Description

Maria and Julio are joined by two In The Thick All Star guests, Wajahat Ali, TV host and contributor to The New York Times, and Christina Greer, professor at Fordham University and fellow at NYU's McSilver Institute for Poverty Policy and Research. They catch up on the weekend's news: the power of youth at the March For Our Lives demonstrations and the Stormy Daniels 60 Minutes interview. The convo also digs into the recent package bombings in Austin and how race is framed in the national conversation about ideological violence. How do the media and authorities approach an act of violence when a suspect or victim is white, as opposed to when the suspect or victim is a person of color and/or Muslim?
