Are we similar to the people we spend most of our time with and can we trust people who have wronged us in the past?
The ladies discuss whether it is wrong to judge people by the company they keep and if people’s past actions can accurately predict their future behaviour, after 1,000 young Black men are removed from The Metropolitan Police’s gang violence matrix – a database containing the names of those allegedly at risk of committing gang violence in the UK, with many people only listed because of someone they know despite never committing or being convicted of a crime themselves. Guest starring Lauren Fernandes, Assistant Producer of Ethnically Speaking.
