Episode 77: The Long Journey Back from Online Radicalization (featuring Jordan Williams-Crenshaw)
Available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, and iHeartRadio.
In this episode, special guest (and Spencer’s little cousin) Jordan Williams-Crenshaw shares his story about how he was radicalized by the far right as a teen by way of the internet. We also give updates on President Biden’s American Jobs Plan and we discuss the Derek Chauvin trial, the death of Daunte Wright in suburban Minneapolis at the hands of a 26-year police department veteran who claims she got a taser confused with a gun, and the video of Army Lt. Caron Nazario’s problematic encounter with the Windsor Police Department.
