  [X] SB – Doug Emhoff on Kamala doing what she does You can choose to worry, or you can know that there is a loving, living God who knows what's best for America and the world. Over the last couple of days, I've done more than reveal news about the election. I've provided insights. You realize that we win in the end. There will be trials and tribulations, wars and rumors of wars. This has been prophesized by the Bible, and it is a fact. We were told that we lies would become the truth and the truth a lie. That we would be persecuted for our faith. Are these things happening? Yes. But we win in the end. Leftists want a Godless country, and they want to rock our faith. For many, they've accomplished this. But for people who believe that good conquers evil, we don't worry. Whatever the outcome of tonight is, and I honestly believe it will go our way, we mustn't fret. God has a purpose for you and this nation, and we will prevail. Trump has been through the ringer and it reminds me of a testimony of an African pastor, a testimony that I heard recently. The gentleman is from Zambia  Harris as a VP: A look back at Biden-Harris Today America gets its freedom back. Few would argue that Americans as a whole have endured 4 of the worst years in our history. Do you think people can or will ignore this? Inside the Beltway and on fake news media, they can pretend thing are going well. But rank and file America sees it differently. I will touch on all of these things individually, but let's just look at the list:- Massive inflation- Wars we should never have gotten involved in- Spending like there is no tomorrow. $1 trillion gets added to the debt every quarter.- An INVASION, sponsored by Biden-Harris, that is costing billions more, and ruining lives…- Crime: remember, they got the FBI to LIE to us.- Lies about everything: # of illegals, vaccines efficacy, inflation numbers, employment numbers, and much moreThis has been without a doubt the most corrupt administration in our history. And their corruption is only surpassed by their incompetence. This all ends in a few days. Check out Part II of this Pep Talk     This is Part II of the pep rally. Soon we will have much to celebrate, though many Conservatives fear the outcome of the election. Thus, I am reminding America of what's about to happen. Cheating I know you're concerned about Democrats https://apnews.com/article/trump-cheating-fraud-lies-52832138394282b8a3355b45c0b913a9. But cheating has been factored into my feelings of euphoria. As I said in https://theblacksphere.net/2024/11/pre-election-pep-talk-from-kevin-jackson-part-i/, Democrats will cheat in elections; that's what they do. Because Democrats can't win on ideas, they must cheat and manipulate. They do this to make believe that they are right, because they are too egotistical or stupid to admit they are wrong. Look at what they did in 2020, cheating Trump out of his rightful term for a man nobody takes seriously 4 years later. But therein lies the problem. America has seen this act before. No China virus to save the day. And Trump's ground-game and team is much more sophisticated. Further, many people formerly willing to cheat won't do do. So the cabal knows for fact that it can't cheat Harris into office. People like Jamie Raskin have been appearing on network TV sounding the alarm bell about "Trump cheating".  Raskin's appearance signal that Democrats know the cheating won't work on their end. So he's warning America that if Trump wins, the he obviously cheated. Raskin is indicating that Democrats will have a reason for their "insurrection", as Trump will have won by cheating. Ergo, there will be no “peaceful transition of power”. Democrats are justifying their disbelief of election results in advance. And what's most ironic about this? They KNOW they are still cheating massively.  More on the pastor [X] SB – Fetterman on Dems connecting with PA Same warning signs. Nothing new here. Trump has a connection with PA voters    [X] SB – Woody Johnson owner of Jets   People are proud to break ranks and say their voting for Trump. They're not hiding it. Run the country like a business   There are many POWERFUL people and organizations who want Trump to win. Don't be fooled by the cabal. While it is made up of very wealthy people, who manipulation governments for their fortunes, its members still need the actual ingenuity of other titans of industry as part of their portfolios. And that's why it's good that American conservatives have Elon Musk https://theblacksphere.net/2023/12/bidenomics-musk-buy-wapo/. I suspect that well over half of America's billionaires want Trump as president. These people whisper in the ear of the cabal who must listen. Chamath Palihapitiya might have been one of the first https://theblacksphere.net/2023/12/the-real-reason-why-chris-cuomo-may-vote-for-trump/ to Trump. "Every other president found a way to, frankly, make our situation a little bit worse, specifically around wars. He did not do that. And that is a huge accomplishment that I think needs to be acknowledged," Palihapitiya said. The co-host then described himself as a "Democrat" now "left homeless" and "definitely in the center but probably leaning increasingly right." Recently, Tim Cook of Apple contacted President Trump to intervene on his behalf in his company dealings with Ireland. And even more recently, Jeff Bezos of Amazon fame took The Washington Post's finger off the scale, and https://theblacksphere.net/2024/10/jeff-bezos-jointed-elon-musk-on-the-trump-train/ the paper from endorsing Kamala Harris. Zuckerberg, while not exactly endorsing Trump has certainly done a few public mea culpa on how Facebook manipulated the 2020 election through https://theblacksphere.net/2022/09/facebook-continues-to-reject-covid-facts/. This cycle he has certainly taken a far less active role in election interference than he has in the past. But aside from America's wealthiest citizens, some unions have also broken away from the Democrats. More than a couple of unions refused to endorse Kamala Harris as well. The Teamsters https://theblacksphere.net/2024/10/trumps-latest-economic-triumph-has-democrats-panicked/ that 60 percent of its membership favored Trump, while the Steamfitters went further, reporting 70 percent for Trump: Wow. The day after the Teamsters released their survey results showing 60% support among their members for Trump, a Steamfitters Union member announces that 70% of his members support Trump. Trump has UNPRECEDENTED support with blue collar workers.https://t.co/aHqteibKgo — johnny maga (@_johnnymaga) https://twitter.com/_johnnymaga/status/1836758130069241975?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw The Black Vote And while all those other factors weigh in the decision of how much the cabal can cheat, the biggest factor remains the Black vote. And the Black vote moving away from Democrats is no longer a secret. Despite the media doing all that it could to paint Trump as a racist and Harris as Black, the narrative failed. The Black vote decide this election, and I predict as much as 30 percent will go to President Trump. That much of a shift represents a death knell for Democrats. Understand the ramifications the loss of the Black vote does for Democrats. Democrats use Blacks to anger the masses. That anger is how Democrats perpetuated the lie of J6. So the loss of the Black votes inserts a huge wrinkle in the fabric of the cabal. Because a Trump win won't trigger Blacks to anger, but instead a Trump loss will. If Trump loses, America will see a Black revolt bigger than that of Michael Brown Jr's and George Floyd's deaths combined. And for those who say that the majority of Blacks remain Democrats, that's true. But the most boisterous Blacks will be those who left the Democratic Party and see Trump as their only hope. These are the Blacks willing to disrupt. Exit polling will validate what I already stated about the Black vote. Trump the Felon and Biden the Beleaguered Today, Leftists admit that our nation is being led by a WILD MAN. A man with a malfunctioning brain represents us to the world! And Democrats knew, but didn't care. Trump cares and America finally recognizes the difference between the two parties. So now we find ourselves in a place Democrats thought we would never see: Trump back in the driver's seat.   Weren't his indictments and convictions supposed to do him in? That strategy reminds me of 2016 when Democrats maneuvered to make Trump the Republican nominee. They felt he was the easiest to beat. Then, they got snake bit. The same is true now. They maneuvered to make Trump a chump. A felon. A sex offender who women would hate. Oh how the mighty have fallen. Today, people PROUDLY vote for the felon. Remember all the times we were told that Trump would be arrested? That he wouldn't be able to campaign, he would so tied up in court. They didn't even hide their strategy, they were so cocky about it. Where are we now?!! There was a time when you likely wondered if we would get here. Trump's Team vs Harris' Team As you consider the choices people will make, think at the subliminal level. Ask yourself who America most likely prefers, Vance or Walz? Do you remember this debate? Do I need to remind you of how badly Walz did? Now ask the question again, expect the choices are Musk or Cuban? What about Tulsi Gabbard versus Liz Cheney?

Today's special guest is Michael Brown Sr., President of the Chosen for Change foundation and father of Michael Brown Jr,, who was murdered in Ferguson Ms. by law enforcement. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In a deeply moving episode of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast, Jane Mantey, Director of Narrative and Cultural Strategies for Race Forward, connected with Michael Brown Sr. and Cal Brown, parents of Michael Brown Jr. Their heartfelt story and unwavering advocacy illuminate the enduring impact of their son's tragic death in a police encounter a decade ago–an event that ignited a powerful national movement and continues to shape the racial justice landscape today.Michael Sr. and Cal share their journey since the heartbreaking loss of their son on August 9, 2014. Their story reveals not only their profound pain and grief but also their relentless pursuit of justice and healing through their organization, Chosen for Change. This initiative empowers families through holistic grief counseling and outreach programs, aiming to build leadership and self-determination.Michael Sr. emphasized the critical need to support grieving families, drawing from his own experiences of inadequate support during his time of grief. He noted, "Grieving families are different. The first thing to go away is trust." Building trust and treating these families with respect and dignity is central to their approach.Cal elaborated on the significance of their various programs, such as Cookies and Convo, Chosen Fathers, and Mothers of an Angel. These initiatives offer inclusive grief support, helping families adjust to a''new normal' and providing the tools needed to heal and reinvent themselves. One notable program, 1st 48 Responders, ensures immediate support for families following a loss. "Despite what we are going through, we stand ten toes down in the work that we do," Cal stated, underscoring their community-driven efforts as a form of justice for their son and others.As they mark the 10-year commemoration of Michael Brown Jr., Michael Sr. reflected on the importance of remembering and humanizing his son. Their ongoing fight against police violence and systemic racism is highlighted by the recent loss of another young person to police brutality in their community. "We have served more than 1,700 families," Cal pointed out, emphasizing the continuing need for their essential work.Chosen for Change will participate in Race Forward's Cultural Week of Action on Race and Democracy from September 27th to October 5th. This new initiative harnesses art, culture, and creativity to advance dialogues and spark collective action for a multiracial democracy. During the event, *Chosen for Change* will unveil "As I See You," an art exhibit created through Michael Sr. and Cal's eyes in collaboration with Artivist STL, offering an intimate portrayal of Michael Brown Jr.'s life.In closing, Cal and Michael Sr. call for unity and urged listeners to support grieving families authentically. "If you do not have a voice, do not let anybody speak for you or your loved one until you find your voice," Cal advised. Their powerful testament to resilience and community strength continues to inspire and drive the ongoing fight for justice and equity. Resources  Chosen For Change Organizationhttps://www.chosenforchange.org/ The Michael Brown Foundationhttps://www.michaelbrownfoundation.org/‘I will never stop fighting': Michael Brown Jr.'s family turns pain into purpose” (via St. Louis Public Radio) https://bit.ly/3YYEHnw Race Forward and Americans for the Arts unveil the Anchor Projects for the Inaugural Cultural Week of Actionhttps://bit.ly/474DqgHPhotos: Family of Michael Brown Jr. marches on Ferguson 10 years later (via The Picture Show, NPR)https://bit.ly/3Mq9WjO About Race Forward:  Race Forward catalyzes movement building for racial justice.

The C.O.W.S. Neutralizing Workplace Racism 08/16/24. The 2024 Olympic Games just concluded, and despite the Australian break-dancing sensation and the unparalleled domination of Simone "GOAT" Biles, there were a number of reports about numerous athletes - even in the US, working side jobs and posting semi-nude photos of themselves to fund their Olympic dreams. Hip-hop great Flavor Flav heard the tales of financial woe and sponsored the Women's Water Polo squad, and NPR discussed how some athletes who score a medal are required to pay hefty taxes on their winnings. Getting a gold might not be mean "easy living" for the rest of your days. We'll also discuss black entrepreneurs in Ferguson, Missouri. It's been a decade since Michael Brown Jr. was killed and left in the street, many businesses are still struggling to rebuild and repair following the months of tumult after Brown's murder. We also hear from a female caller and attempted mother whose White colleagued made a sexually suggestive remark and followed behind her when she left the premises for the day. He's allegedly been keeping tabs on her car's location in the company lot. All of this behavior is highly suspicious, dangerous, and should warrant serious concern. #TheCOWS15Years #TheGiftOfFear INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#

Today marks one decade since 18-year-old Michael Brown Jr. was killed in Ferguson, Missouri. Brown's death at the hands of a white law enforcement officer ignited social unrest worldwide and led countless activists to demand an end to police violence.Former President Donald Trump held his first news conference since Vice President Harris announced Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate. True to Trump fashion, the hour-long conference was jam-packed with intentional mispronunciations of "Kamala," attacks on VP Harris's intelligence, incessant rambling, and lie after lie.And in headlines: VP Harris addresses the United Auto Workers in Detroit, ABC presidential debate set for September 10, continued fighting in Russia following Ukraine's surprise offensive attack, and Team USA's Noah Lyles wins a bronze despite COVID.Show Notes:Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday   

A decade ago Ferguson was thrust into the spotlight after a white police officer killed Michael Brown Jr. His death sparked months-long demonstrations and protests that fueled change.

It's been nearly 10 years since Michael Brown Jr. was shot and killed by a Ferguson police officer. His father Michael Brown Sr, stepmom Cal Brown, and their kids have been working everyday since then to heal. They launched the Michael Brown Sr. Chosen For Change Organization to turn their pain into purpose.

Michael Brown Jr. has become a symbol and a gateway for people to talk about racial injustice and policing. St. Louis Public Radio's podcast "We Live Here" returns for a special season 10 years after Brown's killing. In this episode, we explore how people view Brown's legacy, what young adults today know about his story and how his memory has shaped new conversations about race and justice.

To honor that history and reflect on where St. Louis is today, St. Louis Public Radio is bringing back the podcast “We Live Here” for a special season that reflects on the truths that Ferguson exposed, why there still is an open wound a decade later and how community members continue to push for a better future. “We Live Here” host Chad Davis talks with Elaine Cha about upcoming episodes which drop weekly starting Aug. 1.

Almost 10 years after the police shooting of Michael Brown Jr., questions remain around police reform at the federal and local levels. Civil rights attorney Bakari Sellers says national police reform is dead, and people must vote to start over. St. Louis Public Radio's Andrea Henderson recently spoke with Sellers while he was in town promoting his new book on national politics about ways to implement police reform.

One year after being sworn in as chief of the Ferguson Police Department, Troy Doyle reflects on what it takes to promote a cultural shift among officers and discusses his efforts to recast a department thrust into national and global spotlight after Michael Brown Jr.'s killing by a Ferguson police officer nearly 10 years ago.

On August 9, 2014, the killing of Michael Brown, Jr. by Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson saw the birth of a social movement. A new Webster University exhibition titled, “Ferguson and Beyond: Artistic Responses to a Decade of Social Upheaval 2014-2024,” features art created as a means to process Brown's death and bring about healing.

Join host Carol Daniel in her discussion with Rev. Starsky Wilson to reflect on the #Ferguson uprising ten years later. St. John's Church (The Beloved Community) where Wilson was pastor, became a gathering place for the peaceful protests that followed the police-involved shooting death of Michael Brown Jr. in 2014. Daniel and Wilson discuss how his work during that time has led him to his current focus on child wellbeing at the Children's Defense Fund (Linked: https://cdfca.org/staff/rev-dr-starsky-wilson/).   What did you think about this conversation?

Portia Burch is a Black queer activist and Omaha native with a specific focus on anti-racism work and abolition. Portia was activated by the murder of Michael Brown Jr. and the subsequent protests and riots in Ferguson, MO. As consciousness shifts towards reckoning with racism and white supremacy in the world, Portia is working to create spaces that are just and equitable as a way to build communities that are focused on healing and growing. She does this by curating and nurturing spaces to unlearn and decolonize behaviors that have upheld racism and white supremacy culture. Her priority is and will always be the uplifting of Black people, Indigenous people, and other people of the global majority. She is intentional in her work so that people working to be active anti-racists and social justice accomplices understand that by making the groups they advocate for their priority, the decolonization becomes a natural act and creates effective change.What You Will Hear:The motivation for and importance of podcast episode “Let's Heal Together: Make the Most Marginalized Voices the Ones Most Heard”The unaddressed white supremacy in the LGBTQ+ communityWhy black women, cisgendered, lesbian, hetero, and trans are still the most disrespected and silenced womenHow Portia deals with moments of hopelessnessSurviving suicide attempts.

You might internalize it, but are you directly harmed by it? No, because nobody knows that you're queer. For me, if I wanted to, I could tuck my queer away, but I'm black all day long.”“Twitter is the place where critical and cognitive thinking goes to die.”“White women need to know that they still benefit from the patriarchy because the men that are in office, even though they're making laws that are detrimental to all white women, it's gonna hit them last.

In Berkeley Talks episode 178, Rashad Arman Timmons, a fellow at UC Berkeley's Black Studies Collaboratory, joins in conversation with the family of Michael Brown Jr., whose 2014 killing by police in Ferguson, Missouri, ignited a wave of protests across the country.During the March 8, 2023, discussion, Brown's father, Michael Brown Sr., his stepmother, Cal Brown, and Timmons consider the enduring significance of Ferguson in the nation's racial landscape and ponder Black grief as a resource for social transformation.“A note on grief,” begins Timmons. “We grieve because we care. We grieve because we love. And we grieve because we remember. I feel a responsibility to say this, to acknowledge grief for what it truly is: an ethical act of care, a radical act of love and a persistent triumph of memory.“When we grieve the Black dead and dying, we enact an urgent care for them. We profess a vigilant love over them and nurture a commitment to remember them. Christina Sharpe in her beautiful theorizing calls the unison of these practices ‘wake work.' ‘Wake work,' she writes, "describes how we attend to physical, social and figurative death, and also to the largeness that is Black life, or Black life insisted from death. Wake work describes how we imagine, defend and care for Black lives always already threatened, in our present or the future, that chattel slavery made possible.”Read more about the event and learn more about the Black Studies Collaboratory.Listen to the episode and read the transcript on Berkeley News (news.berkeley.edu).Music by Blue Dot Sessions.

Today I get to share with you my powerful conversation with the amazing Ally Henny. Ally is an author, a speaker, a minister, an advocate, and the vice president of The Witness, a Black Christian Collective which is an organization committed to encouraging, engaging, and empowering Black Christians toward liberation from racism. This week, Ally released her book I Won't Shut Up: Finding Your Voice When the World Tries to Silence You which one reviewer poignantly and perfectly called “An unvarnished perspective on racism that calls Black women to find their voice.” During our conversation today, Ally is going to share some of the insights from her incredible book as well as some of her experiences as a Black Christian woman who for many, many years felt constantly silenced but perpetually on display for public opinion. She shares how it feels for her to never be “off” because her responses in conversations, even her facial expressions are constantly being evaluated and judged. Or what it feels like to consistently be perceived as a potential threat or as someone who needs to be handled or managed. She unpacks topics such as society's expectation of women being the burden bearers, the helper, and the nurturers in American society, but how that uniquely plays out for many Black women and its roots in systemic harm. Ultimately, Ally shares a glimpse into the culmination of events that led to her finding what she calls her “holy hell no,” the sacred boundary that rose up in her and said I do not deserve to be treated this way and that racism does not have to be an accepted fact of life. Her book moved me so deeply and continued opening my eyes to experiences I've lived in ignorance of, and this conversation continues to remind me about the beauty and the power of not staying silent in the face of injustice and the heart of God to let ALL of our lights shine before men. This conversation goes so deep and wide, that this is actually part one of two episodes, and I can't wait to listen and learn right along with you. Remember friend, no matter where you are in your journey, you matter and your story matters.

More than ten years ago, Trayvon Martin, an unarmed Black teen, was fatally shot in a gated neighborhood in Florida while on his way back to their home from a local convenience store. Martin's death -- and his shooter's acquittal -- would go on to spark a new generation of protests and global attention on police and citizen violence against Black people. In the wake of this renewed energy around anti-Black racism, a coalition of racial justice organizations like The Black Lives Matter Network, Dream Defenders, and Black Youth Project sprouted all over the country, signaling a new era of Black organizing. These groups helped lay down the groundwork for the massive and enduring protests that erupted in Ferguson, Mo., in the days and months after Michael Brown Jr., an unarmed Black teenager, was killed by a white police officer on August 9, 2014. Within this larger movement for Black lives, the fathers of countless slain Black boys rose up to lead the cause. On this episode of Into America, host Trymaine Lee speaks with Tracy Martin, Trayvon Martin's dad, along with Michael Brown Sr., and Jacob Blake Sr. about the weight of Black fatherhood amid a global fight for Black life.For a transcript, please visit msnbc.com/intoamerica. Follow and share the show on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, using the handle @intoamericapod.Thoughts?

In this week's episode of Art of Power, host Aarti Shahani sits down with Congresswoman Cori Bush (D-Mo.), a former Black Lives Matter activist who lost two elections before finally winning Missouri's 1st congressional seat in 2020. Rep. Bush tells Shahani about her early exposure to politics (12:36), the adversities she endured in her early life — including eviction, homelessness and rape (19:12), the 2014 shooting death of Michael Brown Jr. in Ferguson that pushed her to seek public office (4:00), and why she didn't quit after two lopsided electoral defeats (32:45).

Crafting Positive Purpose and Social Transformation through Art and Pain “When things happening in the world seem so terrible and dark, it's so easy to get stuck in all the negative,” he says. “But I try to do whatever I can to help people out of that. I want my music to be the light.” That's one of this episode's guest talking about not only a Grammy award winning career which has sold millions of albums globally but also his commitment to hope, love and beauty in the form of an Oscar potential “Ferguson Rises” and its director.    Perhaps, on a spiritual plane, these two artists - the director and singer - understand the artform of their crafts where community, curation of the human spirit and creative expression are one.  Ferguson Rises explores the depths of the aftermath and protests following Michael Brown Jr.'s killing through a wide range of community members.From black and white residents to police officers, to business owners and those who chose to say "enough is enough" by taking to the streets for a record 400-plus days straight, Ferguson Rises dives into the heartland of America and an epicenter of race, violence and our future. This varied chorus of perspectives is interwoven with an intimate portrayal of a Black father's grief and resilience that bears witness to the human capacity to find purpose within pain. Here's to Life is proud to support Ferguson Rises Academy Award's Oscar campaign - Here's to Life welcomes Tribeca Film Festival's Audience's favorite auteur Mobolaji Olambiwonnu & Grammy Award Winning artist singer Aloe Blacc"I think also, we want to by Michael Brown Senior's example, we want to offer a young black man a space to understand, you can be masculine.   You can be a man.  But you can also have feelings as well.    You don't have to be robbed of the three-dimensional space of your humanity... we can make it to the other side."  —  Mobolaji Olambiwonnu“When I signed a major-label contract, I recognized the power of having a larger audience, and I promised myself that I'd use my voice for social change.”   —  Aloe Blacc"Before George Floyd, before Breonna Taylor, before America knew about Black Lives Matter, there was Michael Brown, Jr. On August 9th, 2014, in Ferguson Missouri, Darren Wilson, a white officer, fatally shot an unarmed Brown, and in the days that followed protest, anger, frustration and fear took over the city and its community. Six years later, a new story emerges, one filled with hope, love and beauty. Through interviews from community members, including Dorian Johnson, who was with him that day, and Michael Brown's father, this documentary illuminates the stories from within the city since that time, including the dreams and desires of its citizens to move beyond the limited and all-too-common narratives of racism and division in the media. The film reveals the humanity within the people of Ferguson, who represent all of us, and the communities in which we live." — Deborah RudolphCREDITS:Guest:  Ferguson Rises - Auteur Mobolaji Olambiwonnu & Aloe BlaccHost and Producer:  Tori ReidExecutive Producer:  Patrick A.

Michael Brown Jr.'s death in Ferguson, Missouri is considered to be the founding moment of the modern Black Lives Matter movement. But behind the protests and calls for change in response to ongoing police brutality, there are still grieving families to whom closure is no option. A new PBS documentary, "Ferguson Rises," follows the life of Michael Brown Sr. in the aftermath of his son's death in 2014, and his effort to seek justice for the killing. Director Mobolaji Olambiwonnu and Michael Brown Sr. himself speak to us about the film, which airs on PBS on November 8.

Brian Barr of Guilderland was one of five people recently recognized as a Community Bridge Builder at the inaugural awards ceremony held by ALERT, the Albany Law Enforcement Resolution Team.The not-for-profit was founded by Pastor David Traynham in 2015 after Michael Brown Jr., a Black man, was shot by a white police officer in Ferguson, Missouri. Traynham felt it was just a matter of time before a similar incident would happen in Albany and he wanted to bring law enforcement together with the community to have one city united.Trynham and his wife, Brenda, founded the New Horizons Church in Albany.“The key is relationship,” says Barr in the week's podcast.ALERT hosts an annual sports challenge, with a carnival-like atmosphere for kids, and a community and law enforcement summit as well as doing outreach.For example, Barr, who is president of Senior Hope Counseling, will be visiting seniors in housing projects with others to talk about substance-abuse disorders, opioid issues, and life-saving measures, he said.Through one personal connection at a time, Barr said, the goal is “turning down the violent atmosphere.” Anyone is welcome to join the ALERT task force or to contribute to the cause.

Back in 2014, after the police killings of Michael Brown Jr. in North St. Louis County and VonDerrit Myers Jr. in South St. Louis City, the St. Louis University Clock Tower became a site for Occupy SLU: six days of teach-ins, community conversation, and an occupation by community activists and students, which resulted in the creation of 13 Clock Tower Accords to advance racial equity at the school. This year, after a grand jury in Kentucky declined to indict three Louisville police officers for shooting and killing Breonna Taylor, students gathered at the Clock Tower again to hold a vigil for Breonna Taylor and make new demands to change culture and policies at St. Louis University. On this bonus episode, we’ll hear from three students who organized direct actions and a new list of demands to advance racial equity at St. Louis University.

Hello and Welcome to The Ferguson Project on The Informal History Podcast. I'm Chelsea Offiaeli, a rising junior at Harvard University, studying Women, Gender, and Sexuality and African American Studies. I've created a series of interviews called “The Ferguson Project” in which I take a look into the 2014 Ferguson uprising after Michael Brown Jr., an 18-year old unarmed black teen, was murdered by officer Darren Wilson on August 9, 2014. I will be interviewing reporters that covered the uprising as well as protesters, organizers, artists, and local residents to hear their stories, with a main focus on the black and brown women involved in the movement. In the upcoming episodes you will hear from various members of the movement as they reflect on their participation. I thank you ahead of time, for giving their stories the attention they deserve.

Aloni Benson found himself on the frontlines in Ferguson in 2014, calling for change after a police officer killed Michael Brown Jr. But protesting wasn't enough. Two years later, Benson became an officer with the St. Louis County Police Department.

A note from Talking Taiwan host Felicia Lin:   Stefanie Davis and Patrick Springer are the founders of the Black Lives Solidarity Global Initiative, which organized a rally in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement on June 13th in Taipei’s 228 Peace Park. I spoke to Stefanie and Patrick about their experiences living as people of color in Taiwan and the U.S., the activities planned for the rally and their personal views of Black Lives Matter.   Here’s a description of the Black Lives Solidarity Global Initiative rally from their Facebook event page:   We cannot sit around as the stories of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, Iyanna Dior, Sandra Bland, Philando Castile, Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown Jr., Pamela Turner, Atatiana Jefferson, and countless others become common occurrences- background noise to the daily news, their lives summarized as sound bites between the weather and sports updates.   We cannot sit idly by and watch as police brutality against innocent black and brown bodies continues to go unchecked around the world.   It is time for us to take a stand and make our voices known that we demand action against racism both abroad and at home. That injustice against one of us, is an injustice to all.   Join us in a legal and peaceful rally Saturday, June 13th, at 228 Peace Memorial Park in Taipei as we come together to lend our support and our voices to those around the world fighting for equality and for others right to simply breathe.     Here’s a little preview of what we talked about in this podcast episode:   What brought Stefanie and Patrick to Taiwan and how long they have been here The racism that they have experienced in Taiwan and how it compares to what they’ve experienced in the U.S. How they talk to their students about race and nationality Patrick’s bar Arts & Crafts (in Taichung) How the Black Lives Solidarity Global Initiative (BLSGI) came about The events and activities planned at the June 13 BLSGI rally The Taipei Is Listening Forum How the BLSGI rally has put Taiwan on the map as one of the countries that has had a rally about the injustices happening to Black people in the U.S. The feedback they’ve received about the rally What Stefanie and Patrick hope that people take away from the experience of being at the rally or what they learned at the rally Common stereotypes that people have about Black people Facts and statistics that demonstrate some of the discrimination that Blacks in the U.S. experience The shooting of Atatiana Jefferson and arrest of Sandra Bland Where the funds raised at the rally went Patrick and Stefanie’s personal experiences with Black Lives Matter What advice Stefanie or Patrick have for non-Black people who want to understand the Black experience or who want to be allies What Black Lives Matter means to Stefanie and Patrick Facts and statistics based on US data and research that were shared at the BLSGI rally:   More than 1/2 of young Black Americans know someone, including themselves, who has been harassed by the police.

August 9, 2014 Michael Brown Jr. an 18 year unarmed black man was shot to death by a white officer, Darren Wilson in Ferguson Missouri. On Nov. 24 the St. Louis County Prosecutors decided not to indict officer Wilson in the killing of Michael Brown, that night the city broke into chaos. That night tragedy struck the community again, through the only man killed on the night of the Ferguson riots,  20 year old DeAndre Joshua.  Then again in September of 2016 a prominent activist named Darren Seals was found under similar circumstances... Were they related, and who committed these murders?  Patreon.com/sandupodcast  Sources: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/ferguson-death-mystery-black-lives-matter-michael-brown-809407/amp/  http://nation19.com/the-mystery-killings-of-darren-seals-deandre-joshua-and-shawn-gray/  https://www.phillytrib.com/news/across_america/puzzling-number-of-men-tied-to-ferguson-protests-have-died/article_73a8fcaa-a69a-5667-b460-6afa596ee970.html  https://www.cnn.com/2020/05/15/us/parkland-shooting-officer-reinstated/index.html  https://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/02/us/another-killing-in-ferguson-leaves-a-family-grappling-with-the-unknown.html https://www.ksdk.com/article/news/local/ferguson/a-tale-of-2-ferguson-deaths-1-well-known-1-anonymous/63-211122561 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxVUstvv-RU http://www.stlamerican.com/news/local_news/ferguson-activist-darren-seals-dies-at-29/article_2174f1d8-747f-11e6-990f-33cd70d152a7.html  http://www.stlamerican.com/news/local_news/top-ferguson-activist-darren-seals-found-dead-in-burning-car-police-say/article_12371f3c-753f-11e6-9c8b-2b02493140fc.html https://www.chicagotribune.com/nation-world/ct-ferguson-activist-deaths-black-lives-matter-20190317-story.html   

Tuesday, June 9th 8:00PM Eastern/ 5:00PM Pacific The Context of White Supremacy makes time to examine the recent protests against police terrorism. Here in Seattle, Washington, where Gus has resided for the duration of his tenure hosting The C.O.W.S., violent protests have choked the downtown and central Seattle area as well surrounding parts of the state. The Seattle police department, just like Michael Brown Jr.'s Ferguson, has been under federal consent decree for years as a result of a pattern of abuse against non-white people. The menacing street activity left one black male shot, lots of property damage, and no changes to the System of White Supremacy. For the first time since living in Seattle, Gus was terrified being in the city. With shattered glass, destroyed security gates, increased police presence, barricaded streets, a flood of images of dead black people, and a motley collection of Whites insisting "black lives matter," it seemed something destructive could happen at any moment. In addition to reviewing the mayhem, we'll also discuss the dangerous folly of de-funding police departments. This topic was discussed back in 2015. Nothing about this idea represents an improvement over the current system of Race Soldiers posing as police. #ReadingIsMoreImportantThanWatchingTelevision INVEST in The COWS – paypal.me/TheCOWS The C.O.W.S.

Sunday, June 3rd 8:00PM Eastern/ 5:00PM Pacific The Context of White Supremacy revisits Dr. Frances Cress Welsing's 24th visit our platform. A 3rd generation physician, author, general and child psychiatrist, Dr. Welsing dedicated her life energy to our cosmic assignment:  Replacing White Supremacy With Justice. Although she transitioned at the beginning of 2016, her brilliance continues to instruct and explain current events. Dr. Welsing's 24th visit (out of a total of 31) to The C.O.W.S. was on August 24th, 2014. This was in the middle of the global unrest regarding the police killing of Ferguson, Missouri's Michael Brown Jr. There were protests, militarized police, and violent clashes across the country for the entire month of August. The similarities to our current crisis are staggering. Gus thought black people would benefit from hearing Dr. Welsing remind us why she discourages participation in any large gatherings, protests or riots. Strikingly, the Ebola virus was ravaging the continent at the time of this broadcast, and Dr. Welsing theorized that Racists could brand black people a contagious nuisance and quarantine us all. The 2014 Ebola outbreak is nothing compared the chaos and strife generated by the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic - which has hammered black people in the U.S. #Grandcestor **Details for The C.O.W.S. 2020 Counter-Racist Yoga Retreat: Washington D.C.** #4MoYears INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Invest in The C.O.W.S. - https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S.

Special Episode Alert! What do you do when you meet an inspirational, level 10 individual at a networking event? You pull out your camera and record a podcast! Episode #63 of the Gruler Nation Podcast was 100% impromptu. This episode features Public Figure, Michael Brown Sr., the father of Michael Brown Jr. who was shot in 2014 by white police officer Darren Wilson in the city of Ferguson, Missouri. Michael's son was only 18 years old and had been walking down the street with his friend before the altercation with Wilson began. There are always two sides to a story but in this podcast we get the opportunity to hear the father's side of what happened and how he dealt with losing his son too soon. Michael goes into depth on how he learned to forgive himself, how he continues to heal, and what he does today to give back and spread his son's story to others. You can support Michael Brown Sr. and his family through their nonprofit, Chosen for Change Foundation, in honor of his son and to help empower youth, strengthen families, and give back.

The summer of 2019 marks the five year anniversary of the shooting of Michael Brown Jr. in Ferguson, Missouri—an event that sparked tremendous protests, and which stirred a massive rise in mobility and voice from the Black Lives Matter movement. To reflect on five years of progress since this landmark tragedy and explore the present and future of Black Lives Matter, renowned political and social writer Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor joined us for a Town Hall event for a rising generation of activists. She surveyed the historical and contemporary ravages of racism and persistence of structural inequality such as mass incarceration and Black unemployment. Taylor invited us to recall the triumphs and accomplishments of the people leading Black Lives Matter, as well as the challenges the movement has faced and the ground still left to cover. Sit in for a stirring and insightful retrospective on the nationwide movement to stand against police violence and push for Black liberation. Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor writes on Black politics, social movements, and racial inequality in the United States. Her book From #BlackLivesMatter to Black Liberation won the 2016 Lannan Cultural Freedom Award for an Especially Notable Book. Her articles have been published in Souls: A Critical Journal of Black Politics, Culture and Society, Jacobin, New Politics, The Guardian, In These Times, Black Agenda Report, Ms., International Socialist Review, and other publications. Recorded live in The Great Hall at Town Hall Seattle on September 5, 2019.

Wilson stated that Brown stopped and charged him after a short pursuit. Johnson contradicted this account, stating that Brown turned around with his hands raised after Wilson shot at his back. According to Johnson, Wilson then shot Brown multiple times until Brown fell to the ground. In the entire altercation, Wilson fired a total of twelve bullets, including twice during the struggle in the car;[6] the last was probably the fatal shot. Brown was hit a total of six times from the front.

"How has the death of Michael Brown Jr. impacted your life?" That's among the questions that the St. Louis Public Radio community and people throughout the region have been pondering in recent days in light of the five-year anniversary of the Ferguson protests. The answers are myriad, but Olajuwon Davis’ certainly stands out in the crowd: He’s spent most of his life since that time in prison. How and why Davis’ life changed so drastically in the wake of Brown’s death is the focus of a newly published report by the Riverfront Times’ Danny Wicentowski. In it, Wicentowski details everything from the moment Davis, then a member of the New Black Panther Party, first became active in Ferguson to his arrest and conviction in an FBI sting for “planning and conspiring to ignite explosive devices” among other charges. Prosecutors would allege he and his alleged co-conspirator Brandon Baldwin sought to blow up the Gateway Arch. Host Sarah Fenske discusses Davis’ prosecution with Wicentowski and with Trevor Aaronson, who is a contributor to The Intercept and the author of “The Terror Factory: Inside the FBI's Manufactured War on Terrorism.”

Today - five years after the killing of Michael Brown Jr - we are re-releasing our conversation with the Rev. Dr. Cassandra Gould of Missouri Faith Voices, an affiliate of Faith in Action.  She was one of the first pastors to issue a clarion call to clergy and faith leaders to go to Ferguson, Missouri. This episode was part of our beta launch into this conversation about prophetic resistance.  It was recorded in the fall of 2016, just two years after the Ferguson Uprising.  The conversation with Dr. Gould was contexted by our struggle to change the way that Black people experienced life in communities like Ferguson. And it was contexted by the then-upcoming 2016 presidential election. We are still struggling with the consequences of that election, particularly the racist policies and rhetoric of this administration. And as Faith in Action, along with many justice organizations, prepares for another electoral and census season, we invite you to listen to this episode and remember  Michael Brown, Jr and the power of a movement born out of tragedy.

The Context of White Supremacy hosts our Thursday weekly forum on neutralizing Workplace Racism. This broadcast is uniquely constructed to improve non-white people's problem-solving ability and refine how black people think, speak, act and control emotions while at work. Any listeners who've pieced together a code to eliminate conflicts with White and/or non-white co-workers, bypass demotions, write-ups, terminations or other forms of violence we experience under Racist work conditions should be first to call in with particulars. We appreciate the chance to learn about the experiences of "black entrepreneurs." Please, share with us how being "self employed" improves your labor experience. NPR confirmed Gus's recommendation that non-white people assume they are under surveillance in the workplace. To mark the 4 years since the police killing of Michael Brown Jr., Whites in St. Louis confirmed that black people federal employees are being mistreated. St. Louis's KSDK reports that a recent investigation found "Black employees also got less honest feedback, fewer networking opportunities and less training." In addition to requisition training opportunities in writing, Gus suggests that Victims of Racism makes notes about important workplace events. Documenting your thoughts and workplace occurrences is more reliable than memory, and the act of writing can organize your thinking. We'll also ask that non-white listeners share crucial portions of the policy and procedure from your current place of employment. #PamTheGreat INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#

We’ll examine news reports from the past seven days and – hopefully – promote a constructive dialog. #ANTIBLACKNESS Four years after Ferguson police gunned down unarmed black teen Michael Brown Jr., the prosecutor who decided not to indict the White killer cop has been fired. 27-year incumbent Robert McCullough was defeated in the Democratic primary by a black male, Wesley Bell. Continuing the political activism, Brown's mother, Lezley McSpadden announced she's running for City Council. She and others have also requested the re-opening of the criminal investigation in to her son's death. Wildfires continue to ravage dozens of acres in California. While kudos are doled out to the brave firefighters risking their lives to contain the blaze, the Los Angeles Times reported that a black firefighter had his private property smeared with feces by his fellow firefighters. One year after the "Unite the Right" rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, the dead White Woman Heather Heyer is projected as more heroic then Marvel's Black Panther.

The film, which was producd by music mogul Jay Z, provided details on the shooting death and spectacle of a trial that concluded with Trayvon's killer being acquitted. This week saw lots of new releases in the genre of black death with a documentary reflecting on the changes in Ferguson in the four years since the police killing of Michael Brown Jr. While black people in Chicago and elsewhere publicly protested the terrorism against black people, a substantial number of Whites spent the week squabbling about 3D printed firearms. 8 years ago, Whites in Cleveland contemplating grabbing firearms, torches and everything not nailed down to lynch LeBron James for exiting Ohio. This summer James left Cleveland again and opened an extraordinary new school as well. Whites had to work real hard to pretend James isn't no longer a nigger. #RacismIsTerrorism INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#

Over a million residents in the sunshine state remain without electricity. The Caribbean and the states of the Georgia and South Carolina also experienced storm damage. Large populations of black Caribbeans testify that Whites on the islands were evacuated first and given preferential treatment. Across the Atlantic, a London train was bombed leaving more than 20 transit riders injured. It's been reported that "ISIS" is claiming responsibility for the attack. An act of terrorism on US soil was reported in New Hampshire where an 8-year-old non-white child was racially pummeled by a mob of White urchins. They tied a rope around the child's neck and pushed him from a picnic table. Speaking of protecting children, former Seattle Mayor Ed Murray resigned this week after months speculation that he sexually molested numerous children. KUOW's Gyasi Ross wondered if the only reason this White man left office is because a White accuser finally stepped forward. When Murray was accused of only raping non-white children, he was not compelled to give up his post. And another White Missouri police officer has been exonerated for killing a black male. Former officer Jason Stockley was acquitted of the 2011 shooting death of Anthony Lamar Smith. Much like the Michael Brown Jr. protests that roiled Ferguson in 2014, large crowds of people have marched in the streets for much of the day. #AnswersForMiriamCarey INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p

The Context of White Supremacy welcomes the return of Krystl Tyler. First visiting the program in September 2014, Tyler is a White Woman who took a safari to Ferguson, Missouri after the police killing of unarmed Michael Brown Jr. She processed the killing as another illustration of White Supremacy and used the historic and tragic moment to huckster her book, The Wheat Money. The text details how she, a White Woman, lives a life of relative ease and comfort - getting checks in the mail for doing nothing. Conversely, her Black husband and the father of her daughter is a crack head. With explicit detail, Tyler explains how centuries of deliberate white terrorism orchestrated her husband's substance abuse problems. During her first visit, she admitted that she consciously selected her black husband, victim, to snare his genetic material. It's been nearly three years since we've spoken with Tyler. She reached out to Gus, and asked to return to The C.O.W.S. #AnswersForMiriamCarey INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade Listen or Call In With Web Based Flash Phone CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly Compensatory Call-In. We encourage non-white listeners to dial in with their codified concepts, new terms, observations, research findings, workplace problems or triumphs, and/or suggestions on how best to Replace White Supremacy With Justice ASAP. We'll use these sessions to hone our use of words as tools to reveal truth, neutralize White people. We'll examine news reports from the past seven days and - hopefully - promote a constructive dialog. #ANTIBLACKNESS A week after capturing the White House, President-elect Donald J. Trump began constructing his cabinet and staff members. Breitbart.com executive Stephen Bannon was named chief White House strategist. Senator Harry Reid, among many, lambasted the choice, denouncing Bannon as a "champion of white supremacists." A Washington Post report attempted to convince readers that Bannon is not a resurrection of Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbells. The global ramifications of Trump's victory are still being determined, but Canadians report a spike in Americans seeking political asylum as well as a rise in violent Racist attacks in Canada. Black children in Michael Brown Jr.'s Missouri publicized allegations of numerous Racist attacks and organized a classroom walkout to protest conditions. NBA champion LeBron James accused New York Knicks general manager Phil Jackson of racially disparaging his childhood friends and business partners because they are black. Jackson branded James' comrades a "posse." Tellingly, In his 2004 book, Jackson used the same term to describe James' black colleagues. #AnswersForMiriamCarey INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p

Tellingly, this is the same town where Whites intentionally closed their schools for five years to keep black children away from White kids. Continuing the pattern, Sunday's pending debate between Hillary R. Clinton and Donald J. Trump will take place in St. Louis, Missouri; the candidates will spar down the road from where Michael Brown Jr. was killed by Ferguson police. The drama won't be restricted to politics, as Nate Parker and Ava DuVernay each have new films addressing Racism premiering this week. Parker's The Birth Of A Nation hits the silver screen after months spent thrashing the actor and filmmaker for rape accusations nearly two decades old. DuVernay's acclaimed film, 13th, deconstructs how slavery has been refined, not abolished. Her film makes known how decades of deliberately Racist laws have caged generations of black people. The political performances, box office debuts and the launch of Luke Cage obscured the destruction Hurricane Matthew delivered in Haiti. More than 200 have been reported dead on the island still being punished by the global White minority for Haitian Revolution. #RacismIsNotAPrivilege INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p

The Context of White Supremacy hosts our monthly Global Sunday Talk On Racism. This broadcast is egineered to encourage participation from Victims of Racisms outside the United States and/or non-white people who are not able to take part during our typical program time. Our July broadcast of this segment was simultaneous with the reported shooting of three police officers in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. We'll get an international analysis of last month's alleged police killings as well as the five year anniversary of the killing of Mark Duggan and the ensuing "London Riots." Much like Michael Brown Jr., Sandra Bland, Sarah Reed, Tamir Rice and so many other dead black people, no one was ever prosecuted for Duggan's death. We also look forward to hearing global thoughts on the 2016 Olympics in Brazil. Heavily melanated athletes took lots of gold, but an equal amount of time was spent discussing the Zika virus as well as Racist Suspect Ryan Lochte. #RacismIsNotAPrivilege INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE: 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p

In the subsequent days, Whites invested equal time rejoicing over Newton's defeat and admonishing his Trayvonesque press conference as well as Beyonce's halftime performance of her new single "Formation." Former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani and others branded the Grammy-winning vocalist a "racist" and protested in front of NFL headquarters for allowing her to perform an homage to the Black Panther Party. Speaking of the Big Apple and police terrorism, NYPD officer Pete Liang was found guilty for the 2014 killing of Akai Gurley. Liang could face up to 15 years in prison. The Gurley killing took place within weeks of the non-indictment of Michael Brown Jr.'s killer in 2014. This week Attorney General Loretta Lynch and the Department of Justice announced their plan to sue the City of Ferguson for failure to comply with federal guidelines for reforming the police department that terrorized and financially extorted black Missourians. Speaking of antiblack, the trailer for The Purge 3 was released. #AnswersForMiriamCarey INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p

A total of seven houses of worship have been terrorized in less than a month. A $9,000 reward has been offered - although Darren Wilson and Daniel Holtzclaw received heftier sums for brutalizing black citizens. Racists seethed about black actors in the latest Star Wars installment and Zimbabwe's Robert Mugabe being awarded the Chinese Peace Prize. The successful protests of black scholars in South Africa produced a freeze on tuition fees for education. Their US counterparts have highlight racist obstacles to academic excellence facing black students on this side of the planet. And everyone should make time to read "The Strange Case of Anna Stubblefield;" failure to recognize Whites as sexual predators is a gargantuan - often fatal - error. #AnswersForMiriamCarey INVEST in The COWS - http://tiny.cc/ledjb CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p

The legions of activists who've joined "Black Lives Matter" have increasingly called on presidential candidates Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton to acknowledge Racism. The 50 year anniversary of the Watts unrest provided another chance for Whites to maintain that there has been immense progress in "race relations." It's been a decade since Hurricane Katrina, and The Chicago Tribune demonstrated that contempt for black life remains high; staff writer and Racist Suspect Kristen McQueary published an op-ed piece on her wish that Chicago have its own disaster to wash away Illinois' niggers. #AnswersForMiriamCarey INVEST in The COWS - http://tiny.cc/ledjb CALL IN NUMBER: 760.569.7676 CODE 564943# SKYPE: FREECONFERENCECALLHD.7676 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p

Dr. Marva Robinson returns to The Context of White Supremacy. She's the president of the St. Louis Association of Black Psychologists and has been counseling black Ferguson residents since the police killing of Michael Brown Jr. When she visited us in December, she explained that an important aspect of the healing involved confronting the reality of Racism/White Power. We look forward to hearing an update on the mental health of black St. Louis residents. We're curious to see how the lack of indictments and subsequent shootings of Black people have impacted the Ferguson area. Some of our listeners began administering healing circles after Dr. Robinson's previous visit. Perhaps they can give us a word as well. We'll also hear from former South Carolina NAACP president Melvin Poole. We'll discuss the Charleston, SC shooting and coordinated White response.

Chris Osterndorf visits The Context of White Supremacy. Mr. Osterndorf is a graduate of DePaul University's Digital Cinema program. He is a contributing writer for DailyDot and HeavyMedia and typically focuses on entertainment and pop culture. Gus first became aware of Osterndorf as a result of his 2014 article, The history of White people hating LeBron James. Osterndorf was straightforward in dissecting how James' confidence and #BlackSelfRespect galls whitefolks. This piece was approximately a month before the shooting death of Michael Brown Jr. Subsequently, Osterndorf - and many other Whites - devoted increasing ink to police terrorism and race. Last month he authored a compelling report challenging the concept of "good" cops; he declares, "You can't have a good cop in a bad police culture." Gus just finished a report applying Osterndorf's logic to Whites: You can't have good White people in a Racist White culture.INVEST in The COWS - http://tiny.cc/ledjb CALL IN NUMBER: 760.569.7676 CODE 564943# SKYPE: FREECONFERENCECALLHD.7676 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p

Half of the accused officers are black, and a black officer (Caesar Goodson Jr.) is facing the most severe charge - second-degree "depraved heart" murder. Cleveland, Ohio residents salivate over a possible return to the NBA Finals while simultaneously preparing for potential melees in response to the Michael Brelo verdict; Brelo is the lone Cleveland officer facing criminal charges for a 2012 shooting that left two unarmed black people dead and at least 137 shots fired. Ferguson smoldered in response to Michael Brown Jr.'s killing, there's been far less attention and rage for the alleged horrors of Homer G. Phillips Hospital. Black St. Louis mothers charge that they were given false information that their children died during the delivery process only for their babies to be stolen and sold. And in other news, let Jesse Lee Peterson know that Google is Racist and President Obama resides in the Nigger House.

The issues raised by deaths at the hands of police of unarmed men and boys of color in Ferguson, Cleveland, New York City and elsewhere as well as the assassination of two police officers in New York City are complicated and expose many, many shortcomings in our society. This panel will explore a range of questions around policing and police training but also look at the role race, poverty, access to guns and the failure of other public sector institutions and policies play in these tragic events. The panel will focus on identifying policies and strategies that can help bridge the real and perceived divide that persists between too many communities and the police that are supposed to serve and protect them. Cathy Cohen, professor of political science at UChicago and chair of the department; Cap. Ronald Johnson, Missouri State Highway Patrol, appointed by Gov. Jay Nixon to the Lead Protest Security following the fatal police shooting of Michael Brown Jr.; Andrew Papachristos, Associate Professor of Sociology at Yale University; Charlene Carruthers, national coordinator of the Black Youth Project; and writer and activist Jamie Kalven joined the Institute of Politics to discuss these most important and timely issues. The conversation was moderated Steve Edwards, Executive Director of the Institute of Politics. This event was co-sponsored by the University of Chicago Office of Civic Engagement.
