Ep. 40 - Are The Police Hunting Down Black Men?

Apologies for the late upload. On today's episode I delve into the belief held by many African-Americans that police are "hunting" black people. Superstar athlete Lebron James recently alluded to this last week in the wake of the Jacob Blake shooting. Thanks to an article written by Heather Mac Donald, all the evidence I needed to debunk this myth was already neatly gathered for me. Enjoy the podcast? Take 30 seconds to rate and review the show.
