We Need to Talk About Brandon
Who is Brandon? Plus, three men are found guilty of murdering a black jogger in the US.
Emily, Jon and Anthony discuss who Brandon is and why Americans are chanting his name.
Also, three white men have been found guilty of murdering a black jogger, Ahmaud Arbery, in Georgia. We hear testimony from the trial and reaction from his family.
And after another high-profile trial, politicians have been offering internships to Kyle Rittenhouse - the young man acquitted of murdering two white men during a protest in 2020. For some, he’s become an icon for the right to armed self-defence.
