This week in the second episode of our Black Lives Matter series we're focusing on the series of failures and biased assumptions that lead the death of Breonna Taylor, a Medical Technician in Louisville, Kentucky. Breonna was unarmed and spending an evening with her long-term partner Kenneth, when she was shot and killed by Louisville Police in her own home.
