4: “Abolish the Police.”

The crew has a discussion about how coronavirus changed the idea of touch and how organizations should be educating and updating their systems.

WORTH MENTIONING:

-This was originally recorded on July 18, 2020. Give us grace if we speak to a moment that makes no sense because time is weird now.

-Here's more context on where the protests in Chicago went after Julia and Ari were there.

-Here’s more context on the PC(USA) General Assembly Addie talks about.

-Did you post a black square on your IG a few weeks ago? Here's some thoughts on why that wasn't an awesome idea.

-Addie has been running a monthly book club for about two years that centers folks who are not straight cis white American men. She mentions it when talking about Ta-Nehisi Coates' The Water Dancer's character Corrine Quinn. You should read that book!

-We talk a lot about white people showing up for racial justice in this episode. It's complex and often contradictory. Look at the graphic in this post, it's super helpful!
