Summary

Last week, we talked about the Grove City College attacks against Jemar. We discussed how harmful and hypocritical they are and what really happened when Jemar was there. But we’re discussing Grove City because it is about much more than Grove City. This controversy is simply a microcosm of a much larger problem. Jemar and Tyler are back to talk about how uncomfortably familiar this controversy is and why it affects those of us who frequently speak about race and justice.
