This year has been one for the record books. A global pandemic and an epidemic of unwarranted mass killings of Black and Brown people by law enforcement.  These two major “health crises” also exist on the heels of an upcoming election, with major stakes in the criminal justice system, gig worker economy, housing and more. 
 
Considering the complexity of this year and our election system. HKR’s host, Davey D speaks with a panel of political experts about the specific propositions on the ballot this year. The panel include Eric Arnold, Tonya Love, Chaney Turner and Tim Redmond. 
Eric K. Arnold spent 20 years as a music jour­nal­ist and doc­u­men­tar­i­an before expand­ing his reper­toire to include com­mu­ni­ty-based reportage on top­i­cal issues, from ener­gy to envi­ron­ment to police account­abil­i­ty.
