Thursday, July 10, 2020, 1-2 pm Courageous Conversations with Sheree welcomes the Founder of "BlackOut Day 2020" Calvin Martyr, Savannah Coordinator, Natalie Leggette and guest William Lee, Jr. Tune in to hear exactly what it is and what it is not. Join us this Thursday on 107.5 FM or WRUU.org.    Blackout Day 2020 movement encourages supporters to use “economic power” to fight racial injustice. Texas resident Calvin Martyr wants to bring the black community together in economic solidarity through a nationwide movement called Blackout 2020. The death of George Floyd while in Minneapolis police custody has struck a chord in the hearts of Americans concerned about the mistreatment of black residents in the United States. The Facebook group #BlackoutDay2020 was created May 8, but since Floyd’s death on May 25, the private group has rapidly grown to more than 720,000 members as people search for peaceable ways to spark change. And it continues to gain tens of thousands of new members each day. The movement focuses on July 7, 2020, a day when supporters have committed to only spending money at black-owned businesses; this includes banks, grocery stores, gas stations, hair salons and all forms of commerce. "We're going to not spend our dollars in the economy," Martyr says in a video explaining his mission. "I believe, we believe, that if we unite enough people for one day to not spend their dollars, it will make an impact in the economy, and they will take notice."
