Content Warning: Descriptions of violence & lynching

A bit of a heavy one this week as we discuss two people whose lives were cut short by violence. Emily discusses Alberta Jones, all of the barriers she broke, her connection with Muhammad Ali, and her still unsolved mystery. Then Brenton discusses the murder of Emmett Till who's killers were acquitted on the same day as Brionna Taylor's.
