Law & Order: Part 2 (ep 261)

This episode, the second in our summer series, part two of our look at law and order—emphasis on the latter. Because even though we'll begin this episode with discussions about the courts and prisons (building on last episode's walk-through of policing), there's a much bigger picture at play here: the enforcement and reinforcement of a social order, an order that works hand in glove with the needs of settler colonialism.
