How far will you go to save your business? We examine the strange TAIL of a cat cafe in Austin, Texas, that finds itself a magnet of protest and violence on a national scale. It’s a story about gentrification, and how growing cities push minority-owned businesses out. Along the way, there are lots of cats, a little Alex Jones rage, and veiled death threats.
