OWN Spotlight: Where Do We Go From Here?

HOW/WHEN & WHERE TO WATCH: 9 p.m. on OWN, all Discovery networks

Oprah is assembling a panel of black leaders, activists, and artists for a two-night special to air on her OWN and across all of Discovery’s 18 other U.S. networks for in-depth discussions to help offer insight and plans for how the country can move forward in a meaningful, productive way following the civil unrest after the murder of George Floyd. “I’ve been having private conversations with friends and thought leaders about what’s next and where we go from here,” said Oprah Winfrey in a press release. “I thought it would be both of interest and service to bring their ideas, concerns, and comments into a national spotlight.” Politician Stacey Abrams, journalist Charles M. Blow, Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, filmmaker Ava DuVernay (Selma, When They See Us, 13th, Queen Sugar), professor and author Jennifer Eberhardt (author of Biased), journalist and Pulitzer prize-winning founder of the “1619 Project” Nikole Hannah-Jones, historian and author Ibram Kendi (How to Be an Anti-Racist), actor David Oyelowo (Selma), Color of Change founder Rashad Robinson, and NAACP national board member Rev. Dr. William J. Barber II will all engage in that conversation, addressing the questions “What matters now?,” “What matters next?,” and “Where do we go from here?.” There will surely be an Aha! moment or two, hopefully many more. —Gerrad Hall
