Ep6: #defundthepolice

Dave and Bob come together this week in the Sound Studio to try to understand the #defund police movement. After a little reminiscing about great stickers in their life, they discuss the history of policing, including the failures of reform efforts and visions of abolition of the police and prisons. They dig even deeper to ask what are police actually for in society? Building on this, they discuss what people can do wherever they are to be a part of these efforts.

Thanks to the artists: Drake Stafford, Cullah, and the enigmatic Joe Schine
