On this week’s Truth to Power, we gather folks around the microphones for a community conversation in honor of the 10th anniversary of the publication of Michelle Alexander’s seminal book, “The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness.” Forward Radio programmers, Hart Hagan (The Climate Report / Let’s Talk), and Justin Mog (Sustainability Now!) discuss the need to weed out structural racism by the root, as Michelle Alexander so brilliantly exposes.
