A session by Naomi Murakawa, a recording from the Socialism 2022 Conference. The US is witnessing a renewed anti-crime campaign, with Democratic elites at the forefront. This talk will analyze the repressive backlash since the Black Lives Matter uprising in summer 2020—and how liberals have tried to turn BLM into a victims’ rights movement.
