In this episode of BTR News w/ Scotty Reid, we explore how seemingly harmless acts like creating, sharing, and promoting media that vaguely "thanks the troops" contribute to the normalization of militarism in American culture.

From authoritarian policies to militarism and scapegoating, both Democratic and Republican administrations have employed strategies that align with fascist principles. The discussion highlights how the DNC and RNC often converge, particularly on foreign policy, advancing an agenda rooted in suppression, expansionism, and corporatism. Please tune in for a critical analysis of America's political landscape and its implications for democracy.

In this episode of Black Talk Radio News w/ Scotty Reid, we're taking a deep dive into Vice President Kamala Harris' record on criminal justice reform and prison labor.

We'll examine how these pro-labor arguments shaped California's justice system, contrasting her past silence on criminal justice reform. Support Black Talk Media!

In this episode of Black Talk Radio News, we tackle the urgent question of reparations for African American descendants of American slavery, Jim Crow, and the ongoing systemic harm impacting Black communities.

The discussion extends beyond financial restitution, considering innovative approaches like federal and property tax exemptions as alternative forms of reparations. Join us for a critical examination of what comprehensive reparative justice could look like for African Americans today. Support Black Talk Media!

Tonight's main topics will cover the term “moral injury” being associated with military veterans that encompass symptoms like feelings of “betrayal, anger, shame and guilt” and it can lead to how this might play a significant role in the high suicide rate among veterans who fall victim to societal alienation. Often they are written off as suffering from the broad term PTSD associated with those who experienced combat during warfare but not all vets who suffer moral injuries have to do with seeing blood and guts on a battlefield or being forced to partake or witness the slaughter of civilians. Now think about the moral injury that will be caused to US service members who don't want to go fight and die for a fascist right-wing government turned dictatorship in Western Ukraine whose so-called President recently stated to the press that Russia wants to invade the Baltic NATO states and then the US will have to send their sons and daughters to fight and die. Russia has sought peace with Ukraine with the latest official meeting being the Minsk Accords but Zelensky who ran as a pro-peace candidate has been seduced or coerced into adopting the agenda of the far-right fascist political elements that include neo-Nazis who have deified the Nazi WWII collaborator Stepan Bandera. *BTR News is a media project of the Black Talk Media Project.

Reports are true that Mississippi Republican RHINOS are attempting to disenfranchise voters with a bill that will create a district where judges in the criminal justice system will not be elected but become political appointees. Mediaite, a blue check mark media company that gives “news” and “opinions” about the media was caught on social media pushing disinformation about the US government not funding neo-Nazi elements in Ukraine and no other so-called fact-checking organization fact-checked them when it is a well-documented fact that they were and still is. The actor and former rapper Ice T aka Tracy Lauren Marrow took a jab at today's generation of rappers calling them "soft" and "goofy". Some hip-hop old heads don't agree one hundred percent.

What is culture and when it comes to "Black" people, what is "our" culture and why do some African Americans reject the culture of their direct ancestors here in the USA? And why do some of us insist on defending the oxymoronic term "Woman King"? Let's define what we are talking about as "our" culture. "Culture is an umbrella term that encompasses the social behavior, institutions, and norms found in human societies, as well as the knowledge, beliefs, arts, laws, customs, capabilities, and habits of the individuals in these groups.[1] Culture is often originated from or attributed to a specific region or location. Humans acquire culture through the learning processes of enculturation and socialization, which is shown by the diversity of cultures across societies." "Psychology is the scientific study of mind and behavior. Psychology includes the study of conscious and unconscious phenomena, including feelings and thoughts. It is an academic discipline of immense scope, crossing the boundaries between the natural and social sciences." *BTR News is a media project of the Black Talk Media Project.
