Will Renee Good's death be a turning point?

Renee Good, a 37-year-old Minnesotan mother, is just one of several victims of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) violence in recent months. But her death marks a turning point in the discourse around state violence.

How will her name and story be used by politicians and protestors? And how does her story line up with other moments of government violence throughout American history?

Brittany is joined by Abené Clayton , the lead reporter for the Guns and Lies in America series at The Guardian. Brittany and Abené unpack the importance of this moment, how Good's death compares to other deaths at the hands of the federal government, and how the narrative around her death is already messier than it should be.
