    37. I Mean...Philosophically What Is A Crime Anymore

    Ready for A Night In? Join Tabby and Kate as they continue their conversation on alternative forms of protest. This show ultimately focuses on two subjects: 1. How you can spend your money as a form of protest 2. The moral implications of prison labor.  00:00 Companies posture, but what do they really stand for?  06:35 Aurora James and the 15% pledge  11:15 Prison Labor. There is a lot to unload here.  12:50 Amendment 13: Slavery is abolished save for a critical caveat. Slavery is legal as punishment for a crime.  14:00 In 1880 blacks were 13 percent of the U.S. population and 29 percent of the total prison population. In 1923, blacks were 10 percent of the U.S. population and 32 percent of the jail population, and in 1970 blacks were 11 percent of the population and 41 percent of the jail inmates 15:40 Justice System Improvement Act 23:29 Felony Theft Thresholds  27:25 Elon Musk F***s Us Up with Some Truth  29:14 Prison Gerrymandering is incredibly unethical   32:20 How do you even define what crime is when what is considered a crime today could be considered legal next year?  Additional Reading:  Chrome Extensions https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/donegood-ethical-affordab/bhniioifamlbhnepehjpcpfcopknilfc?hl=en-US https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ethical-shopper/abghnoboebhghdhjhmfmdglnoankijph?hl=en Links for webpages https://www.bjs.gov/content/pub/pdf/hcsus5084.pdf https://www.prisonpolicy.org/blog/2020/06/10/felony-thresholds/ https://www.15percentpledge.org/ https://www.urban.org/sites/default/files/publication/59411/410854-Can-Inmates-Become-an-Integral-Part-of-the-U-S-Workforce-.PDF https://www.latimes.com/opinion/op-ed/la-oe-bozelko-prison-labor-20171020-story.html https://www.law.com/dailybusinessreview/2020/06/11/state-lawyers-seek-to-fast-track-felons-voting-rights-appeal/ Intro song by: Joakim Karud youtube.com/joakimkarud

    36. You Haven't Said Anything, Where Do You Stand

    Ready for A Night In? Join Tabby and Kate as they take a break from discussing history and instead engage in a discourse about the difficulties of participating in local politics. A key focus of the episode is the importance of voting at the community level while acknowledging some of the barriers voters face while trying to navigate local politics.  Episode Guide: 00:00-04:59 Commentary on what is happening.  05:00 We get to the point of the show. Voting gives you the ability to enact change, but turnout for local elections is small. Why is this? What can we do to change this issue?  08:00 Omari Hardy stands up for the people of Lake Worth  10:00 Killer Mike says vote out politicians you don't like, but this can be very difficult. Many local politicians run unopposed. This is why it is important to always pay attention and when your window of opportunity arises, take it!  13:00 How do you know if judges are working in the interest of the community? In PBC the bar association holds a judicial review that evaluates the performance of judges.  17:00 Local Newspapers do a lot of heavy lifting for you when you are trying to navigate your local politics.  20:00 Don't forget: Mayors and County Execs work a lot with local police (appoint police chiefs; negotiate police unions; enact police review boards)  22:00 State Attorney are elected into office. Are they holding police and city officials to account?  Thanks again for listening.
