The Progressive Prosecutor, part 5 (rebroadcast) / Bay Poets: Dr. Adrienne Danyelle Oliver

Today we're sharing a series that won the award for best ongoing coverage in radio and audio in 2021 from the Northern California chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists. It's called The Progressive Prosecutor and it's about San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin's first year in office. It was described by the judges as an invaluable resource as voters try to understand the upcoming recall. In this episode, we hear about the first time Boudin charged several police officers with homicide and how their union fired back and learn how one family impacted by police violence continues to wait for another chance at justice. Then, we hear a reading from Oakland poet Dr. Adrienne Danyelle Oliver.
