Ear Hustle’s eighth season launches on September 8th with a dramatic account of one of the most notorious days in San Quentin’s history: August 21st, 1971. By sundown, three guards and three incarcerated people lay dead. Fifty years later, the events of that day remain intensely contested, and emotions raw. We break down what happened, and why it still matters today.
As always, big thanks to Lt. Sam Robinson and Acting Warden Ron Broomfield for their support of the show.
Ear Hustle is a proud member of Radiotopia, from PRX.
