Token Majority™
Your Rights, Your Legal Resource. The law is complicated and messy—often unnecessarily so. And yet, laws impact our everyday lives in profound ways. The word “person” in our Constitution does not and historically has not included every human being in our country and, yet, it is a central underpinning of our society. Similarly, a variety of other laws affecting our rights have not been designed to protect everyone equally. In fact, our systems—shaped by white supremacy, patriarchy, and other structural forms of oppression—have often worked against the welfare and safety of the people in our communities. As a diverse group of attorneys practicing personal injury and civil rights law, we created this podcast as a resource to help us all better understand the law and how to use it to protect our rights. We hope to share our insights from a place of compassion, understanding, and a little humor.
