This week on CounterSpin: From community rallies around the country to the presidential election, the Black Lives Matter movement has changed the conversation. Keeping a spotlight on state-sanctioned violence against black people, activists have opened up a debate, including in corporate media, that addresses racism and white supremacy in ways more searching and less euphemistic than we’re used to. At least, fewer pundits tell us we’re living in a “post-racial” society—that’s a start.

CounterSpin frequently engages corporate media’s role in issues of racial justice. We’re going to revisit a few of those conversations on this week’s show.

We’ll hear from UCLA professor and author Robin Kelley, from media activist Malkia Cyril of the Center for Media Justice, and from researcher and author Richard Rothstein of the Economic Policy Institute.
