Disorder in the Court

The End of an Error | Episode 3 - Disorder in the Court


Listen Later

Tess and Trevis are back for a third week! Tess talks about Jennifer Mee, who you might recognize after this episode. Trevis discusses qualified immunity and why it might not be as good or innocuous as it sounds. 

Also, Black Lives Matter. If you're wondering how you can help end police brutality, especially as a white person, here is a resource with tons of information and causes. If that is too overwhelming, you can always start small with a small donation for your local bail fund, to the sentencing project, or by watching a documentary about systematic racism (I personally recommend Crime + Punishment on Hulu).
