On “What’s the buzz?” we frequently discuss black music, art and culture, and we do not feel comfortable staying silent while having a platform in the midst of everything going on. To say nothing about the events surrounding this past week is ignorant, especially if we were going to do a podcast with topics not related to the relevant and vital issues currently addressed by the news.

We stand with all black people on the UIUC campus, in this country and everywhere. Racism plagues this country on individual and institutional levels, and those who have platforms have a responsibility to speak out against racism and promote change.

This week we will not be publishing a usual “What’s the buzz?” episode. Instead, we will be having a discussion about everything going on, focusing on the facts in order to help educate anyone who is conflicted or wants to learn more about the Black Lives Matter movement. That episode was released today and is linked if you’re interested in listening.

We hope everyone is staying safe and educated during these difficult times.
