You've Been Served

In this special episode the gang welcomes back Jhakur (@tonieark on Instagram), and they talk about protests, riots, and more. Ty starts the discussion wout talking about John Boyega's tweet (0:08). The group moves on to talk about their reactions to the George Floyd video (1:51). Quickly, they move on to discuss the protests and rioting and the impact it has on local communities (specifically black and/or underprivileged communities) (3:16). Then, for those of you waiting on Chris' entrance, he comes in to add his opinion (9:53). Ty pivots to discuss to what extent we should blame the police force for these killings; is it all their fault? Or just a few bad actors? (20:19) Robert and Chris bring up the negative impact the violence, looting, and rioting has on the movement overall and how it can discourage people who might normally agree with the movement (27:31). They discuss what the movement would have to do wrong in order to lose their support (35:01). Finally, Chris suggests if the movement is to continue it needs a path forward and the gang discusses where they want to see changes in both society at large and smaller police issues (43:07).
