## Resource

This Monday marked six years since the murder of George Floyd by ex-cop Derek Chauvin. At that time, Minneapolis became the epicenter of a global racial reckoning. Sean and contributor Winter Keefer talk about what’s changed since the summer of 2020. Plus, lawmakers have banned prediction markets like Kalshi. But we predict (get it?) that the law has an uphill battle in the courts. We also open up an overflowing mailbag.
