Power to the Podcast
Podcast af ACLU of Minnesota
County Attorneys (also known as District Attorneys) are some of the most powerful people in our criminal justice system. They decide who gets criminal charges filed against them, the severity of those charges, or if charges get filed at all. In this series, we dive into the roles County Attorneys play in mass incarceration, bail practices, and policing.
Power to the Podcast, brought to you by the ACLU of Minnesota, takes a deeper look into this and other civil liberties you care about and empowers you to take action. Learn more at www.aclu-mn.org.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.
Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
