Why do we need to preface the podcast with a homily about George Floyd? Yes it’s sad but you then link to police and prison abolition sites. Actually I am a prison abolitionist myself but you make massive assumptions that your audience wants to swallow a bunch of cultural Marxism when really they are interested in anthropology.
Plus your sound is off - consult a radio professional.
Has a unilateral political agenda.
If the USA is so racist, why are so many trying to live here?
“Shine the light” on the other side. Expose their corruption. The reality is the other side riddles the criticism with lead.
