29:52Now PlayingIn a full-page ad in Sunday's Detroit Free Press, the leaders of Black-owned media companies -- including Byron Allen and Ice Cube -- accused General Motors CEO Mary Barra of racism for refusing to meet with them to discuss advertising opportunities. The ad, which was signed by the heads of seven Black-owned media companies, alleges that Barra refused to meet with them "consistently, over time and after multiple requests." They also asked for an hour-long Zoom meeting with Barra, or her resignation.
