Clay is joined by Pulitzer Prize winning columnist and author of “Profit and Punishment” Tony Messenger to look at the ways our criminal justice system has prioritized money, punishment and power over lives during a time when we are finally reevaluating the way our country pursues justice. How does the system impact the poor? Is it something that we should all be concerned about? And what can we do to fight inequity and restore a belief in true fairness and common sense?

Clay is joined by Harvard philosopher, Professor Michael Sandel, for an in depth discussion about the forces in our country that create its winners and its losers, and how that tyranny of meritocracy divides us.
