Jaccob Slavin: "It’s hard to see what’s happening in our country right now. It’s hard to live with the fact that Emersyn is going to grow up in this world. We want to see change happen. There is a long way to go."

More from Slavin: "Over the course of my daughter's life, I've been trying to educate myself on these matters. I'm still learning. ... Listening to Black people, to the people who are actually experiencing what's going on right now is really big."
