Blackout Episode

Jun 05, 2020, 04:00 AM

Hello everyone, with the current situation in the US we didn’t feel comfortable releasing our original episode, binge's & Florida men stories seem silly in times like these. Although at this moment the four men involved in the murder of George Floyd have been arrested, that does not mean the fight is over. Breonna Taylor was shot in her bed eight times after plain clothes police officers forced their way into her home, there has still been no justice for her. There is no justice for countless other black Americans who have also been killed by the police. 

We are allies. We are not perfect, but we will continue to educate ourselves and welcome opening up the conversation even if it’s uncomfortable.
