Ep 293 | Why Police Shootings Need Context
Summary
Rioters are burning down Kenosha, Wisconsin, where a police shooting occurred this past Sunday. Jacob Blake was shot in the back seven times while reaching into his car, and the video of it has sparked more outrage. Allie Beth Stuckey explains why context is important in any police shooting and whether or not statistics in our country prove that our police forces are systemically racist.
