America on Fire: Ep 6: The Poisonous Tree: What Grows from Injustice Will Burn

Episode 6 examines Elizabeth Hinton’s “The Poisonous Tree,” showing how poverty, segregation, underfunding, and aggressive policing poisoned communities and produced youth rebellion as a predictable response.

Using historical examples and biblical reflections, the episode argues that the state chose suppression over structural reform, and calls for uprooting oppressive systems, uplifting youth voices, and seeking true justice rather than surface fixes.
