THIS EPISODE: The Breonna Taylor case, comments by Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron, and the findings of the grand jury in this case, are discussed by Sybrina Fulton, mother of Trayvon Martin. AND: Breonna’s Law co-sponsor, and Kentucky’s only black woman state representative, Attica Scott, was arrested at a Breonna Taylor protest following the decision of a grand jury not to indict any of the officers involved in her shooting, related to her death. Scott joins Tiffany Cross with her account of her arrest. PLUS: Judge Amy Coney Barrett’s record is called hypocritical by Catholic legal expert Elie Mystal. Mystal tells Tiffany Cross, ‘[I]t is not Catholic, it is not devout, to turn away thy neighbor who is in need of assistance.’ ALSO: Voter registration and participation are championed by Olympic and WNBA star Lisa Leslie, who is promoting voting to young people through the Hoopers Vote initiative. Leslie joins Tiffany Cross to discuss the efforts of many celebrity athletes to encourage American voters to exercise this right. All this and much more in this Saturday edition of AM JOY on MSNBC.
