My conversation with Cheryl Dorsey, the President of Echoing Green, was recorded on the third anniversary of George Floyd’s murder. It was a perfect opportunity for us to reflect on how far America has come to fulfilling its promises of racial equity.
Cheryl speaks about the barriers to entry people of color face and how these very leaders are overcoming the odds and paving the way towards a better America.
