Episode notes

The Supreme Court has made it very difficult in the name of states, rights and local governments rights to bring claims directly against the city. And I can go back to the reconstruction years and say, well, I know why they did it because they were racist and they were trying to uphold white supremacy. That hasn't yet happened. The Roberts Court will go down as a very pro corporation, pro government court that whether the point is that they actually want to put black Americans and poor Americans under their thumb.

Is there such a thing as "too much justice"? This week, Adam explores the pressing issue of police violence and accountability with Professor of Law at UCLA School of Law Joanna Schwartz. Together they discuss the challenges faced in holding law enforcement accountable, potential reforms, and explore the role of litigation in seeking justice and fostering meaningful change.
