    How the jury in the Ahmaud Arbery case ended up nearly all white — and why it matters.
    NPR (Moderate Left) • Factual Grade 80% • 4 min read

    The Arbery case became a focal point in the national conversation around race last year after video emerged showing the three white defendants — Gregory McMichael; his son, Travis McMichael; and their neighbor William Bryan — chasing Arbery, a Black man, as he jogged down a residential street before one of them shoots him with a shotgun.
    ...
    The Sixth Amendment guarantees citizens the right to an impartial jury, but there's no requirement that the jury be as racially diverse as the area where the trial is taking place. In Glynn County, where Arbery was killed and the trial is happening, 27% of the population is Black. Only one juror is Black, while the other 11 are white.
    ...
    The defense attorneys argued that they struck some potential Black jurors not because of their race but rather because they were biased against the defendants and had made up their minds about the case.

Should the US have signed the pledge to phase out coal power?

427 votes, 51 comments

Context: Over 40 countries, not including the U.S., pledge to end use of coal power at climate summit.

HIGHLIGHTED COMMENTS

Yes - Fossil fuels account for a significant proportion of the greenhouse gases causing climate change. Energy production is a necessity, and whatever we can do to minimize its impact on the environment is a move in the right direction. I understand that there are a lot of jobs tied up in the mining and supply of coal, but the writing is on the wall that this method of energy production is unsustainable.


No - Eventually yes, but until supply can be brought up to speed with cleaner sources of energy, the answer is no. There is alread...



Unsure - Like all regulations, one must be careful. Through regulation we should phase out certain emissions, not the pres...
