48. We Love Abolition

If you wanna be startin' something, you've got to be ABOLISHING something. This week we're decompressing from the verdict in the murder of George Floyd and the continued murder of Black people by the state, and we break down why we need to defund and abolish the police, reminding ourselves that things actually do change from time to time, and bring out the big questions: Is there power in mobilization? Are we embarrassed, disgusted, or something else? And at the end of the day, does this have anything to do with anything???
