Another Take: Voices from the George Floyd protests

Protesters across the United States defy curfews and risk arrest to protest against police brutality. The US has seen demonstrations like this before, but this feels different. To understand why, we speak with Hanif Abdurraqib, a cultural critic and editor at GEN magazine. We also speak with Madiha Nawaz, a graduate student and Washington, DC resident who unexpectedly faced the police at her doorstep this week.

In this episode:

• Hanif Abdurraqib (@NifMuhammad), cultural critic
• Madiha Nawaz, (@madihasays), graduate student
