We discuss the flaws in the legal system & how inherent biases adversely impact the African-American community. We examine overcharging defendants, excessive bail, plea bargaining, the myth of innocent until proven guilty & how they all drive mass incarceration. Plus defunding the police and the danger of how conspiracy charges can be used to ensnare our youth.
