Exavier Pope, Esq. graciously holds our hand and breaks down the systematic racial injustice that white communities have turned a blind eye too for far too long. In our candid conversation, we confront our nation’s social unrest—and leave much room for hope and optimism for what is ahead as we earnestly move towards an equitable society. Exavier shares his mindful awakening to an inspired life of serving others by way of social justice activism and his high-vibe hip-hop yoga class.
