The Ferguson sledgehammer: Breaking systems and building new ones out of the Uprising
Aug 22, 2024•44 min•Season 10Ep. 4
Episode description
Ferguson exposed systems that disenfranchise Black St. Louisans and fail their basic mandates to provide safety, health and community to the people who depend on them. Inspired by the Uprising and driven by experience and anger, many people found their voices and created their own new systems designed to help their community thrive. In this episode, we explore the creation of Love Bank Park, the closing of the Medium Security Institution known as the Workhouse, and the restorative justice movement.
