27: Lift-Gate

Bloomberg as the OG of Institutional Racism

The hosts argue that Michael Bloomberg represents "institutional racism" due to his ties to Wall Street and his defense of redlining and stop-and-frisk. They posit that redlining keeps minorities in specific zones while stop-and-frisk provides the militarized policing of those same zones, creating a converged system of control.
