I had the honor of being part of a panel discussion on change
Why say Black Lives Matter and not All Lives Matter? How do white friends help, do we say I am your ally in all of this? We will ask the uncomfortable questions to ignite the change
Co-presented with the Point Park University Center for Media Innovation, Pittsburgh Black Media Federation - PBMF and YaJagoff.
YaJagoff Co-hosts John and Rachael will be joined by Olga George, Jim Rooney, Frzy, Andrew Conte, Felicia Mycyk, Sarah Aziz and Arthur Moats. The uncomfortable, difficult, racial inequality questions do, and not for controversy, but to encourage listening, understanding and change. Discussion titled “The Change Exchange,” available on multiple platforms including Ya Jagoff Facebook Live. Pittsburgh notables have agreed to not only participate as panelists but help develop the discussion through compiling the difficult questions. The panelists include: Jim Rooney, author of A Different Way to Win, Dan Rooney’s Story, Emmy and Grammy Award winning artist, FRZY, Public Speaker, Leadership Coach, and Ambridge Connection Publisher, Felicia Mycyk, Sarah Aziz, Program Manager of Festivals and Special Projects at Pittsburgh Cultural Trust, Arthur Moats, self-motivation author, radio personality, and retired Pittsburgh Steeler, Andrew Conte, Center For Media Innovation Director at Point Park University and author of The Color of Sundays, a book about professional football and civil rights, and Vice President of the Pittsburgh Black Media Federation, creator of OGCooking and Emmy-nominated Producer, Olga George.
