This week we briefly juxtapose the original Minneapolis Police Department report on the death of George Floyd with the facts of the case we now know. Using a sociological lens, we consider how such a technically accurate, but fundamentally inaccurate report could be released–and what it says about the sources of organizational misconduct. And, I recently spoke with Dr. Eulalie Laschever of DePaul University about her recent paper titled "Growth and Decline of Opposing Movements: Gun Control and Gun Rights, 1945-2015." The paper is to be published in the journal Mobilization, and is co-authored by David S. Meyer.
Segment 1 -- Eulalie Laschever on "Growth and Decline of Opposing Movements: Gun Control and Gun Rights, 1945-2015."
Segment 2 -- How could the original Minneapolis Police Department report on the death George Floyd and the known facts of the case be so different? Answers why, with chilling implications
