Forty years ago, 90% of media outlets were spread across 50 companies.
Now, just 5 companies control 90% of the media market.

Viola's story is a reminder that racism is alive and well in the USA. I can't fix the atrocities experienced by this community or change that I was never taught about them. What I can do is share their story now and encourage you all to read it and do the same.
