Unrest, Death Row, and Euphoria
This week, hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum give a brief update on the Trump circus and his recent interview with Time Magazine. Then onto news you won’t see on cable: what if hundreds of people–mostly Black men–were being slowly and painfully killed, and the government was in on it? An update on state-sanctioned lethal injections. And guess who’s hiring? Police forces across the country, which have seen an increase in their ranks for the first time since 2020. We’ve seen those police hard at work on college campuses, where they’ve been breaking up encampments as they arrest hundreds of students protesting the war in Gaza. The hosts unpack what we’re seeing unfold at schools across the country. In Georgia, the battleground state is grappling with a new voter suppression law that could disenfranchise thousands and have dire consequences for the Biden administration. Then, in Politics Are Everywhere, Tiffany delivers her signature sports expertise. There are big changes coming to how we watch NBA games; Tiffany has the details. And of course, we’ll hear from you, our #NLPFan listeners. We are 186 days away from the election. Welcome home y’all! —--------- We want to hear from you!
