This week…

SPD wants the Justice Department to stop monitoring its every move, Seattle’s birding organization is dropping a name with racist ties, and the oldest southern resident orca in captivity may have a pathway home.

Author Jodi-Ann Burey and KUOW’s Bill Radke are here to help us break down the week.
