Summary

In this episode I discuss racism as a whole and it being so prevalent in the US today. I talk about what I've learned, how I've grown, and ways I've been educating myself and speaking out. I include some of your stories and opinions that you wrote in and I thank you for participating in this important discussion.

Hey everyone and welcome to this week's episode of Happy Hour hosted by yours

0:05.6

truly as always at Gretchen. It's so weird it to be recording this right now

0:11.1

because I feel like I forget how to podcast. It's been two weeks and I'm gonna

0:16.5

talk about it later but it's funny because that last episode I had up I had

0:22.2

taken the week off before that because I was just feeling really discouraged and
