Daymond John’s Mission to Boost Black Businesses

First Of All with Victor Blackwell

Daymond John of “Shark Tank” joins Victor in studio after hosting his annual “Black Entrepreneurs Day”. He shares his thoughts on the state of the economy, tips for small businesses and dishes on the refresh of his iconic clothing brand “FUBU”.

First, Congresswoman Yvette Clarke joins Victor to discuss a bill being pushed by Republicans called the “Dismantle DEI Act,” and how she plans to lead the Congressional Black Caucus as a 2nd Trump term approaches.

Plus, Victor shares an update in the story of a father in Las Vegas who was shot and killed by police after calling 911 for help. Brandon Durham’s sister, Diane Wright, reacts to the shooting and lays out what the family wants to see happen next.

Also, Victor asks: does an optional curriculum that was just approved for public schools in Texas gloss over the reality of racism and slavery in American history? Texas Tribune reporter Jaden Edison reveals what he found when he dug into the lesson plan for kids K-5.

And later, this week’s “I See You!” shoutout is for Sophia Park, who just became the youngest person to pass California’s bar exam…at age 17! And that’s not the only surprising part of this up-and-coming legal star’s story.
