In this episode, all of the gurls are here! Someone catches the Omicron variant so the gurls discuss their testing strategies. They also discuss the FGA-approved injectable HIV prevention drug, the case of Akai Gurley, Christmas lights, and their top songs of 2021.

In this segment of By Any Means Necessary, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Kerbie Joseph, longtime police brutality, mass incarceration and community organizer in Brooklyn, New York with the ANSWER Coalition and SOS coordinator with the Audre Lorde Project to discuss the struggle for justice for Akai Gurley, the policing of public housing by the NYPD that led to Akai's death, and how the struggle for justice has shaped the community.

In this episode of By Any Means Necessary, hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by Simon Tesfamariam, executive director of the New Africa Institute to discuss massive protests denouncing the actions of the US in the conflict in Ethiopia, why the US is interested in the horn of Africa, and the missing nuance and context in discussions of Ethiopia.In the second segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Kerbie Joseph, longtime police brutality, mass incarceration and community organizer in Brooklyn, New York with the ANSWER Coalition and SOS coordinator with the Audre Lorde Project to discuss the struggle for justice for Akai Gurley, the policing of public housing by the NYPD that led to Akai's death, and how the struggle for justice has shaped the community.In the third segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by technologist Chris Garaffa, the editor of TechforthePeople.org to discuss the use of AI technologies for surveillance in prisons and the potential consequences of its use, Google workers fighting back against the company's contracts with the defense industry, and Facebook's refusal to take substantial action against harmful hate speech.Later in the show, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Kamau Franklin, Founder and Board President of Community Movement Builders in Atlanta and Co-host of the Renegade Culture podcast to discuss the racist tropes on display in the trial of the killers of Ahmaud Arbery, the disparity in the treatment of Kyle Ritenhouse and Tamir Rice and how white fears of Black revenge factor into that treatment, the death of Malikah Shabazz, the exoneration of two people convicted of killing Malcom X, and the sanitization and repackaging of Malcolm X's legacy.

Kyle Rittenhouse, a 17 year old vigilante murderer walks free. This verdict has set the precedent for fascist paramilitary groups around the country to be able to kill protesters without any consequences. This is hardly the first time that the police have relied on paramilitary right-wing violence to put down resistance movements. In local news, a street will be named after police brutality victim, Akai Gurley who was shot and killed in the Pink Houses by officer Peter Liang in 2014. After years of struggle, activists have fought to have a street named after Akai to enshrine the struggle for justice for Akai in history, and to make sure that the city never forgets what happened. Akai Gurley's Aunt, Heretencia Peterson joins the show to talk about the bittersweet victory of the street naming.Thanks-taking is coming up and around this year's dinner tables it's important to remember that native struggle is not in the past - but happening right now. In NY state in the hamptons, one of the wealthiest areas in the country, The Shinnnecock nation is being sued by NY state for building billboards to raise money for their tribe. The audacity of the state is on full display, as the state wastes resources to deny the Shinnecock's treaty rights, but did little to nothing to support the tribe during COVID-19. Joining the show is Tela Trogue, attorney and organizer with the Shinnecock Nation.

Hello, A special episode this week with filmmaker Ursula Liang about her new film Down a Dark Stairwell. It’s out now on PBS and we hope everyone who listens to the show watches this nuanced, thoughtful and brave film. I (Jay) first saw Ursula’s work in 9-Man, a film about sports in Chinatown. Since then, I’ve followed her career carefully because what she does — deep community reporting, thoughtful portrayals of the concerns of all types of people, and the care with which she makes her films — exemplifies everything good about journalism and documentary filmmaking. This is a film about many things, but at it’s core, it’s about how two communities deal with a police killing. And through verite footage and intimate interviews, it shows how people both come together and split apart while trying to navigate problems that fall well outside the easy consensus. On the show, we talk a lot about the need to go beyond rigid identity categories and simple, doctrinaire explanations. If you want to watch what that looks like, watch this film. The film is available in both Chinese and English — both versions available to stream here. —As always, thanks for supporting the show.

“Down a Dark Stairwell” examines how Black and Asian activists were galvanized in different ways over the 2014 New York police shooting of Akai Gurley. Filmmaker Ursula Liang covers the complex case from multiple viewpoints.

We promised ourselves we would finish this season by the end of 2020, as it was inspired by the events of 2020. And here we are: episode 10 of our Saturday School semester on Asian American interracial cinema. We started from the 70s/80s and slowly worked our way up to the present. Ursula Liang's documentary "Down a Dark Stairwell" had its premiere in March 2020 at the True/False Film Fest, right before the lockdown, and has been doing the festival circuit all year. It'll be available to watch on PBS in April 2021. It's about an innocent Black man Akai Gurley who was killed by a Chinese American police officer Peter Liang in 2014. Over 100 Black men have been killed by the NYPD in the past 15 years. The only NYPD officer who has ever been convicted is a Chinese American rookie cop that shot into a dark stairwell. As Asian Americans, it was hard for us to watch Chinese/Asian American organizing emerge in full force yet devolve so quickly, chaotically and unnecessarily into warring factions - one deemed racist, the other deemed race traitors or worse. Does the film leave us with any hope that Asian Americans can fight for our communities, without dismissing other communities of color? Maybe only from looking back at pioneers in history and imagining where we can still go in the future. But it's one of the most powerful documentaries of the year. We learned a lot from making this season, every time we revisited a moment where work was being done to find interracial solidarity, even if there were and will continue to be numerous missteps along the way. We hope you took away something useful from our season too. Happy new year from Saturday School, and here's to being more prepared for whatever 2021 brings.

有人说，2020 年美国总统选举是这个国家史上最撕裂的大选。这样的撕裂在美国华人社区中也展现无遗，在微信和推特中文圈上，支持民主党与共和党的两派华人之间的骂战不绝于耳。华人新移民与在美国出生长大的华裔美国人之间的政治分化也加剧。许多美国华人家庭中，两代人因政治争吵不休。 这并非 2020 年大选一朝一夕造成的结果，而是近年来多个标志性政治事件与争议性政策日积月累形成的趋势。 第一代华人移民“右转”是近年来美国华人参政议政的一个显著现象，华人“川粉”为何力挺特朗普？推崇进步理念和多元族裔社会的民主党，为什么难以吸引第一代华人移民的支持？ 本期节目兆音请到了居住在纽约多年的记者荣筱箐，一起聊聊华人近年来在美国政治讨论中发出的多元声音。 【主播】 冯兆音，驻华盛顿记者 【嘉宾】 荣筱箐，纽约华文媒体记者，纽约时报中文网、财新等媒体的撰稿人 【后期】 Luke 【主要话题】 [02:50] 美国华人选民的撕裂程度难以想象 [03:43] 80 年代的「陈果仁」事件与亚裔社区兴起 [12:14] 「蓝」转「红」只是为了挑选符合自身利益的纲领 [27:56] 「川粉」仅仅只剩下疯狂吗？华裔的声音在哪里 [45:12] 从社交 APP 中发现华人参政势头渐起 【相关阅读】 陈果仁（Vincent Chin），美籍华人，1982 年在底特律被误认他为日裔的两名白人汽车工人殴打致死。此案被视为美国亚裔参与民权运动的关键转折点。 李爱晨（Ellen Lee Zhou），共和党籍加州政治人物，前旧金山（三藩市）市长候选人。 梁彼得（Peter Liang），前纽约市警员，2014 年巡逻时误杀阿凯·格里（Akai Gurley），后被判过失杀人、渎职。事件引发华人社区上街示威，指责梁彼得成为美国警察与非裔紧张关系中的替罪羊。 杨安泽（Andrew Yang），2020 年大选中曾参选民主党内的总统初选，有传他正筹备纽约市长选战。 美国的平权法案（Affirmative Action），在教育与就业上特别考虑历史上被排斥的群体，尤其是少数族裔与女性，以纠正过往与如今社会上存在的歧视。 《纽约时报》：“少数族裔一定会投票给民主党吗？” (https://cn.nytimes.com/opinion/20201123/immigrants-vote-election-politics/) 纽约时报中文网：“把华人‘川粉’当笑话，民主党恐会后悔” (https://cn.nytimes.com/opinion/20201120/dont-laugh-at-chinese-trump-supporters/) 纽约时报中文网：“你和非裔站在一起？两代华人的种族歧视大辩论” (https://cn.nytimes.com/opinion/20200618/chinese-black-racism-us/) 端传媒：“特朗普真的给华人VIP待遇了吗？” (https://theinitium.com/article/20160601-international-Trumpchinese/) 端传媒：“沉默的华人为什么为梁彼得站了出来？” (https://theinitium.com/article/20160224-international-PeterLiang1/) 【音乐】 * Book Bag-E's Jammy Jams 【关于我们】 网站：etw.fm (https://www.etw.fm/) 新浪微博：声东击西ETW 邮件：etwstudio@gmail.com 国内/外支持我们：https://www.etw.fm/donation Special Guest: 荣筱箐.

Hey everyone. I have a brief update to share about the show and some thoughts in light of the recent events. But before I do, I want to say loudly and clearly that Black Lives Matter. As an Asian-American, I think about the way anti-Blackness is embedded throughout Asian culture and society. I think about how this anti-Black sentiment showed itself when Asian-American communities rallied around NYPD officer Peter Liang for murdering Akai Gurley. I think about the affirmative action lawsuit against Harvard that Asians supported as being driven by the same anti-Black sentiment. And of course, there was the Hmong-American police officer standing by as George Floyd was murdered. If there is one thing that has driven me to create this podcast, it is the belief that true freedom cannot come at the expense of Black lives. I think silence in anti-Black violence will not give Asian any true place in a racist white supremacist world. The lacking of self-awareness and propagating anti-Black and anti-Brown rhetoric just so certain Asian can get ahead will not lead to a better place. My heart goes out to everyone protesting on the streets and doing the hard work to elevate Black voices and not black squares.Regarding this show, I did not release an episode last week. When I sat down to write the intro, no words came out. My podcast and voice seemed trite. I took it as a sign to not release my episode if I had to force words out when they were not ready. I also felt the voices that needed to be heard were Black voices. I then thought about this in relation to remaining silent and don’t have a clear answer. When I set out to make this podcast, I wanted to be able to confront my privilege as a Chinese-American cis male who went to college to study art and is able to travel to residencies while moving through the art world. I wanted to keep talking about race because I don’t believe one simply becomes “woke.” Talking about race is a lifelong commitment that never ends. I am forever learning and figuring out where these conversations fit within the larger picture.In lieu of a real episode, I posted on my website a list of resources for anyone interested. There is a lot out there and many of these materials are waiting to be used. Feel free to share and continue the discussion about how white supremacy and racism continues to pervade every aspect of our lives.So that’s the update. Again, thank you to everyone who has been supportive of this show as I couldn’t have gotten here without all the guests and listeners. I’ll resume my episodes starting next week. Until then, stay safe, stay healthy, and good bye for now.Image credit: @jerrygogosianhttps://www.instagram.com/jerrygogosian/Donations to Organizations:Black-Owned Bookstores (Publishers Weekly)Black Lives MatterBlack Lives Matter Los Angelesblacklivesmatters.carrd.coI Run With MaudJustice for Breonna TaylorJustice for George FloydMinnesota Freedom FundNational Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP)American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU)Bukit Bail FundReclaim the Block: fund our broader movementReadings and other resources:ANTI-RACISM RESOURCESWhat Is an Anti-Racist Reading List For?Critical Reading Google Drive FolderModernity + ColonialityThe Case for Reparations by Ta-Nehisi Coates20+ Allyship Actions for Asians to Show Up for the Black Community Right NowExtended Learning:Justice in June Google DocOver the course of the month, you will have spent 5 hours intentionally learning how to be an active ally of the black community.

George Floyd. Breonna Taylor. Ahmaud Arbery. Stephon Clark. Tamir Rice. Michael Brown. Philando Castile. John Crawford. Akai Gurley. Freddie Gray. We say their names over and over again. The list never stops. Black and Brown Americans murdered by police at wildly disproportionate rates, and a white America which refuses to surrender our power and privilege to stop this from happening. And in the middle of the latest national response to the murder of George Floyd comes Juneteenth. It’s a commemoration of the day in June when slaves were freed at the end of the Civil War. To mark this history, and to speak frankly about systemic racism, we have two episodes this week where we look at the history and the future of racism in America. On this powerful episode, our guest is Blair Imani. Blair is a critically-acclaimed historian, outspoken advocate and activist, and dynamic public speaker. The author of two historical books: Modern HERstory: Stories of Women and Nonbinary People Rewriting History and Making Our Way Home: The Great Migration and The Black American Dream, she centers women and girls, global Black communities, and the LGBTQ community. She is the co-host of America Did What?!, an educational podcast and anti-racism initiative with Kate Robards. --- This episode is sponsored by · Couple Things with Shawn and Andrew: Former Olympic Gymnast Shawn Johnson and NFL player Andrew East sit down to share their most vulnerable sides and open up like they never have before. https://open.spotify.com/show/7aGLm9HYn9mEyVr1FDzrpa?si=bgb4jh_nTyGiIabdk8BD8g --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/alyssa-milano-sorry-not-sorry/message

Irreversible Entanglements are a liberation-oriented free jazz collective formed in early 2015 by saxophonist Keir Neuringer, poet Camae Ayewa (a.k.a. Moor Mother) and bassist Luke Stewart, who came together to perform at a Musicians Against Police Brutality event organized after the slaying of Akai Gurley by the NYPD. Their music is soothing, chaotic, powerful, and deeply rooted in movements for Black freedom and resistance. Today on the Rebel Beat we're joined by Keir and Luke from the band who join us from Philly and Washington D.C. respectively to talk about their new album "Who sent you?", band life under lockdown, and the radical politics of jazz improvisation.

Bonus extended interview: https://www.patreon.com/posts/15197523 I talk to Marc Fliedner, who is running as a write-in candidate against Cy Vance the (up until now)unopposed candidate for Manhattan DA. Marc had already run for Brooklyn DA but when it was revealed that Vance had declined to prosecute Harvey Weinstein and had accepted money from Weinstein's lawyer, Fiedner decided to jump into the race. I talk to Marc about what and who convinced him to run, his historic conviction of NYPD officer Peter Liang in the killing of Akai Gurley, and what he would do as DA.

Justine Damond is "the most innocent victim" of a police shooting that her lawyer has ever seen. This quote comes from an attorney who worked with Philando Castile's family to get justice for Mr. Castile. Justine Damond was an innocent victim. No one disputes that. But what of all the other innocent victims? What makes Justine the "most innocent" among of group of innocent victims of police brutality? How is it that she is more innocent than Tamir Rice who was playing with a toy gun on a playground in an "open carry" state? Or Aiyana Stanley-Jones, a small child who was asleep on a couch in her own home?. Or John Crawford III who was examining a BB gun for sale in the fake gun aisle at Walmart? Or Akai Gurley, the man that NYC Police chief Bill Bratton dubbed "a completely innocent man" who stepped out of his apartment, only to be shot (by accident) by a rookie cop? Why are they less innocent than Ms. Damond? Where is the "Blue Lives Matter" crowd? They always rush to the defense of the officer when the dead person is Black. Why has the media erupted into self-righteous contempt for the Black Muslim officer who shot Justine Damond? They usally dig up any information that might help the officer. But in this case, they turned against the officer..They demand that this "killer cop" be brought to justice. *Now* they want police accountability. But the media and many Americans seem completely at peace whenever an innocent African American or Native American is gunned down curbside. The media sheds no tears for any innocent Black victim, not even 7 year old Aiyana Jones. They ask no questions when the courts repeatedly affirm that Black victims' lives do not count. The media and many white Americans remain unbothered when innocent Black blood is shed. But for Justine Damond, justice WILL be served. Believe it! Tues, July 25, 2017. 6 pm PT  

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly Compensatory Call-In. We encourage non-white listeners to dial in with their codified concepts, new terms, observations, research findings, workplace problems or triumphs, and/or suggestions on how best to Replace White Supremacy With Justice ASAP. We'll use these sessions to hone our use of words as tools to reveal truth, neutralize White people. We'll examine news reports from the past seven days and - hopefully - promote a constructive dialog. #ANTIBLACKNESS Kenneth P. Thompson, the first black district attorney of Brooklyn, New York, died this week. He was a husband, a father, and 50 years-old. Regrettably, many have used this time to deprecate Mr. Thompson's work, voicing dissatisfaction with the Peter Liang case. Liang, a former NYPD officer, was found guilty earlier this year for the 2014 killing of an unarmed black male, Akai Gurley. Liang was not sentenced to jail time. Thompson's critics ignore his years of counter-racist work, which includes convicting the White savage who anally raped Abner Louima in 1997. Thompson also stopped prosecuting low level cannabis offenses in his jurisdiction and " agreed to overturn 21 convictions and re-examine more than 100 in one of the most ambitious efforts of its kind." Because of his labor, some prisoners who were caged for decades were released. Mr. Thompson wasn't the only black public servant having a tough time in New York. Black firefighters launched a $150 million law suit against the FDNY, charging racial discrimination. In the Caribbean, Haiti continues to suffer from the calamity of Hurricane Matthew. The island of black folks are getting significantly less sympathy than Nate Parker's deceased White accuser. #AnswersForMiriamCarey INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p

I am interrupting our usual worship time this morning. This is somewhat intentional, this is an intentional interruption in what we usually do. We experienced an interruption in our week this last week as we heard the tragic news of Alton Sterling’s death in the early hours of July 5th, and then quickly followed by Philando Castile’s death on the evening of July 6th, and this was followed by the death of five police officers on the bloodiest day for law enforcement since 9/11. One of those officers was a man named Officer Michael Smith, a member at a church in Dallas that my friend helps pastor, a Godly man described by many. The New York Times headline this morning is “America Grieves, Tense and Weary”. I think that very much encapsulates the sentiment that we feel today as a nation, what we feel today in this room. We grieve. We are tense, and we’re weary. We as Christians, we as followers of Jesus are not going to ignore that grief or that tension; that’s not our calling. Silence is often interpreted as passive affirmation by those who are suffering. If you just lost a loved one and your friends don’t reach out to you, that is grievous as we navigate those things. Now I will expand that on a much larger term when it comes to the systems and structure of our nation. Talking about these things doesn’t bring about tension, it exposes tension. Dr. King said it this way: ...we are not the creators of tension. We merely bring to the surface the hidden tension that is already alive. We bring it out in the open, where it can be seen and dealt with. Like a boil that can never be cured so long as it is covered up but must be opened with all its ugliness to the natural medicines of air and light, injustice must be exposed, with all the tension its exposure creates, to the light of human conscience and the air of national opinion before it can be cured.So in light of that tension, that grief, that weariness, I do believe with all of my heart, that the redeeming message of Christianity, the hope of the gospel, the good news of Jesus Christ, is the best healing balm there is for all of us. Not just as individuals, but on a corporate, systemic level as well. We as Christians believe that God created humanity with diversity, and this is because God himself is diverse. God has always existed as three persons in one: Father Spirit and Son. And so when he created us in his image he didn’t create one gender, he created two genders. Male and female. Two genders together in his image. Both genders with dignity, as image-bearers who reflect the very image of God.So just as God has always been diverse, so he created us as human beings to represent him in his own diversity. Fast-forward through history to the world marred by sin and self-centeredness. We see that God is not pleased with our sin. God is a god of justice; sin does not go unpunished. But one thing we see all throughout scripture, all throughout the Hebrew Bible, all throughout the Old Testament, one thing that God is most frustrated by is the mistreatment of his image-bearers. He’s against the mistreatment of those that he has given greater dignity to than any in his created order. And so one thing that offends God most is when image bearers are marginalized, when they’re pushed out--when they’re treated as less than image-bearers. All throughout the old testament we see God highlighting that he stands with the fatherless, he stands with the widow, he stands with the poor, the marginalized, the sojourner, the immigrant; he stands with those that are treated with less value, less worth; those who are not given power or dignity. The heart of God is consistently with the marginalised and the oppressed and the disadvantaged of our world. God sides with image-bearers that are not treated with the dignity of image-bearers. To those who follow God, he expects that they have the same heart…Prov 29:7- “A righteous man knows the rights of the poor; a wicked man does not understand such knowledge.” So we should know the rights of the poor, the oppressed, the voiceless, the disadvantaged. Prov 21:13- “Whoever closes his ear to the cry of the poor will himself call out and not be answered.” If we close our ears to the needs of the poor, the writer of Proverbs here is saying God won’t hear our prayers. Again and again the nation of Israel, the nation of Judah, were judged because of their mistreatment of the poor, the marginalized. Of injustice among them. God expects his people to side with image-bearers who are not treated with the dignity of image-bearers, those who are treated as less than human, those of less value than other humans.So when a father is shot without due process and the right to trial, we must care. When a cafeteria supervisor traveling with his girlfriend and daughter is shot and killed while reaching for his wallet and not being given medical attention, we must care. When police officers who are guarding a peaceful protest and protecting the right of these 800 or so individuals to fulfill their First Amendment rights to gather, to assemble, and they’re shot down by snipers, we must care.No matter the reason or cause behind actions, any image-bearer who is killed should cause us to care. What we witnessed this last week are not one-time issues, not one-time events. This is a tragic trend among us. African American men are more likely to be arrested, incarcerated, executed or murdered than their white peers. According to the FBI, black Americans are disproportionately more likely to be stopped, arrested, and killed by police. Just a 2015 study of last year showed that young black men are nine times more likely than any other Americans to be killed by police officers. When I’m pulled over while driving, I’m concerned about whether or not I’m going to get a ticket. I don’t fear for my life. That’s a sign of privilege for me. The conversations that my friend CJ had to have growing up about what he should do in a similar situation were entirely different from what my parents had to instruct me on. The reality of scripture is that there not only is individual sin, there is corporate sin. Israelites individually sinned, the nation of Israel together also sinned. There is systemic sin, and this here is a systemic issue. It’s not a recent issue, it didn’t start last week. This is generations in the making, centuries in the making. I’ve got to own this, my own generations. I’ve got ancestors on both sides of the civil war. This is generations in the making and this not going to be fixed by some quick, silver bullet. This is a life-threatening wound that needs to be addressed, that needs to be healed. So when we see in all of this, when we see a march just before our service go by, when we see a hashtag flash across our screens saying Black Lives Matter, the reality of scripture is yes, it’s true, black lives do matter. Black lives should be afforded the same worth, value, and dignity as any other image-bearers lives. Without question. In our country they are not, and something here needs to change. And while I can’t possibly feel the pain as sharply as my black sisters and brothers, or those of other racial or cultural minorities, I am absolutely committed to mourning with them, and standing for justice with them. “Whoever closes his ear to the cry of the poor will himself call out and not be answered.” “A righteous man knows the rights of of the poor, a wicked man does not understand such knowledge.”But can legislation fix this? What about all of this unpunished injustice, generations of unpunished injustice, what about our own hearts’ propensity to selfishness and sin, or to distrust those who are different than ourselves, what about those things? In Jesus Christ justice and mercy meet. God declares all this systemic and individual selfishness and racism, and silent bigotry and mistreatment of others that we do, to be so evil that it demands death. But he loves us so much that he took it upon himself. God set aside his privilege and he entered into our world, dressed like the marginalized and disadvantaged image-bearers that he loves so much. And by his unjust death on our behalf justice is served and we can be forgiven. Ultimately Jesus came to show us that we are all poor, we are all broken, we are all marginalized, we’re all lost and we have to be saved, we have to be saved by someone other than ourselves. Jesus doesn’t just save individuals, he redeems systems and structures and cultures and peoples. It’s through the forgiving death and resurrection of Jesus that all races and socioeconomic levels and cultures can be fully reconciled. We can be made family by the very love of God. One day when Jesus returns and when he makes all things new, we will worship him with every tongue and every cultural expression of music and dancing that the world has ever known. He began our story creating us with diversity and he will love us in the midst of our diversity forever. So we won’t move on as the 24-hour news cycle moves on, as it picks up on other sensational events. We as Apostles Brooklyn will not. We are going to care about Philando Castile and Alton Sterling just as we care about Michael Brown, and Eric Garner, and Akai Gurley, and systemic sin in our city, and our country, and our world, and of privilege, and racial and cultural reconciliation, because if we are saved in Jesus and devoted to our God, we as Christians should care more than anyone else. We have to be more committed than anyone else. So as we continue this long journey by God’s grace I’m going to encourage us with three things:1) We are going to weep with those who weep; we’re going to have compassion. We are going to grieve together. If you don’t feel the pain that so many feel, seek understanding. Ask questions without responding. Listen first. Show compassion and care as Jesus has shown you. Grieve with those who grieve. In the coming months and years we’re committed as a church to continue this. To talk about this. To open doors for conversations for greater understanding and compassion…2) Seek justice. As Jesus set aside glory to come and serve, so we get to leverage our own resources and privilege and lives to meet needs, and give generously, and to love and serve the marginalized, and to love as the gospel empowers. So we must stand with the revealed will of God. Stand with truth, and stand against unjust mistreatment and dehumanization of image-bearers. We’ve got to participate as good citizens who seek the welfare of our city and nation. Legislation can do a lot, we should pursue good justice, but it can’t fix hearts. And so our third thing, and probably our most important thing, is that we’re going to:3) Pray. We’re going to pray for peace and reconciliation between races and cultures and socio-economic levels in our city and nation. We’re going to confess our own apathy or bigotry or divisiveness or prejudice, whatever it is, we’re going to confess that freely. We’re going to seek to forgive those who have sinned against us; we’re going to seek understanding in prayer; we’re going to pray for compassion and love; we’re going to pray for unity within our church; pray for perseverance; to seek justice no matter the cost; pray for transformation among our justice system; pray for protection, and care, and wisdom, and discernment for our law enforcement officers; pray for strength in fighting temptation to be apathetic toward this injustice. So we’re going to start with that now. We’re going to do a corporate lament this morning. Laments are found all throughout the scriptures. They are more than just feeling down, they are sitting in it. It is more than a hospital visit; it is a funeral attendance. So we’re going to start with a corporate lament today. I am going to invite all of us to stand up in this together. This is an opportunity for solidarity among us. Whether this hits close to home or whether this is something that you were hardly even aware of this week we need to be in this together. Father we come to you today with heavy hearts. The killings of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile and the subsequent killings of 5 police officers unite our hearts in grief. Forgive our individual sin, our corporate sin, the systemic injustice of our nation and the distrust and division that exists among us. Lord God, heal our world.We look to our own hearts and see indifference, ignorance and fear. We are hopelessly lost apart from your Son.Lord God, heal our broken hearts. Today Christians of all races and cultures will gather in separate churches, engage separate communities and display division instead of expressing the unity that you bring us as one church, one body of Christ united with one Spirit.Lord God heal our broken churches.Father God through your son Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit move in our hearts and minds to act justly, love mercy and walk among you. Amen.

Cathy Dang visits The Context of White Supremacy. As the Executive Director of Committee Against Anti-Asian Violence (CAAAV), Ms. Dang has lead campaigns for just living and working conditions in immigrant and communities of color for nearly ten years. She has dedicated years of her life to community organizing in immigrant communities. Ms. Dang and CAAAV have been deeply involved with the 2014 shooting death of Akai Gurley. The unarmed black male was shot and killed by a Chinese-American NYPD officer, Peter Liang. Earlier this year, Liang was convicted of manslaughter, but was not sentenced to jail time. Thousands of Asian Americans across the country launched massive protests in support of Peter Liang, suggesting that he was being scapegoated and was also a victim. Ms. Dang has consistently asserted that Liang should be held accountable for killing a US citizen. She used this case to illustrate how "Asian Americans are complicit and complacent to uphold white supremacy." #AnswersForMiriamCarey INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p

First Dr. Frances Cress Welsing, Natalie Cole, Dr. Delbert Blair and Maurice White all died at the beginning of the year. Now, musical prodigy Prince passed away suddenly at the age of 57. Questions surround his cause of death and the value of his estate; Whites again are clamoring to display their regard for a dead black person - who notoriously compared himself to being a "slave" to White music magnates. Speaking of slavery, Whites announced that counter-terrorist and black liberator Harriet Tubman will be the new face of the U.S. twenty dollar bill - black enslaver, White Supremacist and former President Andrew Jackson will be relocated to the back of the bank note. Speaking of Racist elected officials, criminal charges have been filed against several White Michigan officials for the poisoning of the predominantly black city of Flint; Governor Rick Snyder was not one of the officials indicted. Speaking of accountability, former NYPD officer and convicted killer Peter Liang was sentenced to zero days in jail for the 2014 shooting death of Akai Gurley. While black people die world wide with few tears or adequate redress, Whites spent much of the week hand-wringing news from the Centers For Disease Control, which reports that the life expectancy of White Women declined. Unsurprisingly, even in during the current rough patch White chics still outlive black males by approximately a decade on average. #BlackMentalHealth INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p

Wherever you look, ignorance, hate, and injustice are in full view. In the last week, two trans women were murdered: ShanteThompson, 34, of Houston, Texas on April 10, 2016.  And Keyonna Blakeney, 22, of Upper Marlboro, Maryland on April 16, 2016. After allegedly arguing with officers, Wakeisha Wilson, 36, was found dead in her jail cell at the LAPD detention center on Easter Sunday. Her family was informed three days later. The cops say it was suicide. Peter Liang, the former NY police officer who was convicted of shooting "total innocent" Akai Gurley to death has been sentenced. Chicago mayor Rahm Emmanuel's task force has determined that the Chicago Police Department has a history of using excessive force against minorities, perpetuates a code of silence and has "no regard for the sanctity of life when it comes to people of color." Hot on the heels of North Carolina and Mississippi's recent anti-gay legislation comes the passage of Tennessee's anti-gay counseling bill which will allow medical professionals to reject treating LGBTQ patients based on "sincerely held principals." Not to be undone, Michigan state senator Tom Casperson has introduced anti-trans restroom legislation. A 12 year study by Northwestern University and published in the American Journal of Public Health contradicts the popular stereotype that Black youths do more drugs than White yourths. Indeed, they do much fewer drugs, but disproportionately account for the majority of arrests and convictions. All this and more. Tuesday, April 19, 6pm Pacific

Alan Montecillo looks at the aftermath of Officer Peter Liang's conviction. In February, he was convicted of manslaughter for fatally shooting Akai Gurley, an unarmed black man in Brooklyn.

Somethin' In Common is back with a new episode and you know we are talking about all the political foolishness going down including Donald Trump and Ted Cruz comparing wives and Ben Carson endorsing Donald Trump, We are also discussing the DA recommending no jail time for ex cop Peter Liang who was convicted of killing Akai Gurley, we have another Blacker than Black news segment involving the man who tried to buy a BMW with food stamps,  Mike and Kim also tell the story of finally making some friends to hang out with this past weekend and the challenges of being an introvert couple.  That and much more right here.  Check us out.  

Spring has sprung and several U.S. states have seen this as the perfect time to sow the seeds of discrimination and oppression. North Carolina passed a vicious anti-LGBTQ bill, HB2. It was introduced and passed, all in one day! NC Attorney General announced he will not defend the "shameful" law. Hot on North Carolina's heels, Georgia passed the anti-gay "Religious Freedom" bill. On Monday, Governor Nathan Deal vetoed the bill as he declared he would. Inmates in New York are routinely denied feminine menstrual products and supplies. Often this is a tactic used to control and punish. A New York City councilwoman is trying to change this. Kansas students get a $2500 reward if they rat on their transgender classmates for being in the "wrong" bathroom. In Arizona, where polling places have been cut back statewide, the Phoenix mayor has called on a federal investigation into voting problems. Arizona cut back the number of polling places statewide, but for some reason, the city of Phoenix where minorities comprise the majority of the population, got a disproportionately small number of voting stations. In Brooklyn, the DA recommends no jail time for Peter Liang, the police officer who killed Akai Gurley. In Oklahoma, Daniel Holtzclaw, the cop who was convicted of raping 13 black women, is no longer listed in the Oklohoma prison system. This makes it difficult for his victims who filed a lawsuit against him. A scathing report by an independent investigations task force says the the state of Michigan, under the leadership of Gov. Rick Synder, was "fundamentally accountable" for the Flint tap water poisoning. In Brooklyn, Glen Grays was doing his job delivering the mail. He was harrassed and beaten up by four cops for criticising their driving. A 27 year old woman, Loreal Tsingine, was killed by police in Arizona. Tuesday, March 29, 6pm PST

While the global White community coalesces to rebuke and avenge the attacks, Gus thinks this could be a fraction of what's do (chickens coming home to roost) for the Belgian genocide of black people in the Congo. United States presidential candidates recalibrated their talking points to speak to the alleged terrorist menace. While Donald J. Trump and Hillary R. Clinton maintain considerable delegate leads in the chase for nomination, in Arizona another alleged Trump protester was bum-rushed. Only this time, a black male, Staff Sgt. Tony Pettway, was detained for cracking the noggin of a White man, Trump dissenter Bryan Sanders. Speaking of police, Peter Liang, the former NYPD officer and convicted killer of Akai Gurley, received a recommendation from the district attorney that he not be incarcerated; the Gurley family was "blindsided." New York hip hop icon and A Tribe Called Quest co-founder Phife Dawg died this week at the age of 45. Former mayor of Toronto, crack smoker and Suspected Racist Rob Ford also died. He was 46. Speaking of disreputable public officials, an independent panel concluded that Michigan Governor Rick Snyder, state officials and the Environmental Protection Agency once again showed flagrant "disregard for the concerns" and health of the mostly black citizens of Flint. #AnswersForMiriamCarey INVEST in The COWS â?? paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p

Professor Daniel Shaw visits The Context of White Supremacy. A Golden Gloves boxer having twice fought in Madison Square Garden, Shaw teaches Latin American and Caribbean Studies and Race, Ethnicity, Class and Gender at the City University of New York. He's authored five books including: My Son Blazes within Me: Reflections on a Poor "white" Family's Survival and 365 Days of Resistance. Professor Shaw provided one of the most tacky illustrations of White Supremacy in the seven year history of The C.O.W.S. We're always excited to converese with Whites who allege to be working against Racism and willing to speak truthfully about The Problem/Racism. We'll get his view on the presidential election and likelihood of Donald Trump occupying the White House. We'll also get his thoughts on the Akai Gurley trial and the protests in support of convicted killer Peter Liang. We'll also see if he's been following the University of Albany kerfuffle where three black females have been charged with fabricating accusations of Racism. #AnswersForMiriamCarey INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p

Skin Privilege on Fleek! Über driver shoots and kills six in Michigan. He is apprehended without a scratch. The media calls this an "isolated incident" and paints him - not as a "thug" - but as a "lone wolf" suffering from "mental illness". Sound familiar? In Cincinnati, the day after police carefully and safely arrested a Caucasian man who brandished his weapon at them and verbally threatened them, the cops killed a black man, Paul Gaston, who was legally carrying a BB gun in an "open carry" state. You surprised? The supporters of former NYPD officer Peter Liang say he was only convicted because he's Chinese. They insist that he be allowed to get off like a white cop would. Akai Gurley be damned. Edward Currie, 31, died in Sacramento, CA police custody. As of Monday, Feb 22, the police refused to give information to his family. Wash, rinse, repeat. Off-duty NYPD chief is harassed by an officer who didn't recognize him. Guess why? All this and more. Tuesday, Feb 23, 6pm. Pacific

Supreme Court Justice Scalia is dead and, predictably, black people are being scolded and asked to tone down our glee and refrain from speaking ill of the old devil. Not today, Satan. The Dept of Justice has insisted that Ferguson, MO changes the way it treats its black residents. Mayor Jay Knowles and the city counsel gave the DOJ the finger, but the Justice Dept is pushing back. Not today, Satan. Beyoncé performs at the Super Bowl and Kendrick Lamar performs at the Grammys. White racist America loses its damn mind. Not today, Satan. NYPD officer Peter Liang requested that the judge declare his case a mistrial for the shooting death of "total innocent" Akai Gurley. The judge denied the mistrial and Liang was convicted. Not today, Satan. Tonight, Feb 16, 6pm Pacific

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly Compensatory Call-In. We encourage non-white listeners to dial in with their codified concepts, new terms, observations, research findings, workplace problems or triumphs, and/or suggestions on how best to Replace White Supremacy With Justice ASAP. We'll use these sessions to hone our use of words as tools to reveal truth, neutralize White people. We'll examine news reports from the past seven days and - hopefully - promote a constructive dialog. #ANTIBLACKNESS The White "sheriff" Peyton Manning triumphed over (black) Panther Cam Newton and the Carolina football squad. In the subsequent days, Whites invested equal time rejoicing over Newton's defeat and admonishing his Trayvonesque press conference as well as Beyonce's halftime performance of her new single "Formation." Former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani and others branded the Grammy-winning vocalist a "racist" and protested in front of NFL headquarters for allowing her to perform an homage to the Black Panther Party. Speaking of the Big Apple and police terrorism, NYPD officer Pete Liang was found guilty for the 2014 killing of Akai Gurley. Liang could face up to 15 years in prison. The Gurley killing took place within weeks of the non-indictment of Michael Brown Jr.'s killer in 2014. This week Attorney General Loretta Lynch and the Department of Justice announced their plan to sue the City of Ferguson for failure to comply with federal guidelines for reforming the police department that terrorized and financially extorted black Missourians. Speaking of antiblack, the trailer for The Purge 3 was released. #AnswersForMiriamCarey INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p

This week on Bag Ladiez we get an update from the #UAlbany incident (sort of), updates on the Akai Gurley trial happening right now in Brooklyn, more #animalrights (yo we stay talking about this lol), and Lunar New Year Celebrations (happy year of the Monkey!). We’re unpacking baggage surrounding culture and when it’s sometimes just kind of embarrassing to explain yourself (shoutout to our moms who don’t speak English but act like they do!). Also we’re so far gone on the #Hamilton train and we explain why and yooo we got an email from someone asking our advice! We think we gave some good advice but then again we’re Dominican and extra so do with it what you will haha. You can find all the links for our stories below!

Nate Parker's biopic on freedom fighter Nat Turner lit up the 2015 Sundance Film Festival; Fox Searchlight doled out $17.5 million for the highly acclaimed production. Speaking of blacks who were killed, the trial in the 2014 shooting death of Akai Gurley began this week in New York City. Non-white (Asian) officer Peter Liang faces manslaughter charges for killing the unarmed black male in 2014; if convicted he could face up to 15 years behind bars. On the opposite side of the country, the White Terrorist confrontation in Oregon climaxed with multiple arrests and one fatality as enforcement officials killed Robert Finicum. Some of the armed White thugs remain entrenched on the federal property, despite pleas from their detained White comrades that they surrender. And the pacific northwest's own Macklemore released his ode to "anti-racism," "White Privilege II." Whitefolks are much more comfortable - and benefit - from describing terrorism and total war on black people as a "privilege." #RacismIsNotAPrivilege INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p

Flint, Michigan: environmental racism on display. The powers-that-be have knowingly, and with forethought, poisoned the tap water of the predominately black city since April 2014. This atrocity was recently uncovered and publicized, but no one has yet been held accountable. Water bills continue to be issued and the residents have been warned that they risk losing custody of their children if they don't pay for the poisoned water. The local EPA official quit last week. There is demand for Michigan's Republican govornor to resign. And there are rumors that undocumented immigrants in Flint are being refused the bottled water that has been sent to the area. Environmental racism is real. According to the The Center for Public Integrity, out of "300 complaints filed by communities of color, the EPA have never once made a formal finding of a civil-rights violation." Another black youth has died in custody. Her name was Gynna McMillen. She was 16. The trial of the officer who shot and killed Akai Gurley in NYC has begun. On the day he was shot, Akai Gurley was declared to be a "total innocent" by Chief Bill Bratton. But that doesn't stop the NYPD officer Peter Liang from attempting to avoid criminal responsibilty. President Obama bans solitary confinement for juveniles in federal prisons. Grand jury indicts two anti-abortion activists behind the fake Planned Parenthood videos. In response, Texas doubles down on its intention to completely financially strip the state Planned Parenthood. A federal court in North Carolina will hear a challenge to the state's restrictive voter ID law. And more. Tuesday, January 26, 6pm Pacific.

News about Akai Gurley's killer, Tamir Rice update, Kendrick Johnson's parents face charges for protesting, "On This Day In Black History" and much more. Featuring the music of Damien "Jr. Gong" Marley, BB King, Tupac, Sweet Honey in The Rock, and more. Pre-recorded and aired at a special time, due to technical difficulties at Blog Talk Radio, this is the episode that was originally scheduled to go live on February 10, 2015.  (75 min.)

The same White Terrorism was demonstrated in North Carolina, where Craig Stephen Hicks killed three non-white Muslims; his ex-wife stated, "He had no compassion at all." The non-white NYPD officer who killed Akai Gurley was indicted. The White director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, James Comey, discussed the police Terrorism that spawns uncalculated massacres like Akai Gurley's by quipping that, "Everyone's a Little Bit Racist." Karl Malone thinks black people should stop begging for handouts, and Jackie Robinson West little league champions are now empty handed. Whites decided the black team used ineligible children and abolished their victory. Suspected Race Soldier Brian Williams has been suspended from NBC for six months without pay for practicing deceit; the New York Times urged us to forgive a Racist Suspect who likely contributed to black people dying during Hurricane Katrina. #AnswersForMiriamCarey INVEST in The COWS - http://tiny.cc/ledjb CALL IN NUMBER: 760.569.7676 CODE 564943# SKYPE: FREECONFERENCECALLHD.7676 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p
