Uncuffed: Where Were You in '92?

Description

This week marks 33 years since four police officers were acquitted in the brutal beating of Rodney King in Los Angeles. That verdict exploded into days of rioting and unrest across the city. It also ignited a national conversation about police brutality, as well as race and inequality in the criminal justice system.


This week we're featuring an episode from Uncuffed, a podcast made by incarcerated people in California prisons in collaboration with KALW. We hear from Uncuffed’s host Greg Eskridge and others who’ve been incarcerated about how the riots had a lasting impact on their lives. 


Greg Eskridge's story mentions abuse and violence, so please take care when listening.
