We find ourselves in the Eye of the Hurricane. The mass anti-racist protests in the US and in countries around the world, following the death of George Floyd have been largely directed at policing, as a root cause of systemic racism, but will defunding the police, or making them more accountable really produce the outcome we are looking for? …. or do we need to look deeper?
My guest for this episode of for What it’s Worth is Ken Klonsky, author, educator and Director of Innocence International, an organization founded by the late Rubin “Hurricane” Carter. Innocence International is dedicated to overturning wrongful conviction, brought about by false confessions orchestrated by law enforcement and supported by representatives of the criminal justice system…join us, Eye of the Hurricane…. For What it’s Worth.
