Overcoming Hate

When it comes to prosecuting hate crimes, Colorado didn’t have a great track record until they amended Colorado’s bias-motivated crimes statute. In this bonus episode of Systemic, we look at how Melissa Hall, a Black parent who was racially abused while volunteering on school premises, tested this new amendment in court. Host and producer: Jo Erickson Producers: Rebekah Romberg, Kibwe Cooper, Emily Williams Theme music by Daniel Mescher. (Additional music via Universal Production Music.) Art: Maria Juliana Pinzón
