Summary

Joyce Vance hosts #SistersInLaw to reflect on the murder of Charlie Kirk, the escalation of political violence, and the legal issues involved– from free speech to gun control.  The #Sisters also look at the role of the FBI in investigations like this, and call for unity and to bridge the divides driving us apart from our fellow Americans.  Then, they call out the SCOTUS ruling in favor of racial profiling and look at the implications for all of us, no matter what our language, jobs, or ethnicities.  From there, they explore the recent orders and decisions coming out of the SCOTUS on a number of other critical cases.
