Jaws of Justice Radio investigates how we can achieve justice from a system of laws deeply rooted in economic, social and political inequality.  We want to dispel misconceptions created by the news and entertainment industry, politicians and our educational system. We hope you will listen.

Since 1983, IREHR has served as a social justice organization dedicated to standing against bigotry and defending democracy and human rights. They unmask movements, organizations, and individuals that threaten democracy and human rights. They support movements advancing human rights. They use investigative research and strategic organizing to counter racism, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, nativism, homophobia, and other forms of bigotry.

Devin Burghart gave a frightening history of white supremacy terrorism in this country. Burghart traces the current strain of bigotry and hatred evident in parts of MAGA back to earlier movements including Asiatic Exclusion League of 1907, home and church bombings of civil rights activists of the 1960s, the anti-immigrant movement of the 1970s, the emergence of the Tea Party, and the current day neo reactionary, anarcho-libertarian "tech bros", i.e., Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Alex Carp, and Curtis Yarvin.

“From Margins to Mainstream” - How the racist right has grown in power and influence presented by Devin Burghart, Executive Director Institute for Research and Education in Human Rights.

On Jaws of Justice, we examine how to find justice in our society.  Justice will not be served until those who are unaffected are as outraged as those who are.
