Fighting the Torture Machine: On the Past and Present of Chicago Police Violence

'Attorney Flint Taylor reviews a half-century career fighting police violence in Chicago - from his work pursuing justice for assassinated Black Panthers Fred Hampton and Mark Clark, and his role uncovering the crimes of torture ring-leader Jon Burge, to winning financial and institutional reparations for the victims (and victimized communities) under the CPD's forceful regime. Taylor is the author of The Torture Machine: Racism and Police Violence in Chicago from Haymarket Books.' -- This is Hell!
