As we close out Black History Month, we finish our BOLD conversation about criminal justice with Lawrence Bartley who talks about rehabilitation versus retaliation, why private prisons are failing us and gives us all some homework assignments. You can find Lawrence at the Marshall Project where he is a journalist. He is also a frequent CNN and MSNBC contributor.

As we continue to celebrate Black History Month, we dive into one of the most divisive areas of our bold conversations - criminal justice! Lawrence Bartley spent close to 30 years in prison. Now with the Marshall Project, this frequent CNN and MSNBC contributor joins us to discuss his experience within a biased system and where we go from here!

3 "I"s have dominated news coverage over the past few weeks - Insurrection, Inauguration and Impeachment.

We promised you the occasional episode where we would do a little "teaching". Well, "promises kept" (see what we did there)! Join us for a discussion on unconscious bias with a focus on gender bias.

Instead of continually trying to channel women's thoughts, we invited a couple of our favorite women on the podcast to give us their reactions to the ongoing saga that is the 2020 election. Jen and Nicole share their astute (and funny) takes on the ongoing election saga, why it played out the way it did and chances for national unity. And, yes, they are smarter than us which is why you will want to listen to them! Hosted by Sean Leavitt and Clayton Sinclair.

The 2020 Presidential election is over, sort of... almost, maybe? On the last episode we talked about the divide between black and white folk in the context of the 2020 election.

Listen in as we break it down. Hosted by Sean Leavitt and Clayton Sinclair.

The 2020 Presidential election is over, sort of... almost, maybe? Sean and Clayton provide "instant" reactions to all that has transpired and breakdown the continuing divide between white people and black people. Yes, it's another bold conversation!

Do Brown folk sometimes get a pass from white supremacy for being lighter skinned? Are Brown issues drowned out because of the BLM movement?

Ever wonder if the world will be in better hands with our future generations? If the "next generation" will grow up to behave a little less divisively than yours? Well, wonder no more! Declan (son of Sean) and Clay (son of Clayton) drop some amazing insights as they talk about race from the perspective of their generation. They address what's happening in the streets, on social media and the work that everyone will need to continue to do to end systemic racial oppression!
