As Minnesota’s Attorney General, Keith Ellison prosecuted the police officers in the murder trial of George Floyd and grappled with how to deliver justice to the Floyd family while ending police brutality once and for all. Now, in the face of new stories of police abuse filling the news once again, hosts of the podcast Some of My Best Friends are…, Khalil Gibran Muhammad and Ben Austen, lead a conversation with Ellison on how we break the wheel of police violence and finally make it stop turning.

This program is presented in partnership with the American Constitution Society.
