About this listen

Adam Massiah (@ar.maxxiah) is back for another episode because he is simply too awesome to only interview once.  Join Pola (@russiancoffee) and Carole (@ofmillenial) as they discuss with Adam what working with the Calgary Police Services racial committee is like, what defunding the police really means, a glimpse into the systemic protection given to the CPS in the form of their legislation, their union, and their essential power structure.  Adam also spills the tea on the CPS' response to their officers' conduct in the cases of Dalia Kafi and Kobe Amadi.

Also, a brief lesson on legislative change and how our Charter of Rights and Freedoms works in Canada, as a bonus!
