S.7 E.30: Discussing the Book The Summer of 2020: with Drs. Andre Johnson and Amanda Nell Edgar

Profane Faith

Continuing on with part 2 of our season finale double header! Long time friend Dr. Andre Johson is back to talk about his new book with co-author Dr. Amanda Nell Edgar. Be sure to listen to the 1st of the two as well! See you all in Season 8! In the wake of George Floyd’s murder in May 2020, protests broke out in Minneapolis and quickly spread across the United States. National unrest led to the resurgence of the Black Lives Matter movement and added to calls for justice in other American cities, including Los Angeles, Atlanta, Tulsa, and Louisville, Kentucky, where only months earlier, Breonna Taylor was killed by police. By some estimates, BLM protesters numbered between fifteen million and twenty-six million in the US and abroad. http://www.aejohnsonphd.com/ https://x.com/aejohnsonphd https://www.upress.state.ms.us/Books/T/The-Summer-of-2020 https://x.com/amandanelledgar https://pageandpodium.com/ https://a.co/d/dnxjeeo
