APRIL 27 EVENING
Black lawmakers are pushing to investigate the disproportionately high number of missing Black, indigenous, and other women and girls of color. Legislation pending in Albany, state bill S426AA, would create a task force charged with addressing the “lack of care and concern” for BIPOC girls, and also develop policies for keeping them out of harm’s way. WNYC’S Race and Justice Unit reporter Arya Sundarum joins us to discuss the issue further.
