Just why might black Americans be disproportionately affected by the coronavirus outbreak? In the eyes of Bob Woodson, why is the prominence of the 1619 Project deeply troubling, especially now that a key contributor has won a Pulitzer Prize for her work?



And how should we be looking at the terrible killing of Ahmaud Arbery, a black man, by a white former police officer? Is there a bigger picture we’re missing? In this episode, we sit down with Bob Woodson, a grassroots leader in the black community. He’s the President and Founder of the Woodson Center. He is also a recipient of the 2008 Bradley Prize and the Presidential Citizens Award.
