her story! 

Sunni and Lisa discuss the importance of having this information shared broadly… hint: Critical Race Theory.  This would be a whole other show and we do plan to discuss it in-depth as well.  Trust.

Lisa shares a blog discussing disappointing with the “paid” holiday and what it doesn’t do.  Of course you’ll have to listen to hear the opinion.  Sunni isn’t having any of it… yikes.  Ease up on the current Administration, they came in office with a huge disadvantage, huge!  

Social media will set you up!  Do your research folks, do your research and use trusted sources.  Otherwise, it’s a distraction from the real issues. Don’t be distracted.

How about we all celebrate Juneteenth - having the day off to do better and be better holistically - European Americans can take this as a day of learning, by committing to understanding another community for the benefit of humanity.
