Miscellaneous
Erin and Lawrence may need a longer show if the second half of 2020 is anything like the first half. Amidst all the chaos that this year has brought in just six months, larger questions have begun to circulate around the country and E & L attempt to tackle each one of them: Is the NBA making a comeback? Will all of the players be apart of an NBA comeback? Will the NBA players organize a collective sit-out? Will the NBA be something that is sacrificed for the sake of change? How does the NFL’s $250 million donation to Black Lives Matter fair into the conversation as we discuss Drew Bree’s comments and Lebron James’s retort? Was Jordan’s donation enough? Did NASCAR make big changes, starting with its own confederate flag ban? How many accomplishments and changes are enough to honor the goals of all who organized, protested and rioted recently? How do we handle those who we want to call in and call to action? Do we ridicule? Ignore? Encourage? Can we identify “Karen’s” birthplace and reasoning for utilizing the police as her own personal muscle? How does the Rayshard Brooks murder even occur in today’s climate? What does “Defund the Police” even mean? Yes, our determined duo answers all of those questions and more. So join us as Erin and Lawrence once again go Beyond The Journal.
