Episode notes
Kirk in life was an extremist who believed all kinds of things about women, people of colour and religion. His killing at the hands of Tyler Robinson has unleashed a divide between those who believe it is disrespectful to speak ill of the dead, and those who believe accountability goes beyond the grave. This episode looks at both those sides.
