As America’s only Black prime-time anchor, Lemon’s daily monologues on racism and America’s systemic flaws speak for his millions of fans. Lemon was the leading voice on CNN guiding viewers through the death of George Floyd and a summer of nationwide protests and riots. Now, in an urgent, deeply personal riveting plea that weaves in some of his own experiences here on the East End, Mr. Lemon shows us all how deep our problems lie and what we can do to begin to fix them.
