Hello and welcome to hysteria. I'm Erin Ryan. This week, Alyssa Master Monaco, Rie-Chaney,

Julius Arse and Shaniqua McClendon ask the following questions.

How can we advocate for policing reform in a way that actually helps?

What's the difference between being a real activist and just playing one on Instagram?

And why are K-pop fans, the new anti-racist heroes we never knew we needed?

All this and more right now.

Before we get to the show, a little bit of housekeeping.

If you're able to donate, here's how to support people in groups protesting police violence

and working to combat racism and injustice.

You can go to crooked.com slash bail funds

to support community bail funds around the the country or you can go to crooked

dot com slash change funds to support 11 groups fighting racism and police

brutality. The change funds one is really cool You can choose how to spread your donation out among the 11 groups or you can just have it spread out evenly among the 11 groups.

I donated to Change Funds yesterday and bail funds is also another great way to get involved.

We are going to take a quick break, but when we come back, a really special edition of the show,

I'm excited for you to hear it. Guys I'm really really excited about the show that we have put together today.

It's been a big awful week, and I don't think anybody is having a good time and in order to kind of break it down

rather than doing the show the way we normally do we've just got a bigger group than we

normally have and we're going to have one big conversation about what's going on.

Specifically I want to talk about the way that we are processing what's going on,

the way we're sharing information, the way mainstream media outlets are giving us

information who we're listening to who's getting talked over what's helpful
