June 17, 2021 Ep. 468 - If Joe Biden believes police only have a few bad apples, he should prosecute them and prove it to us.
One of the single easiest victories Joe Biden could have right now with the Black voters who put him into office would be prosecuting the police from all of the worst cases of police violence of the past 10 years.

June 02, 2021 Ep. 464 - Reparations for the Tulsa Race Massacre should be a no-brainer
100 years ago on this very day, the community of Greenwood, known as Black Wall Street, in Tulsa, Oklahoma was nothing but smoldering hot ash after it was bombed and burned and looted not just by white Oklahoman's, but by the local government.

May 24, 2021 Ep. 463 - Police don't make us safe
Across the country, as certain types of crime have increased, people are defaulting to the same tired answer we've seen before... more police and more money for the police. But this actually doesn't work. At all. And for Black communities, it can actually make things much worse.
