Sinopse

In this episode, Dr. William Ross joins our co-hosts in a timely conversation about reparations in St. Louis. In March 2023, the City of St. Louis announced the formation of a nine-member Reparations Commission, naming Dr. Ross as Vice Chair and Kayla Reed as Chair. This announcement stemmed from 50 local organizations unified grassroots advocacy that began in December 2021.  Dr. Ross, the Associate Dean for Diversity of Washington University School of Medicine, and a social justice trailblazer in the field of public health, views the group’s charge through a lens of history, justice, and action. Kayla Reed emphasizes the role of truth-telling and the role of repairing the violence, harm, and neglect against Black St. Louisans. This week's Music Minute features the song "Matter of Time" by @Mvstermind.
