Emergency Episode #2: Beyond Black Squares

#016 - On Tuesday, June 2, 2020, organizers and advocates for the Black Lives Matter movement called for people to show solidarity for black lives by posting a black square on folks' social media accounts, specifically Instagram. Within the American rowing community, this was done by many. Now, many are wondering what the next steps are for moving the needle forward with regard to the dialogue surrounding race in rowing
On Wednesday, June 10, 2020, Denise Aquino and Patricia Destine presented a webinar for USRowing under the same title, "Beyond Black Squares." This episode is similar but shorter than that presentation.
We hope that the conversation in this podcast helps us all in the rowing world -- no matter your race -- to unify the rowing sport through diversity.
