Episode 216 is the fifth episode covering Joseph Milteer and the radical right wing of America. This episode is the third in a mini-series wander that gives an overview of the civil rights movement as we traverse through the 1950's and early 1960's. In episode 216 we continue with our chronology of events in 1960 and 1961 including the freedom bus rides and more. This series begins to explore more broadly the impact of the civil rights movement and the clash of civilization that began to accelerate in the 1950's. The landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision in Brown versus the Board of Education had a major impact and was a major accelerator after 1954 of change in this country. This period was one of gestation so to speak related to the growing discontent on both sides of this epic struggle and it's an important time frame to understand a we set the plate for the civil rights show down that would come to a new and escalating boil during the Kennedy administration... and contribute to the events leading to the assassination of President Kennedy. An assassination that appears to have included the involvement of hard core right wing characters including in some way Joseph Milteer.Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it, were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very beginning. This real-life story is more fascinating than fiction. No matter whether you are a serious researcher or a casual student, you will enjoy the fact filled narrative and story as we relive one of the most shocking moments in American History. An event that changed the nation and changed the world forever.

In part 1 (episode 214) we portray events up through 1959. In today's episode, we pick up the action in 1960, and we tell the story of the Greensboro sit in which occurred in February of that year. The sit in would resonate with the people as the quintessential non violent protest...spawning sit ins across the country and mostly in the south where segregated lunch counters were still so prevalent.

The tragic young death of rapper Biggie Smalls…The black folklore fable of John Henry. His legacy is addressed in contemporary black writings, including by acclaimed poet Reginald Dwayne Betts and Justin Tinsley. Songs have been written about Bias.

Greetings 9Mind Sacred Sisterhood. Peace, protection, prosperity and most of all wisdom be upon we all and those we love. This Keneka Jenkins freezer murder case has greatly disturbed many here in the US. This tragic muder of this very beautiful and youthful Black girl has caused a multiple [ viral ] social media investigations that is literally unprecedented in the history of high profile tennage deaths here in the US. The question is WHY? So many things about this girls tragic death vexes me to no end. And the endless questions about how a large number of teenagers where allow to drink, smoke weed, be loud, violate over occupanct hotel rules ect... and not draw the attention of Hotel Management & Security. i have sobbed hard over this girls death but one thing I can't say is; "That I know exactly how her Mother, Teresa Martin is feeling." The truth is I don't. Only other women who have lost children due to violence and Murder know what she is feeling and it is a feeling like the late Mother of Emmit Till no Mother wants to know. While watching interviews Teresa Martinhas given, I keep noticing things that leed me to believe this woman is being bullied and GANG STALKED into not getting Justice for her daughter. Those seeking to cover up this girls sarificial murder seem to very well establshied and connected and hired local teenagers to lure her to the Crown Hotel. A Hotel said to be known for it's rampant prostitution and other seedy activity. Keneka was not a patron of this Hotel nor was she aware of its reputation when she accepted to go to a party being thrown there by two female friends that did work there named named Irene & Monifah that online text and videos (allege) them both to have engaged (often) in Hotel SEX parties for MONEY. smdh :-(

With the recent controversy over the Emmit Till lyrics by Lil Wayne, many in the Hip Hop community began to discuss whether or not if Hip-Hop needed to regain its substance again. Should artists be more conscious of their lyrics or is it just a matter of art in its total expression? This conversation started in the 80's with groups like the N.W.A and even went to the supreme court with the 2Live Crew. By having the freedom to say what they want many artists took up the mantel of activists thorough lyricism with groups like P.E. ,Paris,Poor Righteous Teacher and countless others becoming a way to change a generation. Now in current times lyrics cut the boundary of filthy to genius. Today on the Talk of the Town we will talk about the Freedom of Speech in Hip-Hop. Let your voice be heard.
