Lakeisha Lee, chair of Minnesota’s Missing and Murdered African American Women Task Force (MMAAWTF), talks about how her life and career changed in the aftermath of her sister’s murder. Lakeisha details the changes held in Minnesota’s Safe Harbor Law, the launch of Brittany’s Place, and the process and outcomes of the MMAAWTF.
Disruptive Narratives with Dr. Brittany Lewis highlights people who are impacted by histories and systemic processes of neglect and disinvestment, but do not often have a seat at the table and may not feel seen.
This is space for people radically re-imagining a path forward but not necessarily a space for those who are unpersuaded by the need for a better world where Black futures matter.
We are focused on sharing perspectives that are often unshared or unheard because they challenge what we think we know. In this program, guests are the experts of their own reality.
Disruptive Narratives is produced by KMOJ-FM and Ampers, Diverse Radio for Minnesota’s Communities with support from the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund. Online at https://kmojfm.com/
