Uncovering the MOVE Bombing Legacy

Van Lathan and Rachel Lindsay start the episode with some updates from the Olympics, including the disappointment of Sha’Carri Richardson’s silver placement in the 100-meter race (06:02), the pole vaulter whose legs and manhood knocked him out of the competition (21:52), and a special proposal for a Chinese gold winner (27:50). Then, they talk about the tragedy coming from the U.K. (33:05) and touch a bit on the bizarre RFK Jr. bear story (41:25 ). Later, Mike Africa Jr. joins us to talk about his new book, ‘On a Move: Philadelphia's Notorious Bombing and a Native Son's Lifelong Battle for Justice’ and the importance of MOVE’s legacy (1:05:45).
