We recommend you watch it first and then listen to our fascinating conversation about the “Black and Missing Foundation” — a Maryland-based non-profit that works tirelessly with the families of missing people of color and the incredible founders, a sister-in-law team Derrica and Natalie Wilson.
Soledad explains how these incredible women use their backgrounds, Derrica as former law enforcement and Nathalie who is in public relations, to pursue leads and advocate for families of the missing while at the same time working full-time jobs and raising their own families. Soledad gives some examples on why access to mainstream media for families of missing people of color can be lifesaving and life changing.
