Black Lives Matter is more than just words, it's a simple and short, yet powerful and complex verbal manifestation of American history. It rings true always, not just when our screens are filled with the blood of Black bodies. So today, a day when our media is distracted by other problems - and there are many - we take a moment to remind ourselves that the work must continue, especially on a day like this, because Black Lives Still Matter.
We devote most of Wednesday's Houston Matters to reaction to the Derek Chauvin verdict from local leaders, activists, and you. You can join the conversation with a call, email, or tweet. Throughout the hour, we hear from local Congressional leaders Sheila Jackson Lee and Al Green, along with Black Lives Matter activist Ashton P. Woods and Meredith Duncan, a criminal law expert from the UH Law Center. Plus: We discuss what other local, state, and national... Read More

It’s What the Heck Wednesday on “Political Misfits,” as hosts Jamarl Thomas and Bob Schlehuber break down the results of Super Tuesday voting in the Democratic primary. Jamarl dishes out some tough love to Bernie Sanders, who, through his lack of aggression, is failing in his mandate to his movement to win, whatever it takes. It’s time to recognize who your enemies are, Bernie. Communications strategist Teresa Lundy, principle at TML Communications, joined the misfits again to talk about the African American vote in this contest. Sanders, who had a poor showing among black voters, launched a new ad touting past praise from Barack Obama ‒ but is it too little too late? Where are Sanders’ high-profile African American endorsements, and how should the senator bring his civil rights history to the forefront? Ashton P. Woods, community activist with Black Lives Matter Houston and a candidate for Texas House District 146, joined the fray to break down the Texas democratic primary vote and what happened to break the Texas wave toward Biden. Communities are not monoliths, Woods cautioned, and while some voters want a return to normalcy at all costs, a normal that includes the current levels of police violence, poverty and barriers to health care is not something to be aspired to. Dr. Bill Honigman, national outreach lead for Progressive Democrats of America, reported on the results from California, where Sanders had a crucial victory. The Left Coast is still the epicenter of the blue wave, Honigman reassured the misfits, even if it is not yet a tsunami. But the Democratic machine stepped in and did what it needed to to block a revolution, and the surge of youth voters hasn’t yet materialized. Convincing the youth that their votes matter will be key to continued progress. The misfits also discussed the real winner of the night, the corporate media, and the role their nonstop positive coverage of Joe Biden played in his comeback. Who needs a ground game?

My guest for today is Aaron Rabinowitz, co-host of the new podcast Embrace the Void. Here’s what the official description of the show says: “Welcome friends, to a podcast for a darker timeline. Maybe the darkest of all timelines. Definitely not one of the good timelines. Maybe it’s always been a dark timeline, maybe the Hadron collider screwed us over. Science may never know. What we do know is that we live in the void. The void, a place where a chittering mass of void crabs can infest a person suit and win the presidency. The void, a place where we're just clever enough to know that climate change is happening, but not quite clever enough to do anything about it. The void seems terrible and cruel, but it loves you, in its own ironic way.” So today we’re going to talk about philosophy, religion, and what it means to embrace the Void.Links:•Embrace the Void: https://voidpod.com •ETV on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/EmbraceTheVoidPod/ •ETV on Twitter: https://twitter.com/ETVPod •Ashton P.

My guest for today is Ashton P. Woods, co-chair of the Black Humanist Alliance. He is an activist who, according to his bio, “openly identifies as gay, atheist, HIV positive, and unapologetically black” According to the Black Humanist Alliance’s mission statement, “While we concern ourselves with confronting expressions of religious hegemony in public policy, the BHA is also devoted to confronting social, economic, and political deprivations that disproportionately impact Black America due to centuries of culturally ingrained prejudices. Using humanism as a life praxis, the BHA seeks to realize the need for a more intersectional and more politicized scope of activism through encouraging social justice competency within secular spaces as well as by engaging in racial, gender, and restorative justice activism.” So today Ashton and I are going to talk about the Black Humanist Alliance and all that they do.Links:•Black Humanist Alliance: http://blackhumanists.org •BHA on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/blackhumanists/ •BHA on Twitter: https://twitter.com/BlackHumanists •Ashton’s website: http://www.ashtonpwoods.com/ •Ashton on Twitter: https://twitter.com/AshtonPWoods •Accomplices Not Allies: http://www.indigenousaction.org/accomplices-not-allies-abolishing-the-ally-industrial-complex/ •The Secular Barbershop: http://www.thesecularbarbershop.com/ •Brainstorm Podcast: http://www.spreaker.com/show/brainstorm-podcast •Atheist Nomads: http://www.atheistnomads.com/ •The Biskeptical Podcast: http://www.spreaker.com/show/the-biskeptical-podcast •Dream Youth: http://dreamyouth.bandcamp.com •Asher Silberman: http://www.ashersilberman.com/ •My Twitter: http://twitter.com/tmamone •Bi Any Means on Twitter: http://twitter.com/bianymeanspod •Bi Any Means on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/bianymeanspodcast •Email: bianymeanspodcast@gmail.com •Listener line: 410-690-3558 •My Patreon page: http://www.patreon.com/tmamone •Bi Any Means Blog: http://freethoughtblogs.com/bianymeans/
