he Revolutionary Black Panther Party or RBPP is a Marxist-Leninist black nationalist organization in the United States. RBPP claims to continue the legacy of the Black Panther Party (BPP) of the 1960s.In 1992 the RBPP was created. The RBPP states its aims as "protecting and defending our people against genocide, ethnic cleansing, crimes against humanity, the Black African Holocaust and race war waged against people of African descent."The RBPP considers itself to be a continuation of the Black Panther Party active in the United States from 1966 and 1982. RBPP leader Alli Muhammad (Chief-General-In-Command), was raised as a member of the BPP. According to Muhammad, "Growing up a Panther cub … there are things engrained in you, that you can never get out of you, and it matures you, it is difficult to erase this maturity and as a fully grown panther, it lives on in the Revolution, in the Revolutionary Black Panther Party".The RBPP launched what they call the "Armed Black Human Rights Movement" and "Armed Freedom Rides" and did an "Armed Human Rights March" with machetes and rifles through the Central West End (white community) of St. Louis, Missouri, for what according to Alli Muhammad, was "in honor of the humanity" of black victims such as Michael Brown., Alton Sterling, Angelo Brown and Darren Seals.In 2016, RBPP marched in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, armed with guns, to protest to what they referred to as "genocide" of African Americans at the hands of law enforcement. The RBPP called for the resignation of Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett and Police Chief Ed Flynn.Now they are up against MAGA and the whole authoritarian eco-system.Che Guevara "I don't care if I fall as long as someone else picks up my gun and keeps on shooting."Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett on Wisconsin's Morning News

For months, public health officials have been repeating coronavirus messaging: wear masks, social distance and get tested for possible exposure when possible. With Christmas and New Year's just days away, officials are more concerned than ever. On Tuesday, Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett and city health department officials held a news conference in the Miller Park parking lot. It's one of the places where COVID-19 testing is being offered. They hoped the visual reinforcement would drive their message home. In recent weeks, fewer people have been tested for the coronavirus in the Milwaukee area. “This site is a very important site. It's been a very successful site for us over the last six weeks. We want to continue to have it be a success because we think that the value it brings to our efforts to fight COVID-19 are so very, very important. But we also know that we have not had the volume here that we can handle. And I want to stress, first, that the testing here is quick and it’s free and

Around 65,000 doses of COVID-19 vaccine will soon be headed to Wisconsin, according to local health officials. First responders and people who live or work in long-term care facilities will be first up to be vaccinated. As more doses become available, it’s expected that the vaccination will be offered to more people. Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett says that while he’s ready to sign up and get the vaccine, he understands that’s not the case for everyone. “There’s going to be one camp of people that we’re going to have to spend a lot of time convincing that it’s a good move to get the vaccination," he says. Dr. Ben Weston, director of medical services for the Milwaukee County Office of Emergency Management, says some people fear the vaccination could change the makeup of their DNA. But he says that’s not the case. “And importantly, the MRNA vaccines do not affect the DNA of your body. In fact, they don’t even enter the part of your cells that contain the DNA. As soon as they do their job,

Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett announced Tuesday that police officers will now accompany city health inspectors as they conduct inspections at local bars and other dining establishments. The move comes after an incident at Serb Hall in southwest Milwaukee this past Saturday where a pro-Trump rally was shut down after city inspectors arrived because people weren't complying with social distancing rules, a mask mandate or capacity limits. And, Barrett said the inspectors were threatened. "When the inspectors arrived on Saturday, they found lots of problems, lots of problems, and they were accosted, certainly, verbally. Reports are that there was perhaps some jostling that went on along with that. But they were certainly verbally assaulted, and perhaps physically mistreated as well," he said. Milwaukee's interim Health Commissioner Marlaina Jackson said that increased enforcement is a result of the dangerous trends in positive coronavirus case numbers. She was adamant that Saturday’s

Coronavirus cases are exploding across Wisconsin . Local leaders gave an update Tuesday about what’s going on here. Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett says a record number of people were tested Monday for the virus. “If you look [Monday] at Miller Park, we tested 2,805 people. On the northwest side, we tested 586 people. On the south side, we tested 528 people. So, the city of Milwaukee total for one day, with our resources, is close to 4,000,” Barrett says. Barrett says the testing facility at Miller Park continues to exceed its capacity of 2,000 tests per day. Another person on the media call was Milwaukee County Emergency Medical Services Director Dr. Ben Weston. He talked about Pfizer’s announcement that the vaccine it’s developing is 90% effective in studies. Weston calls the news promising. But he says “accelerating trends” in coronavirus cases will continue for a while. “This won’t go on for years, but it will without a doubt go on for months. It’s an unusual year. It’s a sad year, but

Wisconsin is a hotbed of activity for COVID-19 right now. On Tuesday, the state recorded more than 2,300 cases and 17 more deaths, bringing the total to 1,300. At the beginning of the pandemic, Milwaukee County was leading the way in the number of cases, but that is not the case anymore. The majority of the spread is now being seen in other parts of the state. Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett says that’s why the National Guard will soon be closing its testing locations here. The city will take over. Barrett says the state wants to deploy guard members where they are most needed. “Our overall plan is to maintain capacity and ease of testing at sites throughout the city. So we’re working again with the National Guard, with local stakeholders as to where the best locations for those sites will be,” Barrett says. Barrett says the city will assume coronavirus testing duties for the National Guard at the same time that it’s ramping up city flu clinics. Doctors are urging everyone to get a flu

We are on tape from last week's from the Democratic National Convention, in our long planned counter programming to the proto-fascist Republican National Convention. Will not be able to comment on the latest racist atrocity in Kenosha until next week (our latest statements are at citizenactionwi.org). For this week's program, on radio row at the Democratic National Convention we taped 4 interviews about a central question for the future of racial justice, economic equality, and the future of the planet: will a future Biden Administration, if we can elect him, be boldly progressive? The alliance between Biden and Bernie Sanders on policy is a great sign, but there are huge challenges to making this alliance between moderates and progressives really happen after the election. We ask two moderates and two progressives for their views. We start the moderates, leading off with Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett, whose storied political career in state and national politics has made him a very well informed player within the Democratic Party. Next we talk to Jason Ray, the Secretary of the Democratic National Committee, who knows the inner workings of the party as well as anyone. Then, we talk to two progressives with national reputations. John Nichols the National Affairs Correspondent for The Nation, and one of the most prolific writers in the entire progressive media and a large following in his native Wisconsin. Finally George Goehl, Executive Director of People's Action (Citizen Action's national network), bats clean up on our powerhouse panel. George is one of the most respected and strategic progressives organizers in the country.

Demonstrations are scheduled for Friday in Milwaukee to protest deaths caused by police officers. One rally demands justice for Joel Acevedo, another one protests the death of George Floyd . Acevedo is the man who died after a fight at the home of a Milwaukee police officer. The officer has been charged in connection with the death. Floyd was arrested on a forgery complaint in Minneapolis earlier this week and died in police custody. A video shows Floyd, who is black, lying handcuffed face down on the cement while a white police officer presses his knee on Floyd’s neck to restrain him. Floyd screams “I can’t breathe” and a crowd of people gathered around begs the officer to stop kneeling on him. Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett called the incident horrific at a news briefing on Thursday. “America witnessed a murder, and it underscores the very serious challenges we face in combating racism in our country. And I would simply ask residents throughout this community who are outraged, as I was

The city of Milwaukee is an island right now. It’s the only municipality in Milwaukee County with a stay-at-home order meant to slow the spread of the coronavirus. The 18 other communities have allowed nonessential businesses to reopen. Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett said last week that he’d comment on a possible plan to reopen the city this coming Friday. In the meantime, he’s calling on people to wash hands thoroughly, wear masks in public, and continue the practice of social distancing. Latest WUWM & NPR Coronavirus Coverage On Tuesday, Barrett said the latter was in short supply in some places over Memorial Day weekend. “I saw some pictures from Bradford Beach where I thought some people were getting a little too close to each other there,” says Barrett. “Please don't ruin it for other people. That's my request. Please don't ruin it for other people by not following. This is not necessarily about you. It's about everyone. It's about our community.” Barrett has said metrics will

Suburban communities in Milwaukee County are reopening Friday. That means all businesses can open their doors. But the city of Milwaukee continues to keep nonessential businesses closed. Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett says he would like to have good news next Friday about a gradual plan to reopen those establishments. But first, there are benchmarks to meet. "We're gonna be looking at the number of cases and the percent positive cases. That's something that's important. We're gonna look at testing the testing capacity of Milwaukee residents who are symptomatic. The same for the PPE, making sure that we’ve got enough equipment for our hospital workers, our frontline workers, and the tracing," he says. Latest WUWM & NPR Coronavirus Coverage Barrett says city officials are also keeping track of the number of COVID-19 patients in hospitals, which he says hasn't been trending in the right direction. There was a 29% increase in the number of hospital beds used over the last week and an

Instead it was Wisconsin's longest-serving governor — a Republican governor — Gov. Tommy Thompson.

He was elected on November 8, 2018 and sworn into office on January 7, 2019. He is the first African-American to serve as a Lieutenant Governor in Wisconsin, and the second African-American to ever hold statewide office. Born and raised in Milwaukee, Mandela is the son of a public-school teacher and a United Auto Workers member, to whom he credits much of his success. He grew up attending Milwaukee Public Schools and is an alumnus of Alabama A&M University. He worked for various political campaigns and in the office of Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett, eventually becoming an organizer for Milwaukee Inner City Congregations Allied for Hope, a Milwaukee-based interfaith coalition that advocates social justice.

In this episode of Brandstorm, we welcome Andy Silverman, one of the co-founders of Milwaukee Day. Andy discusses how a joke amongst friends has exploded into a mammoth annual celebration of hometown pride through fun and service. Milwaukee DayThe date of April 14th (or 4/14), is perfect for recognizing Milwaukee, home to the 414- area code. Andy’s brother Toby originally voiced the correlation between the date and the area code about 8 or 9 years ago on social media, leading Andy and some of his friends to purchase an official Milwaukee Day URL that very day and begin dreaming up the idea. A year later, commemorating the next April 14th, Andy starred in a short video, unofficially declaring the holiday. It went viral soon after, thanks to Milwaukee television anchor Ted Perry, who broadcasted the video on the FOX 6 evening news. Since then, the annual event has snowballed into a large goodwill effort to explore and experience Milwaukee’s vast history, raise funds or awareness for local charities, take in live, local music, and to do whatever one deems appropriate in celebration of the city. Andy says the Milwaukee Day movement comes from a sincere love for his hometown and embracing everything that makes Milwaukee unique. Assistance From Local BusinessesFor several years, the Milwaukee Day organizers have received sponsorships from local businesses to keep ticket prices low for those attending. Andy says his team is lucky to not only be working with these companies, but that the same organizations are often the first to reach out to them. As more companies have come on board and created their own events, it has lessened the load for the Milwaukee Day team, making the day more about inspiration and less about execution. Fun Events and Discounts on Milwaukee DayHere are just a few of the gatherings or special deals you can take advantage of on Milwaukee Day. More are listed on their website, found below. The Official Milwaukee Day Party at Company Brewing, sponsored by Gruber Law Offices and WMSE, features live music from Tigernite, Midwest Death Rattle and Zed Kenso. Company Brewing is also releasing a limited Milwaukee Day Ale. The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Peck School of the Arts Open House will showcase art exhibitions, film screenings and live performances from over 100 award-winning graduate students and faculty. The Harley-Davidson Museum is offering free admission to anyone wearing clothes emblazoned with the word "Milwaukee." Celebrating Milwaukee Through ServiceWhile Andy and the Milwaukee Day team love driving traffic to their sanctioned events, part of their mission is also to bring awareness to positive causes. This ranges from park clean-ups to non-partisan voter registration to raising funds for area public charter school Escuela Verde. Andy says that Milwaukee Day is a great reason to give people guidance on how they can help out their community. Getting Noticed Both Locally and NationallyOn top of receiving annual recognition from Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett and the City Common Council, Milwaukee Day recently garnered national attention when it was spotlighted as an answer on the television gameshow Jeopardy!. Andy is proud that this mention came seemingly out of nowhere with no one on the Milwaukee Day team having any connection to the show. Clearly, the passion for Milwaukee Day is no longer limited to just Wisconsin! Contact Milwaukee Day:Website: www.milwaukeeday.com Email: milwaukeeday@gmail.com Twitter: @MilwaukeeDay

On April 30, 2014, a police officer, Christopher Manney, shot and killed Dontre Hamilton, at Red Arrow Park in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. No charges were brought, but Manney was fired from the force. As a result of the shooting and subsequent protests, Milwaukee police officers were equipped with body cameras. Dontre D. Hamilton (d. April 30, 2014), of Milwaukee, was 31 years old at the time of his death.[1] Hamilton had a history of mental illness.[1][2] In 2013, he had made a suicide attempt by stabbing both sides of his neck and had been hospitalized. According to Milwaukee Police Chief Edward Flynn, Hamilton had a prior history of arrests in Milwaukee which were "directly connected to mental health issues."[1] Hamilton's family stated that Hamilton had been treated for schizophrenia but was not violent.[2][3] In the days before his death, Hamilton told his family that he was "tired and hungry, and that somebody was going to kill him."[2] On April 30, 2014, Manney shot Hamilton fourteen times, killing him.[3] The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel summarized the events as follows: Before the encounter, a pair of officers responding to a call that Hamilton was asleep in the park checked on him twice and found he was doing nothing wrong. When Manney arrived, he was not aware that other officers had preceded him As Manney began to pat down Hamilton, Hamilton fought him, and a confrontation ensued. Manney tried to use his baton to subdue Hamilton, but Hamilton got control of it and swung at Manney, hitting him on the side of the neck, according to Milwaukee police internal affairs.No additional weapons were found on Hamilton's person.[3] InvestigationThe investigation was carried out by the Wisconsin Division of Criminal Investigation, a statewide agency, but the lead agents for the investigation were former Milwaukee police officers.[3]The Milwaukee County District Attorney's Office conducted an investigation. In December 2014, District Attorney John Chisholm found the use of force to be in self-defense and declined to prosecute.[3][4][5][6]A federal investigation took place,[7] and was closed in November 2015, with federal authorities determining that there was insufficient evidence to pursue federal criminal civil rights charges against Manney.[8]Firing of ManneyAfter the shooting, Manney applied for duty disability, saying the shooting and its aftermath caused him to experience severe post-traumatic stress disorder.[3]Police Chief Edward Flynn fired Manney after the shooting.[9] In March 2015, a three-member panel of the Milwaukee Fire and Police Commission unanimously upheld the firing, sustaining and confirming the two conclusions of an internal investigation, which determined that: Manney had conducted a frisking process without a reasonable suspicion. Manney did follow departmental "Defense and Arrest Tactics."[9]The firing does not affect Manney's pending disability application.[9]LawsuitIn 2014, Jovan Blacknell was retained by the family of Hamilton.[10][11] In 2017, the Hamilton family received a 2.3 million dollar settlement from the City of Milwaukee.[12]ProtestsDontre's brother, Nate Hamilton, has also since co-founded the Coalition for Justice, an organization that has led rallies, marches, and street clean-ups. The Black Lives Matter movement has also protested Hamilton's death.[13]Policy changesIn the aftermath of Hamilton's death, "Hamilton's family members worked with Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett, the Police Department and other city leaders to have all officers receive Crisis Intervention Team training, considered the gold standard for working with people in psychiatric crisis, by 2017."[3]Additionally, eight Milwaukee aldermen and a majority of the Milwaukee Common Council, called in December 2014 for equipping all city police officers with body cameras on an expedited basis.[14] In October 2015, the Fire and Police Commission approved, by a 4–1 vote, a new policy requiring "most Milwaukee police officers to wear body cameras at all times while on duty, though they will not be required to have the devices always activated."[15] A four-phase implementation process was developed, and officers began to wear the cameras in October 2015.[16] However, following a similar police shooting of a Milwaukee black man in 2016, the Milwaukee Police Department was criticized for not submitting a review of its new patterns and practices.[17]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/1198501/advertisement
