Her participation, part of the annual Muriel Petioni, M.D. Awards Program, is scheduled from 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. Eastern Time on Sunday, July 18.

Recognized for the “speech of a generation” for her remarks at a Minneapolis press conference following the murder of George Floyd, she is author of “State of Emergency.” Both Time Magazine and Fortune have recognized her for her leadership and influence.

Mallory is the co-founder of Until Freedom, an organization working to address systemic and racial injustice. She is also a partner in the recently launched “Street Politicians” podcast on iHeart Radio’s Black Effect Network.
