A new SCOTUS case, body camera controversy, microchip layoffs, Colorado music
Description
Colorado prohibits conversion therapy, which treats being gay or trangender as a mental illness. Now the U.S. Supreme Court will take up a challenge to the law. Then, body cameras are supposed to make police accountable and reduce shootings. But the effectiveness depends in part on what footage they release. Plus, layoffs in Colorado Springs tell a bigger national security story. And you’ll hear the story behind a new Colorado song to make your day brighter.
This episode of Colorado Today is hosted by Arlo Pérez Esquivel. It’s edited and produced by Jo Erickson, Mateo Schimpf, and Stephanie Wolf. The executive producer is Rachel Estabrook. Theme music by Pedro Lumbraño.
