Future Left Podcast Ep. 46: White Men Are Legally Worth More Than Other People (Seriously)
When two children die wrongfully in the same circumstances and the party responsible for their deaths is commanded by a court to pay some remuneration to their families, we can learn very quickly that a male is more valuable than a female, that a white person is more valuable than a person of color. Lawyers project what the worth of a white male and a black female is over the course of their lives, and in so doing recreate systemic violence and oppression.
