Tremaine Emory, founder of Denim Tears, speaks about the inspiration behind his upcoming Converse collaboration at the 1st Annual Kerwin Frost Telethon benefitting the Know Your Rights Camp.
Live from The Berrics in Los Angeles, the 1st Annual Kerwin Frost Telethon Supershow aired on August 16th 2020. The telethon was comprised of performances, educational news report segments, puppets dancing, PSAs, and of course a special Auction all in support of the Know Your Rights Camp.
Colin Kaepernick & Nessa founded the Know Your Rights Camp in response to the continued police brutality and unjust murdering of Black people in the United States. KYRC is designed to serve as a safe space and home base for young kids, specifically Black youth ages 12-18, to educate and empower them through in-depth and localized information in: knowing your rights, knowing your history, holistic health, financial literacy, higher education, STEM education, and youth empowerment. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, they began a relief fund to aid Black and Brown communities disproportionately impacted by the pandemic. In just a few months, they distributed thousands of pounds of food and thousands of PPEs. Also, they began a Legal Defense Initiative in May 2020 in response to the national outcry over the police murder of George Floyd. By partnering with top defense and civil rights lawyers, they provide legal resources for those in need. Together they have granted over $2 million to address the needs arising from these events.
