In the days following the fatal police shooting of Corey Ruiz, the city mobilized in protest in various ways. From shutting down events like Concerts on the Square to blocking traffic on Willy Street and East Washington Avenue, the message has been loud and clear: people are angry and want change. But how do these rallying cries turn into real action? Today, host Bianca Martin talks about the latest developments in the story with executive producer Hayley Sperling. And later, the two are joined by local artist and political strategist Matthew Braunginn, who helped organize protests in 2015 following the death of Tony Robinson, to talk about the human toll of protesting and what has — and hasn’t — changed in the past 10 years.
