In this week’s segment we discuss New York state proposals to change rules on discovery, the sharing of evidence between defense attorneys and prosecutors. A public defender explains why so-called reforms proposed by the legislature would diminish legal and human rights. We also hear from a climate activist on how the idea of abundance promulgated in a new book is actually the face of neo-liberalism and climate degradation. But first we will discuss the South American nation Ecuador, its recent disputed election, U.S. interference, and the living conditions in Afro-Ecuadorian communities.
