1st Black UNC head coach "proud" wife is white; Vaccine passports spark debate

BALTIMORE, MD (WEAA) — During Dr. Kaye’s ‘weekly wrap’ she addresses a number of topics and provides listeners with the opportunity to call in and discuss whatever is on their mind. 

 

During the discussion Dr. Kaye weighs in on: 

 

  • Hubert Davis facing backlash for his comments during a news conference. Davis spoke on the significance of being the first Black head coach in University of North Carolina history and how he is “very proud” his wife is white.

“It’s significant that I’m African American and I’m the head coach here. It’s significant…I know that in terms of Division 1 head coaches all around the country, only 26 percent of the head coaches are compromised by minorities, specifically African-Americans… I know that it is significant that I’m fourth African-American head coach in any sport in the history of North Carolina. I’m very proud to be African American. But I’m also very proud that my wife is white, and I’m very proud that my three beautiful, unbelievable kids are a combination of both of us,” Davis said.
 

  • Vaccine passports, documentation that proves you’ve received a COVID-19 vaccine, sparking debate and division. 
  • Are state’s opening up too quickly?
