Today’s episode features Natalie and Derrica Wilson, founders of the Black and Missing Foundation.

Listen as we discuss the critical roles of law enforcement, media and community in bringing awareness and resolution to the cases of missing Black people, as well as how Natalie and Derrica utilize their expertise in these areas to mobilize and provide support to families through the foundation.
