What does it mean to be Black in America during one of the most polarizing political moments in modern history? In this candid fireside chat, journalist Don Lemon sits down with NAACP President & CEO Derrick Johnson to examine the state of Black America in the Trump era. Together, they’ll unpack the political, cultural, and social realities facing Black communities—from civil rights rollbacks to rising activism—and explore how resilience, advocacy, and collective power can shape a more just future.
This Blackweek discussion is proudly sponsored by Shipt. We’re grateful for their generous support and commitment to right-sizing industries to help create more opportunity for equity and ownership.
