On May 31, 2020, Chicago and its surrounding communities shut down their public transit systems entirely in an unprecedented move to suppress Black Lives Matter protesters' free right to assemble. In this unscheduled, emergency episode we talk about what happened, why the city did it, and how you can continue to protest despite attempts made to break solidarity.

Intro to this episode is the poem “Look How They Treat Us” by Saul Williams
