Solidarity with Atlanta Forest Defenders: What is Cop City?

Charges of domestic terrorism for sitting in trees, a pacifist being murdered and then accused of firing first, and at the heart of the conflict, a $90 million dollar military-style police training facility called cop city.

In this episode we are going to explore what is going on in Atlanta, and why it affects people everywhere.
