Mediaite | June 4, 2020

“Late-night hosts Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel, Seth Meyers, Jimmy Fallon, Conan O’Brien, and James Corden all discussed the Black Lives Matter movement and racism with their guests on Wednesday night, working out ways to pursue justice following George Floyd’s killing.

Meyers invited Ramy star Ramy Youssef and co-founder of the Black Lives Matter Movement Patrisse Cullors for a conversation about racism and police brutality, and the guests ultimately suggested ways to help create change.

‘White people are definitely best at racism,’ Youssef joked. ‘They’re doing it on, like a professional NBA level, but I do think that there are other groups in there where you’re like, oh you guys are playing some Euro League racism. You wish you could be in the NBA. And I really feel like calling that out in our own communities.’

‘So much of our work is about not just black death, but the fight for black life,’ Cullors added. ‘Right now we’re in a moment where the entire country, and I argue the entire world is trying to reevaluate its relationship to black people.’”
