Description
In lieu of our regular pop culture introduction, we address the murder of George Floyd, the protests and rioting across the US and internationally for racial injustice and whether the social media activism we have seen take over our feeds has actually been useful. Here are the protest dates and times for Australians wanting to participate on Saturday, 6th June: Sydney: 3-5pm @ 20 Lee Street in Chippendale Melbourne: 2-5pm @ Parliament House Steps Adelaide: 12- 1:30pm @ Victoria Square Brisbane: 1-5pm @ King George Square Canberra: 3pm @ Embassy of the United States Head to these websites for educational resources, information on how to be a better ally and how and where to donate if you have the ability to: http://centennialbeauty.com/how-to-support-black-lives-matter-as-a-non-black-person/ https://www.pedestrian.tv/news/how-to-be-an-active-ally-after-black-out-tuesday/ https://www.zeefeed.com.au/blog/how-to-support-george-floyd-protest-australia We also discuss the publishing of the Forbes article (https://www.forbes.com/sites/chasewithorn/2020/05/29/inside-kylie-jennerss-web-of-lies-and-why-shes-no-longer-a-billionaire/) that strips Kylie Jenner of her billionaire status.

And do we think she really lied about being a billionaire?
