S1E1 - The Latino Community and BLM

COVID-19 has disproportionately impacted black and brown communities and highlighted racial and economic inequalities. We discuss these inequities and their intersection with the Black Lives Matter protests inspired by the murder of George Floyd.

We also discuss the role of the Latino community in the BLM movement and the precautions Latinos participating in this movement can take in order to ensure their health.
