Come Out of the Shadows

DeRay, Brittany, Clint and Sam discuss D.C. statehood, Baltimore's refusal to internally review their police department, a recently unearthed secret plan to circumvent Brown vs. Board of Education in Texas, and why South Dakota (of all places) leads the nation in jail admissions. Stephanie Wittels Wachs, host of the new podcast, "Last Day," and co-founder of Lemonada Media, and Ithaca's Mayor Svante Myrick, join DeRay to talk about America's opioid crisis.<a href="https://www.baltimoresun.com/politics/bs-md-pol-harrison-gttf-20190917-gh2um4wjcnfvfippwyh3prti6u-story.html">https://www.baltimoresun.com/politics/bs-md-pol-harrison-gttf-20190917-gh2um4wjcnfvfippwyh3prti6u-story.html</a><a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2019/09/how-ut-used-standardized-testing-to-slow-integration/597814/">https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2019/09/how-ut-used-standardized-testing-to-slow-integration/597814/</a><a href="https://theappeal.org/south-dakota-leads-nation-on-jail-admissions-new-report-finds/">https://theappeal.org/south-dakota-leads-nation-on-jail-admissions-new-report-finds/</a><a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/">https://www.washingtonpost.com/</a><a href="https://simplisafe.com/people">https://simplisafe.com/people</a>DailyHarvest.com, promo code PEOPLEThe 57 Bus, Wherever books are sold
