Content Warning: Racism, Police Brutality, Slavery

It’s The Black History Month Episode!

We’re talking George Floyd, Rodney King, Breonna Taylor, the history of slavery, and protesting in the time of coronavirus and how you can be an ally through this country's current social awakening!

Throw those clothes in the dryer, pull up a cuppa, sit back and tune in to another episode of Laundry and Other Mysteries with your host, Desiree Hickson, also known as The Laundry Diva.
