Today marks the 117th anniversary of the Atlanta Race Massacre, so I am replaying my episode from last year with Ann Hill-Bond. I did an Episode 19 WAY back in the beginning of this journey that is titled 1906 Race Riot, but this episode with Ann was so important because we discussed her efforts to change the name, we included the stories of Brownsville and East Point and really got into the details about the financial impact and the role of the Black press. So without further ado, hope you enjoy our conversation: Gammon Street Walking Tour Equitable Dinners 1906 Race Massacre Symposium WABE Documentary Want to support this podcast?

When first reported, it looked like a simple murder-suicide. But it quickly became clear that it was something far more sinister — and the motives of the killer were uglier and more sordid than anyone had thought possible. (Brownsville, Linn County; 1860s) (For text and pictures, see https://offbeatoregon.com/1708d.sidney-barbara-smith-murders-458.html)

Tonight we are talking about another haunting or demon infestation. We are talking about the demon of Brownsville road.
So, in this episode, we go to New York in the 1930's where Lucky Luciano, Meyer Lansky, and Bugsy Siegel took over the Mob in New York City, leading to the creation of a National Crime Syndicate, a Commission of Mob Bosses to settle disputes and for those times when disputes just will not settle, they created a group that came to be known as Murder, Incorporated to take care of those who broke the rules. This group committed hits (a term they created) all over the country and worked out of the back of a candy store in Brooklyn. We discuss this group, their rise and their fall, the indelible mark they made on popular culture. But before we discuss this, it is episode 160 so not only does Krysta have her corner, but we play catching up with Krysta in this special historical true crime episode of the Family Plot Podcast!This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4670465/advertisement

Warning: This episode is graphic. Listener discretion is advised.It is a rite of passage for many American college students, and that is Spring Break. It's a time when students can cut loose, drink too much, and make plenty of bad decisions. Whether Palm Springs or Palm Beach, kids flock to the surf, sun, and sand to have a week full of fun. As parents, we know our children are getting older, and we would probably prefer them not to go, but we have to trust them and know they will be ok but…what if the darkness that lurks out there is more evil than we could ever comprehend and it is just waiting for the right moment to strike.On Wednesday, March 15, 1989, in Brownsville, Texas, two young men came into the station to talk to Chief Investigator George Gavito. The two men tell the investigator their good friend is missing as they explain that they are visiting South Padre Island for spring break. When investigators finally learn what happened to Mark Kilroy, it is indeed the stuff of nightmares.

Our book choices often relate back to current events—whether it's women's rights, LGBTQIA+ equality, BIPOC empowerment, climate change, etc. So, we decided to create Popping Off the Page, special spin-off episodes that highlight the people who are trying to make the world a better place. On this episode, we interview Jennifer Serrano and Veronica Vasquez from JZD, who are breaking barriers as a queer Latina-owned lifestyle brand that builds community and celebrates cultura every day. Founded in 2016 by the wife duo in the border town of Brownsville, Texas, JZD exists to empower and remind Latinas that eres una diosa; poderosa y hermosa!Jen and Vero are proud to be living their American Dream with their “dollar and a dream” hustle mentality, which has catapulted their business and brand to unimaginable heights as two women with immigrant roots. Jen immigrated from Mexico at the age of six and Vero is a first-generation Mexican-American. Jen and Vero started JZD because they needed a reminder of their power. Their first successful product is the now iconic Pink Latina Power Tee. When that t-shirt went viral, they realized that so many in the community felt the same way. At that moment they decided to focus on creating products that made them feel represented and connected to their roots. Under their community first mindset and dedicated leadership, JZD has reached $2 million in sales in under six years, grown a social media community of more than 100,000 followers, launched a collection at Target and shipped to more than 31 countries. All while being independently owned and self-funded.

Leah Goodridge is a tenants' rights attorney who serves on the New York City Planning Commission, where she is the first and only tenants' rights attorney. Born and raised in Brownsville, she lives in Bed-Stuy where, like anyone else in Brooklyn can tell you, the rent is too damn high — and newcomers are consistently pushing historic, legacy families out. On June 21, the city's Rent Guidelines Board voted to increase rents on New York City's rent-stabilized apartments — Goodrige herself has been a member of the rent guidelines board, so we'll talk about that. We'll discuss what the planning commission does and what she sees as her role on that body. And we'll talk about the idea of professionalism: Goodridge wrote a widely circulated essay for the UCLA law review called "Professionalism as a Racial Construct."

While most media covered and spun the news surrounding the end of Title 42, Sara was on the border at Brownsville, Texas, watching the migrants pour into the United States in record numbers. Sara wasn't the only one watching this. Texas Sen. Ted Cruz was part of a congressional delegation observing the crisis the night Title 42 expired.In this conversation, Sen. Cruz tells Sara why he believes President Biden's weakness is directly responsible for the national security and humanitarian crises our nation is facing. He discusses the unconscionable raping and abuse of women and children by cartels, which have greatly expanded their influence and brutality due to the open border. He also details what actions are necessary to confront the cartels in Mexico, but explains that Mexico's president won't agree to them because of his complete lack of respect for Biden.Please visit our great sponsors:Allegiance Goldhttps://protectwithsara.comClick or Call 877-702-7272 tell them Sara sent you and get $5,000 of free silver on a qualifying purchase.

The “woke” agenda continues to infiltrate all parts of society, as the new Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition features a biological male. Pop star Kim Petras was featured on the magazine along with Martha Stewart and Megan Fox. Society will tell you can date a “trans woman” and be straight, but the reality is that it's gay. They'll call you a bigot for thinking that, but it's the truth. The Durham report was released, confirming what we knew all along. The “Russian collusion” investigation was a sham that never should have happened. Will anyone be held responsible for this? Unlikely, but at least the general public has the chance to find out the truth about our corrupt alphabet agencies. Joe Biden says there's no crisis at the border, but also has no plans to visit any time soon. Quite frankly, it's gaslighting, and it's obvious to anyone with eyes that the situation at the border is out of control. Videos of illegal immigrants lined up at the Brownsville airport show exactly that. At the same time, Kamala Harris is joking about having tomatoes thrown at her and warning of open-carry “extremists.” We're joined by Sara Gonzales, BlazeTV host and “woke” agenda expert, to get her take on the Sports Illustrated situation and the release of the Durham report.

What is happening at our southern border right now? Are you hearing the truth from our elected officials or the media? Probably not. Sara is on the border at Brownsville, Texas, and says this is by far the worst she has seen the border in 20 years of reporting there.On Wednesday, Sara watched the unprecedented stream of illegal migrants cross into the United States and shares what it was like in vivid detail. And that followed Tuesday's staggering number of 11,000 illegal border crossings. Sara reveals exactly what she is seeing, from the overwhelmed people and businesses of Brownsville to the vastly outnumbered border patrol agents, Texas authorities, and the National Guard to the confused migrants themselves. And it's about to get much, much worse. But she also tells each of us what we can do to bring about urgently needed change in this country, from our local communities to the federal government.Please visit our great sponsors:Allegiance Goldhttps://protectwithsara.comClick or Call 877-702-7272 tell them Sara sent you and get $5,000 of free silver on a qualifying purchase.

The media is diving headfirst into the "right-wing terrorist" labels following an atrocious shooting in Allen, Texas — but is that what's really going on? Stu Burguiere exposes the preselected leftist narrative and combines it with another misreported Texas incident involving a car crashing into a crowd of people near a migrant center in Brownsville. Then, the Washington Examiner's Anna Giaritelli joins from the hectic border scene in El Paso, Texas, to discuss the brewing migrant crisis as Title 42 nears its end date. And a look at rocker Dee Snider's defense of character following the woke mob attacking him for exceptionally rational opinions.

Today we're talking about the atrocious shooting at an outlet mall in Allen, Texas, that took place Saturday. We go through the horrifying event, which took the lives of eight people, and explain why the conversation surrounding gun violence needs to be addressed in good faith by both parties, yet the Left doesn't seem to want to do that. We also look at the media response to the shooting, which – surprising no one – was filled with reporters very quickly building a narrative. Many liberal outlets almost immediately claimed from an anonymous source that the shooter had white supremacist roots despite not even being white. While the event is still being investigated, those reports seem to be largely unfounded at the moment. We also discuss big upcoming changes in our immigration system that will see a massive wave of migrants at the border. Then, we take a look at a CNN article that attempts to gain sympathy for a woman who was forced to carry her baby to term due to Florida's abortion restrictions. The woman argues it was even more horrifying to give birth and hold her son for 92 hours than it would have been to abort him, but the question remains – horrifying for whom? While we feel heartbreak for this family's tragedy, we reject the faux empathy that CNN seems to be promoting. --- Timecodes: (00:49) Intro (04:00) Shooting in Allen (13:05) Media response (30:05) Immigration changes (41:57) CNN abortion article --- Today's Sponsors: Good Ranchers — get $30 OFF your box today at GoodRanchers.com – make sure to use code 'ALLIE' when you subscribe.
