[This episode originally aired on 10/21/2019] Gen Z is tired of being silenced politically and no one represents this truth better than today’s guest, Nupol Kiazolu (@nupol_justice). She’s Miss Liberia 2019-2020; listed on Teen Vogue’s 21 Under 21; the President of Black Lives Matter Greater New York; Founder/CEO of Vote 2000, and a Hampton ℅ 2022 student. On this episode, Nupol gets all the way real about the trauma and triumphs of putting action into activism. She details how the death of Trayvon Martin pushed her into activism and what it was like to be on the front lines of the historic Charlottesville protests. She also gives the best advice to other young people who want to get involved and stand up for what they believe in. Check out Nupol on @bet’s CopWatch America.
