In a week in which we are still raw from watching the killing of George Lloyd on TV, and we are still mourning the killing of Breonna Taylor - both by the police - we asked the question, "How Can We Create a Peaceful World?". Go here to listen to the broadcast. This episode also includes my interview with Carthenia Jefferson, a member of Black Women for Positive Change, who hold the annual Week of Nonviolence. Many people in the U.S. are not aware that we also have a problem with Black deaths in police custody here in the UK, but we clearly do. Plus Naimah Latif from "The Female Solution" is organising a Global Peace Summit for the end of August. Listen to the broadcast for details.
