À propos de ce contenu audio

Cari kicks off the 'Naked Sports' podcast by taking listeners back to 1977, when New York was a mix of World Series excitement and urban crises. The spotlight shines on Elliot Williams, a former federal prosecutor, as he discusses his book 'Five Bullets,' which tells the story of Bernard Goetz, the so-called subway vigilante. Williams recounts Goetz's controversial 1984 shooting of four black teenagers, an event that highlighted racial tensions and crime fears in a gritty New York City. He touches on the public's reaction, media bias, and how the subjects of safety and vigilantism remain relevant today. The discussion also includes the impact of the crack epidemic on New York's housing projects and the ongoing celebration of vigilantes in American culture. It’s a rich exploration of how past events continue to shape contemporary issues.
