Description

This episode examines how the justice system in America sustains and deepens social inequity and how the law can instead uphold all our rights if we introduce legal care for all, abolish cash bail, ban plea bargaining, end the proliferation of justice system fees and fines, and prohibit for profit prisons and for profit probation services.
