On Tuesday's show: Early voting begins today in the March primary election and continues through March 1. We preview what's on the ballot.
Also this hour: We discover what sociologist Michael Sierra-Arévalo learned from spending more than a thousand hours riding with police officers around the country, which he details in his book, The Danger Imperative. He explains how the perception of a "war on cops" has affected law enforcement -- and the public's encounters with police.
Then, the issue of racism is deeply complex, and, historically, it’s not been as simple as white discrimination against people of color. Sometimes a member of a group that’s often discriminated against can discriminate themselves. That’s a subject Fordham University law professor and race relations expert Tanya Hernández explores in her book Racial Innocence. We hear an excerpt of her recent hourlong conversation on I See U with Eddie Robinson.
And the film Reality Bites premiered in movie theaters 30 years ago this week. The movie is remembered today by some as the quintessential Gen X movie. Whether it is or not, film critic Joe Leydon reminds us it may be the quintessential Houston movie.
