This week, we are re-airing Sophia's conversation with Dr. Melina Abdullah from 2019. Dr. Abdullah is an expert on race, gender, class and social movements. She was part of the original group of organizers who formed Black Lives Matter and she is a professor and Chair of Pan African Studies at California State University, Los Angeles. She joined Sophia on "Work in Progress" to talk about the moment the Black Lives Matter movement came together, white privilege, how and where these systems originated, how we can speak up, and more.

Work in Progress with Sophia Bush features frank, funny, personal, professional, and sometimes even political conversations with people who inspire Sophia about how they’ve gotten to where they are, and where they think they’re still going. These discussions stem from her "aha" moment of realizing you are allowed to be both a masterpiece and a work in progress, simultaneously.
