Ari Melber with Trymaine Lee and Brittany Cooper on Juneteenth

The location of the Juneteenth rally is in the Boston area. I think the park is in Dorchester.

 

Ari’s guests were excellent. Their historical comments, thoughts, and observations were profound.

Now I have to find out more about them.
