Absolutely excellent reporting! It's a real shame I'd never heard about this before! I noticed some episodes are missing from this feed. You can find it all on "Uncover" season 20 by CBC podcasts.

Description

In 1985, police dropped a bomb in a Philadelphia neighborhood. Their target? A family of Black radicals known as ‘MOVE,’ who found themselves ensnared in a city — and nation’s — domestic war on Black Liberation. Over seven episodes, host Matthew Amha investigates the events that culminated in the MOVE bombing, and the long afterlife of a forgotten American tragedy.


All episodes are available ad-free on the CBC True Crime Premium channel.
