Why do people protest and riot? Aren't riots detrimental to the cause of protestors? 

On this episode we try to understand why people protest and the progress that has been made from the recent protests for George Floyd. 

The take away from this  episode comes from a speech by Fredrick Douglas in 1857: "Power gives nothing without a demand. It never has, and it never will." We must continue to make demand of our governments and those in authority over us.
