Understanding the Significance of Community Outreach Programs is key for communities and law enforcement to work together to create successful programs that will benefit those who need those services and programs. Why did it take the killing of George Floyd to spark an American Uprising and communities and organizations across the United States to create diversion programs or other alternative programs? But are those programs working in those communities? Tune in live on Thursday at 6PM CST. With the cohost chiefs with You And The Law Podcast as they discuss are community outreach programs created by default or design. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/youandthelaw/support

Negligent Federal Inaction – The Cause of Pending American UprisingThe Federal Government cannot pass a budget.  Liberal Democratic extremists have broken the political back of Nancy Pelosi.  Like Biden she is soon to be the “Lame Duck”.  Don't be surprised if she resigns from office.  The unintended consequence of the actions of these Progressive Liberals, is that they have broken the unified front the Democrats wanted.   As a result reckless spending will not pass.  This mean the best Biden can hope for is a bill with attention to the environment.  No incentives for economic growth.  Biden's European Environmental Summit has two absent players, Russia and China.  They could care less about the environment as China ramps up their world domination.  Democrats are missing the big picture as China builds coalitions to demoralize and seize our Democracy. Originally Aired: WMXI Radio on 29 October 2021Listen.

It's not always thought to be wise, most profitable, or popular. Doing the right thing has more to do with “COURAGE”; forged from the principles and beliefs given to you by your parents. There's an ole' saying I've adopted, “The Politician will tell you what you want to hear. The Leader will tell you what you need to know.” And, telling you what you need to know may not be popular”. So, my Accomplishments here do not show you things I've walked away from. As a result, I left A LOT of money on the table. However, God is good! He rewarded me with more wealth than I can speak of with a conscience that is pure and clear. I sleep well at night.

This is the incredible story of a Second World War shoot-out between black and white American soldiers in a quiet Cornish town that ended up putting the ‘special relationship' itself on trial. The subsequent court martial into what tabloids labelled a ‘wild west' mutiny became front page news in Great Britain and the USA. Three thousand miles across the Atlantic, it mirrored and bolstered a fast-accelerating civil rights movement. At home it caused Churchill himself ‘grave anxiety' while refracting an extraordinary truth about the real state of Anglo-American relations. For three long days the story raged before the turbulent war-torn world moved on and forgot forever amid ever-escalating D-Day preparations. This account of a shocking drama the authorities tried to hush up has been painstakingly pieced back together for the first time thanks to new archival research. When slotted into its unique context, extracted from wartime cabinet documents, secret government surveys, opinion polls, diaries, letters and newspapers as well as testimony from those who remember it, the story offers a rare and stunning window into a little-known dark side of the ‘American Invasion.' By breathing new life into a vanished trial, it reveals a rare and surprising insight into the wider story of how Britain reacted to soldiers of the Jim Crow army when they came to stay. Kate read this extract as part of the Cream of Cornwall event at North Cornwall Book Festival 2021.

“The straw that broke the camel's back!” Kate Werran is the author of An American Uprising in Second World War England: Mutiny in the Duchy - a non-fiction book about five fateful minutes in 1943 when a Cornish market town became the centre stage to a dramatic ‘wild west' shoot out between black and white American G.I's. The subsequent court-martial made daily headlines in both Britain and America – to the rising alarm of Whitehall and Washington – and reveals a surprising new side to Britain, race and the real “special relationship” in World War Two. Kate discusses the research that surprised her and how her chosen metaphor fits into her findings. Join us on our socials, we'd love to hear from you!

“They went from there across the railroad into what is known as Darktown and Brooklyn; they had sent a committee to remove all the white women and their children down town, where they had prepared a guard to keep them secure. They marched through the streets protected by these military and citizen regulators, perfectly safe.”

Once the supporters of white supremacy in New Hanover County (Wilmington, NC) gained the desired victories on election day, November 8, 1898, they were not finished. There were other offices in the city they wanted such as mayor of the city, chief of police and aldermen—even though those positions were not on the ballot or up for change.

“There is little doubt that if a Republican ticket is brought out for county offices, the situation here will become more serious than ever. The Democrats, have carried out their part of the arrangement with the Governor by changing their candidates for the lower House of Legislature, and they are furious over the talk of a Negro county ticket.”

We stand with the Black Lives Matter movement in advocating for racial justice, and against police violence. Wynter and her family have also suffered a personal tragedy, so this episode is in somber observance of this, as well as our current national events. Queer scholars & activists, Homay King and Jeanne Vaccaro join Karen to offer reports and resources for social justice actions, including ways of contributing for those who cannot participate in street actions. They discuss the media coverage of protests, race, and the pandemic, while reflecting on how race, feminism and LGBTQ politics intersect, or fail to, in “pride month” media and entertainment, including the recent Hulu original series Mrs. America. Nuo-lingo focuses on the concept of “mutual aid” and what it truly means, while the panelists offer resources for what to read, what to watch, and how to educate yourselves & others about race, justice, and sexuality in America.  Instead of another plea to contribute to us this week, we ask that you contribute to the social justice organizations of your choice, especially those promoting peace, and racial, gender and sexual equality.

Most Black parents had “the talk” about race and racism with their children, but far fewer non-Black parents have. And “the talk” matters – for all kids -- because what we learn when we’re young sticks with us. So, as the world protests the death of George Floyd and other Black people at the hands of police, how can parents best help their kids understand what’s happening, and how to build a better world? Host Tyrmaine Lee speaks to Dr. Beverly Daniel Tatum, a leading expert on how to talk to kids about race and racism, especially at this critical moment, and why starting young is so critical.

One thing feels different about the current protests we are seeing following the recent deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery: the composition of the crowds.In some parts of the country, white Americans are showing up. They are protesting, taking the knee, and flooding social media. There seems to be a renewed call for white accountability. But is posting and protesting enough? And will this energy last?Trymaine Lee talks to Tim Wise, an anti-racist essayist, author and educator, about what white people can do to dismantle the systems of inequality in this country.For a transcript, please visit https://www.msnbc.com/intoamerica.Tim Wise’s Recommended Reads: Stamped from the Beginning: The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America, Ibram X.

A special welcome to all new subscribers!  Today’s episode is about the murder of George Floyd and the actions around the country. A few days ago, Jay wrote in our newsletter about Tou Thao, the Hmong cop who participated in Floyd’s killing, and “the myths of Asian American solidarity.” Jay describes what motivated this post, and we discuss when Asian American self-reflection is useful versus narcissisticTammy and Jay describe the protests they attended in Brooklyn and Oakland, respectively, over the weekend (May 29 and 30). We also discuss the allegation—made by local, state, and national officials as well as liberal media—that the uprisings in Minneapolis and other cities have been the work of “outside agitators.” Finally, Andy asks whether having an international spotlight on these protests could serve progressive ends. 0:30- We discuss Jay’s essay, “Tou Thao and the Myths of Asian American Solidarity,” which preceded the first Minnesota protests.5:45 -  Street updates from Tammy (Brooklyn) and Jay (Oakland). 26:50- Tammy explains the theory and practice of mutual aid, and we unpack the unsubstantiated news of “outside agitators.” (Note that the Minneapolis government retracted this claim after an investigation into arrest records, but other parties have continued to run with it.) 59:20- Andy lays out a bizarre parallel: American conservatives support the Hong Kong protests but denounce Black Lives Matter; tankies believe the opposite. Could this moment present an opportunity for international solidarity? How might we use international criticism of the U.S. to support a left agenda?ABOUT USTime to Say Goodbye is a podcast—with your hosts, Jay Caspian Kang, Tammy Kim, and Andy Liu.

After that he got his graduate degree at Stanford, and then he opened Verdad Capital, the thesis for Verdad Capital is that private equity, when invested at high valuations isn't a good asset class, but rather, you can replicate that strategy on a micro cap scale with the public markets.

I was up able to tell in this podcast band is an avid reader and thinker. I won't say too much. So let's just dive in, enjoy this episode with Dan Rasmussen. I wanted to start off with something that is not directly related to investing because just doing a little background research on you. And I find it really interesting that you're actually a New York Times bestselling author on slave revolution so can you just tell us a little bit about that. Dan Rasmussen 2:23 I wrote a book it was actually my senior thesis was my junior paper then my senior thesis and then after college when I was working at Bain Capital actually spent nights and weekends, turning my thesis into the into a book called American uprising Untold Story of America's largest slave revolt which you can buy on Amazon and I highly recommend doing so. Get a good plug in for the book. But the story was fascinating. It's the largest slave world American history. They marched towards the city, they were flying flags beating drums, they had uniforms and their goal was to create a Haitian Revolution style event in the United States. They failed. The Revolution was brutally suppressed. And the story was largely written out of history and what I did to uncover it was actually a lot of data and analytical work so actually built a database of every slave that have participated in the result revolt you know where they came from what we knew about them from each individual source, and then I mapped those that database on to old land maps that I found from around that time and then I actually use Google Maps to say okay well if we knew that these five people came from this...

World Footprints will take listeners on a journey that follows the North Star today from slavery to navigating the oceans. Many Americans are familiar with the slave revolts led by John Brown and Nat Turner, but the story of the greatest act of slave resistance in American history took place in 1811 and has remained largely untold, until now. Daniel Rasmussen, acclaimed author of American Uprising: The Untold Story of America’s Largest Slave Revolt has pulled back the curtain on a long neglected period in New Orleans and he joins World Footprints to discuss his research and provide a glimpse into the history of slavery in the South and our nation’s path to Civil War. Then, Bradley Myles, Executive Director and CEO of Polaris Project joins World Footprints. Named after the North Star that guided slaves towards freedom along the Underground Railroad, Polaris Project has been providing a comprehensive approach to combating human trafficking and modern-day slavery since 2002. Polaris Project has created the National Human Trafficking hotline in order to combat human trafficking. Finally, meet SEAsoned chef Victoria Allman. Many people have wondered what it’s like to live on a super-yacht that cruises the oceans and docks in exotic ports around the world and Victoria Allman tells all in her new book, SEAsoned: A Chef’s Journey with her Captain. Victoria joins World Footprints to offer a first-hand account of her journey as a yacht chef with her husband Patrick on his first assignment as Captain. From their comical adventures with their inexperienced crew, and dysfunctional passengers to the violent storm, rapidly flooding engine room and great mouth-watering recipes, SEAsoned offers a great adventure & cookbook.

New Orleans has been the backdrop of many dark chapters in American history, but perhaps none so shocking as the slave rebellion of 1811.  We will explore the history of America's largest slave revolt with author Daniel Rasmussen who organized his research in his book, American Uprising:  The Untold Story About America's Largest Slave Revolt. The New Orleans African-American Museum of Art, Culture and History, located in Faubourg Treme, is helping to keep the stories of America's oldest and continuous black community alive.  Established in 2000, former executive director John Hankins tells us that the Museum has held the mission "to preserve, interpret and promote" the African American cultural heritage of New Orleans, with a particular empasis on the Treme community. Le Musee de F.P.C. is a beautiful house museum that honors the legacy of New Orleans' Free People of Color. History will echo off the walls and along the wooden floor boards as we walk through this Greek Revival house in Upper Treme with Beverly McKinna.  The rich and varied culture of New Orleans is seen in its food, music, traditions and architecture.  History professor, Dr. Mary Mitchell, says that New Orleans has its own rhythm and energy that is influenced by Africans, Native Americans and European settlers and she gave us a taste of New Orleans as we soaked up the world flavors in the French Quarter.

Rasmussen, the author of "American Uprising, the Untold Story of America's Largest Slave Revolt" tells the story of this deeply covered up slave rebellion in 1811 - how it took shape, how it was fought, the savage repression against the rebellious slaves and it's significance for today. In an excerpt from his recorded talk on Communism and Jeffersonian Democracy Avakian talks about the myth of Jefferson's ideal society and the reality of slavery that provided its backbone and continues to influence and shape America as we know it today.

For those who listened last week, we did not conclude this show because another highly needed discussion arose from a great caller. So tonight, NYAME ADOM, we will conclude our discussion on this great book. Jan. 8th, 1811 was the largest enslaved Afrikan revolt in the united states. Close to 500 enslaved Afrikans in New Orleans rose up to TAKE their freedom, immediately off the heels of the successful Haitian Revolution just 7 years prior. We will conclude our talk on this book that gives--FINALLY- a national spot light to this deliberately unspoken of part of stolen Afrikan history. AMERICAN UPRISING, by caucasoid Daniel Rasmussen.
