Description

In this week’s State of Criminal Justice, we’ll cover the ridiculous theater of the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, skyrocketing overdose deaths, and the crimes of federal prison workers. And in our New Ground series, we’ll talk about the release of juvenile-lifer Henry Montgomery.

PushBlack exists because we saw we had to take matters into our own hands, especially when it comes to protecting our communities. As a nonprofit, we rely on small donations from subscribers like you. You make PushBlack happen with your contributions. Most people do 5 or 10 bucks a month, but everything makes a difference. Thanks for supporting the work.
