After the recent shooting of Jacob Blake and the deaths of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor, we’ve seen momentum sparked by the Black Lives Matter movement. NAACP’s Derrick Johnson and Tiffany Loftin discuss how advocacy can advance education, housing, and democracy.

Coming days after both the Democratic and Republican National Convention, the 2020 Virtual March on Washington will set forth a bold new Black agenda — advocating for comprehensive police accountability reform, economic empowerment, and equitable access to health care.

‘Hey, Black America!’ is a new series in partnership with NAACP.
