On this episode, I talk with author and educator, Dr. Elizabeth Hinton, about her new book America on Fire: The Untold History of Police Violence and Black Rebellion Since the 1960s. In our conversation, we discuss her new book, the historical significance of the period from the 1960s through early 1970s on current movements to address police violence, the impact of police violence on Black youth, history of  Black youth leading movements for social justice, our reflections as moms and so much more.
