patreon only: The Intercept's criminal justice journalist Alice Speri https://www.patreon.com/posts/27145199 Kraig Lewis was living in Connecticut about to get his MBA when police showed up, took him away and indicted him and 119 other young black and latino men from the Bronx neighborhood he grew up in during what was hailed as the biggest gang raid in New York history. The problem was that most of the people arrested weren't even charged with being gang members. Alex VItale is a professor of sociology at Brooklyn College and the author of "The End of Policing." They're both part of a network of researchers and advocates working to end large gang conspiracy cases. And I spoke with them about the Bronx 120 and why policing doesn't work and won't be saved by body cams or more training.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Marcie Smith, and adjunct lecturer in economics at Jon Jay (CUNY) questions the sanctification of Gene Sharp, who has been called the "Machiavelli of nonviolence," and portrayed as apolitical. Smith talks to me about her recent piece, published on NonSite called "Change Agent: Gene Sharp's Noeliberal Nonviolence", which looks at Sharp's noeliberal ideology and his role as a defense state intellectual and Cold War champion. This I play the audio of a book talk I attended by Max Blumenthal about his latest book The Management of Savagery How America's National Security State Fueled the Rise of Al Qaeda, ISIS, and Donald Trump.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
