Dr. Terrance Dean and "The Other Side" podcast host, Scot Kirk, talk to Kyle Strickland, senior legal analyst at Ohio State's Kirwan Institute for the Study of Race & Ethnicity about his Dispatch op-ed column on confronting systems of power. 

Strickland says we're living in an accountability moment. With the racial justice protests in 2020 and the focus on systemic racism in the aftermath, there has been a push for unity without addressing what accountability means.

Strickland also believes we must speak truth to power and not allow disinformation to thrive in this society: we can't think one or two reforms are going to get us where we need to be as a nation.
