Summary

On today’s Sup podcast, Amanda and Kailtin are back to talk about two deeply upsetting incidents of racial tension in America. First, they discuss Amy Cooper, the NYC woman who called the police on a bird watching black man knowing it could cost him his life. Is the “Karen” who asks to speak to the manager the same Karen who incites violence against black people? Then, they discuss the murder of George Floyd at police hands on the very same day, and the disparate police responses to white people protesting social distancing and black people protesting state-sanctioned murder.
