ST. LOUIS 5 On Your Side is dedicated to advancing the conversation about race. To support this initiative, the station will air its second
RACE: Listen. Learn. Live. special, dedicated to Black women who share their personal memories and perspectives on race.
The new locally produced special will be a virtual conversation with seven women and moderated by 5 On Your Side’s Kelly Jackson. Topics include raising Black children, education, COVID-19, politics, and their own experiences with racism.
“These are brilliant women at the top of their fields, yet they all share painful stories of racism and racial inequalities,” said Jackson. “They’ve taken their experiences, wisdom and sheer determination to lead the cause of creating a more just community. I’m so proud of this special, and I urge everyone to watch with open hearts and minds.”
