ALT The WNET Group statement on the verdict of the George Floyd murder trial:
To many people who watched every moment of this televised trial, today's verdict will mean the end of the story. But for The WNET Group this story is ongoing. In addition to understanding what happened and how the jury reached its verdict, The WNET Group will continue to respond to core issues of the trial—social inequity, systemic racism, policing—in our programming and our community convenings.
Beginning Wednesday, April 28, The WNET Group presents “New American Dream,” a 5-week series of virtual forums on disrupting systemic racism and envisioning the nation beyond it. These weekly virtual convenings are where voices of BIPOC will be heard, amplified and channeled into solutions-based content. Join us.
