Welcome to this brand-new episode of Light ‘Em Up!Tell a friend that lives overseas about us!  We are now actively being downloaded in 114 countries.On this investigative, educational and impactful edition of Light ‘Em Up — we expose and tell the truth in a world filled with confusion and misinformation.We delve into the facts not the fiction about: Protecting your Constitutional & Civil Rights and educating you on topics that we're betting you rarely hear or know much about but should know everything about.We drill deep on:—      Pretextual traffic stops (something we've given great attention to here on Light ‘Em Up)—      Section 1983 lawsuits—      and as a case study we examine Whren v U.S. (517 US 806 (1996), a landmark Supreme Court decision that relates directly to how law enforcement interacts with the public today.With a fine-tooth comb, we examine the details as to what exactly is going on in Cleveland, Ohio as the Division of Police, which is currently under DOJ (consent decree) oversight, continues to allegedly cheat, stretch, break and violate the law by intentionally stopping and searching black drivers at much higher rates than white Clevelanders.We explore “When cops become robbers”:  When law enforcement officers use their badge and authority to “game” the citizenry as they violate the spirit and letter of the law.We tell the story of the Tenaha, TX Police Department, whose officers were (allegedly) intentionally using their authority to “shake-down” the good people passing through their city limits.  The lead officer directly involved literally expressed the intention of using “the money that they get from thugs “from a newly created drug interdiction program to pay the town's bills.  A class action lawsuit asserted that their pretextual traffic enforcement scheme was bogus and was designed solely to enhance the city financially and the defendants personally.Especially for you, we have exclusive audio of the Rehnquist High Court as the attorney on behalf of the petitioner (Whren), Lisa Burget Wright, argues their position before the high court on April 17th, 1996.Whren vs U.S. says that “a stop or search that is objectively reasonable is not diminished by the fact that the officer's real reason for making the stop or search has nothing to do with the validating reason”.  (Meaning that it is acceptable for an officer to make up a reason to stop you.)We explore and define a §1983 lawsuit, which provides an individual the right to sue state government employees and others acting under the color of state law for civil rights violations.For your education and empowerment, we explore §242 of Title 18, which makes it a crime for a person acting under color of any law to willfully deprive a person of a right or privilege protected by the Constitution or laws of the U.S., and we provide crucial insights as to what your rights are when you are stopped by law enforcement.  And we delve into pretextual traffic stops: What are they, and how they are used against you.We also offer a “Know Before You Go” pre-travel safety check-list that will help limit your potential exposure and hopefully reduce the likelihood of being pulled over for any legitimate or pretextual moving traffic violations.Finally, we review an in-depth analysis of what more than 17,000 traffic stops in the City of Cleveland has exposed in and among the CDP (Cleveland Division of Police) as it initially appears that they disproportionately pull over Black drivers with much more frequency than white motorists.Follow our sponsors Newsly & Feedspot here:We want to hear from you!

Welcome back to this brand-new, explosive, visionary, investigative edition of Light 'Em Up.We're currently being actively downloaded in 114 countries, globally. Thank you for your unwavering, constant support.Without fear or favor, we shine the antiseptic light of the truth on any topic that we undertake and report on.On this episode we focus on and explore emerging ways of addressing critical issues in the criminal justice system and policing — drilling down on and beginning a focused conversation as to:Rethinking how law enforcement is deployed and all too often traffic stop by police.Public safety has long been treated as the near-exclusive province of law enforcement agencies.Police are tasked with countless challenging and many dangerous duties, including but not limited to:—      Responding to active crime scenes—      911 calls for service (that are made all the more unpredictable by the prevalence of guns on our streets and gun ownership in the U.S.)—      People who are in the grips of a mental health crisis—      Domestic violence situationsThe most common 911 calls include: business checks, disturbances, suspicious persons, and complaints.Simply put, the police are over-tasked and vastly undertrained to deal with a myriad of complex issues that 21st Century Policing encounters and demands — especially those that center around mental health.The risk of being killed while being approached or stopped by law enforcement in the community is 16 times higher for individuals with untreated serious mental illness than for other civilians.For the safety of the public and law enforcement officers equally, we have to begin to re-think, re-examine and re-engineer these concepts, whether it be the biased enforcement of traffic laws by police which drive racial disparities in the criminal justice system or topics like we've covered in the past such as “DWB” or Driving While Black in America.—      Police in the U.S. conduct more than 20 million traffic stops per year—      Some 42% of African Americans say that police have stopped them just because of their race—      59% of the U.S. public believes that this practice of racial profiling is widespread—      81% disapprove of it — or at least express the concept that they doCivilian first responders dedicated to traffic and road safety can better serve communities by resolving traffic and safety issues without the potential for punitive law enforcement action.Racial profiling is a significant policing and social problem.  We all witnessed how fast the police incident with Miami Dolphins star wide receiver Tyreek Hill escalated quickly from the body worn camera of the officer on scene.To mitigate the risk of harm to both the police and the public, many municipalities have tasked unarmed, non-law enforcement responders to address nonviolent social and medical issues such as mental health crises or have narrowed the scope of police discretion and duties in traffic enforcement.How many times have we seen in the past where a citizen is pulled over for a minor traffic infraction and it has escalated into a deadly encounter?—      An expired registration—      A crack in a windshield—      LitteringIt happens every day, don't be fooled!Click here to see the list of the top jurisdictions that have first responder programs across the U.S.Tune in for ALL the explosive details and follow our sponsors Newsly & Feedspot.We want to hear from you!

131 Sommer Spiele Schatzis 5 - Driving While Black: Der Titel der neuen Folge der “Sommer Spiele Schatzis” ist ein bitterer Scherz: Weil in den USA bei Polizei-Verkehrskontrollen vermehrt Persons of Color kontrolliert und nicht selten auch drangsaliert werden, sprechen Betroffene vom fiktiven Tatbestand des "Driving While Black" als Grund für Schikane und Strafe. In den zwei Spielen, die David Riegler und Rainer Sigl zu diesem Themenkomplex diesmal mitgebracht haben, sind auch Schwarze Protagonisten am Lenkrad: Sowohl in "GTA: San Andreas" als auch in "Mafia III" geht es grundlegend betrachtet in riesigen Open Worlds um Rassismus, Gewalt, Politik, Musik und Autofahren in den USA - nur dass die beiden Spiele in entscheidenden Details unterschiedlicher nicht sein könnten. Ein Sommer-Game-Podcast über zwei Spiele zu gleich mehreren heiklen Themen. (Folge #131) Sendungshinweis: FM4 Game Podcast. 1.August 2024, 0-1 Uhr.

I'm ready to take care of this issue that has plagued our community for two weeks, Mano a Maneatero. Then, we give another Trumpdate, talk about a potentially dangerous madman in Omaha (and the woman who seems to be standing by him), the latest "Driving While Black" assertion, and more.

This week we continue our fascinating conversation with our friend, Dave Williams on the topic of "Driving While Black". We discuss questions like is racism inherent in people? Are members of the military more apt to become police officers? Along the way, Dave tells us about the unique experience he had when he was befriended by a KKK member and how that was even possible. We finish up with some of our own ideas for improving the relationship between the police and their communities. Enjoy!

Today's topic is much more serious than normal. Today we talk with our friend, David Williams about what it's like to drive when you're a black man. By Dave's estimation, he's been pulled over somewhere between 80 and 100 times and he talks to us about some of the experiences he's had. He walks us through a few of his more memorable incidents, including his thought process and his perspective of the accounts which range from confusing to harrowing. This was a very eye-opening conversation for us and depending on your own experiences, it might be for you as well! Enjoy!

Such an incredible interview with Paul Lambert! Paul Lambert is an Entertainment Executive and Producer with a strong Digital Marketing background. He has been quoted as saying, "I love to be in positions that require a consensus and team effort to move things forward. One of my greatest thrills is to find ways to bring out the best in others. Most companies and entertainment projects have a lot of moving parts and this ability is critical to their ultimate success”. Paul is a graduate of Moody Bible Institute (Theology major) and then continued his education at Wheaton College (economics). He was a Harvard Prize book Award winner, recipient of a Bank of America Scholarship in the field of fine arts. While a young marketing executive, Paul helped Bob Pitman (MTV) and Bob Geremia (ESPN) experiment and develop the appeal of their pioneering brands for traditional Ad agency business. At the time, these unique networks were unorganized, spontaneous, and enthusiastic but not always the best fit for big traditional Ad Agencies. Paul went on to be President of a NY Advertising Agency for 12 years before turning to entrepreneurial projects and full time Producing. Paul is part pioneer and part enthusiast in everything he does. He was a member of the executive team who closed the first US automotive import deal with China, he convinced both Betty White and Shirley Jones to do regional commercials (unheard of with their status) while in the advertising business, completed a deal with Sherry Lansing (Paramount Pictures) that gave him the rights to adapt the movie "The First Wives Club" as a Musical and worked with Hollywood producing “royalty” -- Suzanne de Passe —in developing a new project, "Driving While Black in Beverly Hills". Mr Lambert has produced theatrical projects in Los Angeles, NY, San Diego, Chicago, Toronto, and Melbourne, Australia. He is currently the lead producer of the NEW Four Tops Musical — "I'll Be There" - with fellow Producers, Duke Fakir (original Four Tops member), and Michael Swanson, Sr VP NBC / Universal Television. He also has attracted Eddie and Brian Holland (of the legendary Motown composing team Holland Dozier Holland) and HB Barnum (Aretha Franklin's music supervisor for 30 years) as the project's arranger and orchestrator; and, Tim Sabean as a key executive in the shows marketing, audience platform development, and IP expansion. "I'll Be There" is slated for an opening in the Fall of 2024. Paul's full-time focus is now creating and producing "branded" entertainment that has both entertainment value and social significance.

Dr. Gretchen Sorin - Distinguished professor and director of the Cooperstown Graduate Program of the State University of New York. The acclaimed historian joins Tavis for a conversation on the history of African Americans driving on the road and explains how the automobile fundamentally changed African American life by liberating African Americans to move around the country while still navigating segregation and violence – as outlined in her book “Driving While Black.”

In this podcast recording Dr. Sonya Whitaker shares her personal experience with being stopped unjustifiably by a police officer while on vacation with her family. She shares details related to what the officer referred to as a "judgment call," and offers her informed opinion regarding how "judgement calls" impact the work educators and others.

I drive while black all the time. That being said this episode is meant to stimulate conversation about a very misleading subject matter. Everyone talks about having a tough conversation. Sometimes the toughest part is a different opinion. Listen, learn, and share. The topic is not as black and white as you might believe. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

It is well known that cars changed America. But what about Black America? With America's long history of controlling Black mobility, cars meant many new freedoms for Black people. Yet, as they hit the roads through new places, new dangers lurked in the unknown. Both the dangers and the opportunities are the topic of this episode. My guest is Dr. Gretchen Sorin, author of Driving While Black: African American Travel and the Road to Civil Rights. On one hand, cars allowed Black people to avoid segregated buses and trains. And, large cars allowed them to pack enough supplies not to risk stopping in areas they didn't know. Yet, segregation and prejudice followed them on the road. Many White towns did not welcome Black travelers, even those who needed medical attention because of an accident. Out of this came The Negro Motorist Green Book and the wide variety of Black businesses for Black travelers that filled its pages. Let's take a drive!

[This episode was originally released on October 31st, 2019. We're re-releasing it as an end-of-summer extra for new listeners and will be back with new episodes in September.] For a century, the automobile has been sold to Americans as the ultimate freedom machine. In her groundbreaking new book, “Policing the Open Road,” historian and legal scholar Sarah Seo explodes that myth. Seo shows how modern policing evolved in lockstep with the development of the car. And that rather than giving Americans greater freedom, the massive body of traffic law required to facilitate mass motoring helped to establish a kind of automotive police state. Is a car a private, personal space deserving Fourth Amendment protection from “unreasonable searches and seizures?” Or is a car something else entirely? It's a question that courts have struggled with for decades, ultimately leaving it up to the police to use their own discretion, often with horrifying results, especially for minorities. In this revelatory conversation with TWOC co-host Aaron Naparstek, Seo offers an entirely new way of looking at the impact of the automobile on American life, law and culture.

Historian Gretchen Sorin has written a fascinating new book, “Driving While Black: African American Travel and the Road to Civil Rights,” that dives into the role the car played in the 20th-century African American experience. Sorin talked with Sarah about how in the Jim Crow era, when riding public transportation was often humiliating and downright dangerous for black Americans, the automobile provided a way for black families to get around with safety and dignity. She also explains how cars played an instrumental role in building the civil rights movement, and why white etiquette expert Emily Post wasn't so comfortable with the rising popularity of the automobile.
