Law & Disorder with Cat Brooks

Law & Disorder is where abolition meets the airwaves.

Hosted by organizer, artist, and activist Cat Brooks, the show uplifts movement voices and frontline struggles—from police violence and housing injustice to incarceration, immigration, and community safety.

Every episode dives into systems of harm and the people working to dismantle and rebuild them. With sharp interviews and real-time analysis, Law & Disorder tells the truth loud and live—no permission needed.

“The experts are in the people.” —Cat Brooks

This isn’t punditry. It’s power-building, on air.

Law & Disorder with Cat Brooks airs on KPFK 90.7 FM and streaming at kpfk.org/player.
