[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the problem with the podcast is that they want to identify how the system(s) failed Relisha, but they also think that it's wrong for social services to intervene too much in families or split them up. So they can't really articulate what the "system" should have done differently, since the only thing that would really have protected Relisha was to have way more extensive intervention in the family and/or take Shamika's kids away to protect them. So it all feels disingenuous.[/quote] This podcast had the potential to be a really good investigative piece but ultimately fell real flat. She danced around the issue of ever placing the responsibility on the mother. Instead, the podcast or place responsibility on everybody else.[/quote] +1 by the time I was pissed. Not at “the system” or “racism” but the mother and this reporter. What a cowardly piece of “journalism.”[/quote]
