Our featured idealist is Pussy Riot, the Russian music/performance group that

is a big thorn in Vladimir Putin’s side. The Big Interview has me speaking to Bethany O’Neil and

Cresston Gackle, attorneys who wrote about how MN’s system of selecting juries, which often

fails to reflect the diversity of the community, perpetuates bias against criminal defendants of
