**Community Connection: Exploring the Future of the Circle City Classic** This week on Community Connection, we're diving into the world of the Circle City Classic, a beloved Indianapolis tradition that's been bringing people together for decades. But as the city's demographics and interests change, the classic's future is uncertain. Our host, Tina Cosby, is joined by a lively panel of callers, including Wisdom Cole, Senior National Director of Advocacy for the NAACP, who shares his insights on the importance of community engagement and voting rights. The conversation touches on the challenges facing the Circle City Classic, including declining attendance and a lack of enthusiasm among younger generations. Our callers share their thoughts on how to revitalize the event, from incorporating star power to finding new and innovative ways to engage the community. Wisdom Cole emphasizes the need for collective action and community involvement, highlighting the power of the "power of five" – taking responsibility for five people in your community to ensure they're registered, educated, and voting. As the discussion unfolds, our host and callers explore the complexities of hosting events in downtown Indianapolis, including the impact of gentrification and the need for creative solutions to stay relevant. The conversation also delves into the world of food trucks and how they're changing the way people experience food and entertainment. Join us as we explore the future of the Circle City Classic and the importance of community engagement in shaping the city's events and traditions. Listen to the full episode to hear more from Wisdom Cole and our callers as they share their thoughts on how to revitalize the classic and make it relevant to a new generation.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mary and Andrew begin by addressing President Trump banning CNN, MS NOW and POLITICO from White House grounds. Andrew calls the move “blatantly unconstitutional,” making an allusion to Nazi Germany and noting that the control of the free press is “the tool of autocrats”: “‘You will believe what I tell you and you will see only what I want you to see,'” he summarizes. Then, the co-hosts move to Trump's “vanity projects,” beginning with what they call the “Arc de Trumph” — a proposed 250-foot arch in Washington DC that Trump says will serve as a military complex. Then, more on the Kennedy Center drama: a federal judge has blocked Trump's name from being added to the building, after which Trump stated that the building will stay closed and without necessary renovations until that decision is reversed. Plus, several organizations file two lawsuits aimed at preemptively keeping federal agents from polling locations.

Tennessee is dropping $280 million on a hotel and entertainment district next to Neyland Stadium while the coalition pushing the Protect College Sports Act, Ted Cruz, Nick Saban, Pat McAfee and now Deion Sanders, tells you college athletes are bankrupting the sport. Big Ten revenue is near $1.5 billion. Miami and Nike agreed to a 10 year deal worth more than $200 million. Ohio State's roster budget runs $54 million. Nobody is broke. The anti-NIL push is about restricting how much of that money reaches predominantly black rosters, and it keeps getting sold to the public through a rotating cast of black faces: Jay-Z during the anthem protests, an HBCU player, and now Deion Sanders fronting an unpaid ad. Colin Kaepernick's memoir tour lays out that pattern, including Robert Kraft confirming he blocked Macklemore over his Palestine comments.

Tabitha Brown was destined for greatness. Her natural ability to connect with people, paired with her professional training as an actress, only strengthened her self-belief. A viral video catapulted her onto the screens and into the lives of millions of people worldwide, cementing what she always knew would happen. Since then, Tabitha has become a two-time Emmy Award-winning host, four-time bestselling author, children's entertainment creator, multi-NAACP award winner, and serial entrepreneur across beauty, food, haircare, and fragrance verticals. Before her rise to fame, Tabitha was hustling in L.A., building connections and a portfolio of work in pursuit of her acting career. She came from North Carolina with a dream and a supportive family, determined to build the life God had promised her. Along the way, divinely aligned opportunities charted a path toward the success she knew she was destined to have and capable of maintaining. During our conversation, we discussed the importance of strong faith and a strong work ethic. Tabitha explained that she decided she wouldn't just have a viral moment, but would build on her skills and experience to create a sustainable career. She walked us through her decision to move to L.A. twice, both times to pursue her creative dreams, and how she prepared for success while doing so. We dove deep into her business acumen and how she's found success across many industries while staying true to her vision and sense of purpose. She shared her entire hair journey, the many big chops, working with her husband, and how to handle online negativity. When Tabitha says, everything must be aligned, she means it. Every aspect of her business reflects who she is and what she loves; whether that's her commitment to a vegan lifestyle, her love of children, or her lifelong love of haircare. Tabitha gave us full access to the dietary, beauty, and haircare choices that make up the woman we all admire.

In 1935, Sinclair Lewis wrote It Can't Happen Here—a chilling novel about a populist demagogue who promises every citizen cash payouts, rallies anti-immigrant fervor, and steadily dismantles democracy from within. Lewis wasn't just writing fiction; he was issuing a warning. On the latest episode of Trey's Table, we examine the life and work of Sinclair Lewis, the first American to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. From his sharp critique of American fascism to his groundbreaking 1947 novel Kingsblood Royal—inspired by his close friendship with NAACP leader Walter White—we break down why Lewis's words are more urgent today than ever.

Bill discusses concerns that Donald Trump may interfere with the upcoming November 3 midterm election, focusing on attacks on mail-in voting and broader threats to a free and fair process. Virginia Kase Solomon, CEO of Common Cause, describes how all states use some form of mail voting, notes studies (including one cited from The Heritage Foundation) finding virtually no fraud, and explains safeguards like barcodes, signature matching, and voter-roll maintenance. She outlines Trump's March 31 executive order involving DHS and the USPS, argues it is unconstitutional and operationally impossible to implement close to the election, and reviews ongoing litigation, including a Massachusetts restraining order and additional cases with partners such as the NAACP and Black Voters Matter. Solomon also warns about potential ICE presence at polls, ballot seizure and chain-of-custody issues, polling-place reductions after Voting Rights Act changes, and urges voting early, returning mail ballots promptly, and volunteering via protectthevote.net or as election workers.Today Bill highlights the work of Common Cause.

Community land trusts make it possible for land to be owned collectively while individuals own the homes and businesses on it. The model grew out of the civil rights movement, when Black farmers in the rural South used collective ownership to build economic independence despite barriers to credit and land access.Today, community land trusts help preserve affordable housing and commercial spaces while giving communities more control over their future. The Rondo Community Land Trust in St. Paul is one example. It is working to rebuild community wealth and preserve the legacy of the historic Black neighborhood displaced by Interstate 94.MPR News host Angela Davis and her guests talk about how community land trusts work, why collective ownership matters and what the model could offer communities across Minnesota.Guests:Mikeya Griffin is the president and CEO of Rondo Community Land Trust, a nonprofit that creates permanently affordable homes and commercial spaces that keep land, opportunity, and legacy rooted in community. She grew up in St. Paul's historic Rondo neighborhood and is the first African American woman to lead the 30-year-old organization.Debbie Montgomery is a community leader who grew up in the Rondo neighborhood of St. Paul. She was the first Black woman police sergeant in St. Paul and the first Black woman elected to the St. Paul City Council. She also served as assistant commissioner for the Minnesota Department of Public Safety. At age 17, she became the youngest person to serve on the national board of the NAACP, an organization that works towards equity, political rights and social inclusion of Black people and people of color.

Nolan Wells' district attorney says the grand jury will eventually get every piece of evidence collected in his case. Seven weeks after Nolan died on Horn Island, Mississippi, his phone, the device his friends carried off that island, has never actually been collected. His mother already looked. Before any forensic protocol existed, she and her sister went through the phone themselves and opened both of Nolan's Snapchat accounts. They were completely empty. On July 15, the family's lawyers and District Attorney Angel Myers McIlrath agreed to a joint forensic exam at a community college digital forensics lab, possibly with the FBI involved. No date was ever set. A month later came a letter giving the family 48 hours to hand the phone over, while Nolan's parents were out of state. Five days after that, the family offered four dates on twelve hours' notice. Still no exam. This case has pulled in more outside attention than most. The Congressional Black Caucus has asked the Department of Justice for a federal review. The NAACP joined the family's legal team. Prominent voices, including Al Sharpton, have said outright that the phone was wiped, all before a single forensic test has been run on it. Meanwhile, the three friends who were on the island with Nolan handed their own devices to federal agents with no subpoena required, and the sheriff's office ruled out foul play within two days, ahead of the completed autopsy. No charges have been filed. The friends deny tampering. The family has subpoenaed Snapchat, Meta, TikTok, WhatsApp, and Life360 for the server records the phone can't hold on its own. Tony Brueski separates what's actually been proven from what's been claimed, and asks what it means when a case draws this much national noise before the most basic piece of evidence has even been opened. Links & Legal Footer: Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Kim Wiggins is a world-renowned painter from New Mexico, and one of the most recognizable artists working in the American West today. His bold, swirling canvases have made him one of the leading artistic voices of what's come to be called the New West. His work hangs in the Autry, the Booth, and the American Museum of Western Art in Denver, and this past year he won Best in Show at the Prix de West, the most prestigious award in Western art, becoming the first modernist ever to take it home. Kim comes by all of this honestly. Both sides of his family came west in covered wagons in the late 1800s and settled into ranching along the Pecos River. His mother was running two ranches and a nightclub in Arizona by her mid-twenties; his father was a photojournalist for Life and Sports Illustrated, and a bush pilot who once had to sprint back to his plane in the Amazon and count the arrows in the side of the fuselage. Kim grew up surrounded by creativity– Thomas Hart Benton paged through his sketchbook and he ate lunch with Georgia O'Keeffe at Ghost Ranch. He began focusing seriously on painting while stationed in Europe with the military and soon became the youngest member of the Society of American Impressionists — a career most artists would give an arm for, and one he walked away from completely. We talk about why he walked away, which starts with a moment at a show in St. Louis when he spotted one of his paintings across the room, hurried over, and discovered it wasn't his. We cover the lean years that followed, including knocking on doors in Lubbock in the summer heat with a car full of paintings. And we get into the ideas behind the work: why a loss of innovation is the death knell of a civilization, why he watches children in galleries instead of collectors, the paintings he made for the NAACP after his son asked him a question he couldn't answer, and his conviction that a gift, by definition, belongs to someone else. I first met Kim back in 2022 at Maxwell Alexander Gallery's ten-year show, where he was on a panel I moderated, and I've wanted a longer conversation ever since.

Two prosecutors, one blind spot. Plymouth County called a psychiatrist to prove Lindsay Clancy was responsible, and the jury heard him relay the voice she described. Jackson County pledged a grand jury would see everything it gathered on Nolan Wells, and it never gathered the phone. Jennifer Coffindaffer, a 25-year FBI veteran, works both with Tony Brueski.In Massachusetts, the last defense witness was Dr. Phillip Resnick, by video, on August 21, 2026. He put Clancy in the same category as Andrea Yates: psychotic, following orders from a voice. Coffindaffer says sick and still responsible. Tony puts every argument next to a fact. Yates planned too. The testing showed no faking. She had a psychiatrist session the day before. She's paralyzed and on suicide watch. The chaplain heard about the voice in 2023 and the lawsuit came in 2026. McLean sent her home nineteen days out. Mack first met her in April 2026.In Mississippi, the 18-year-old never came home from a July 4 boat trip. The phone did. His mother says what she found on it had been emptied out; his friends say they left it alone. The July 15 joint-exam deal produced no date. The DA's 48-hour letter arrived August 12, and the family answered with August 18 through 21. Seven weeks on, no exam, and the DA's statements don't say the word.The sheriff's office cleared the case of foul play on day two, pre-autopsy, and never asked for the phone. The Congressional Black Caucus, the NAACP, and Al Sharpton all weighed in before any test. The friends handed over their own phones to federal agents voluntarily.Clancy maintains a not guilty plea on lack of criminal responsibility, and nobody has been charged over Nolan. Both cases are about to be decided by citizens, and in both the state is missing the piece that answers the question.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The word is "phone." Jackson County DA Angel Myers McIlrath has told the public a grand jury will get everything her office gathered in the Nolan Wells case, and she hasn't said that word since the family put the device on a four-day window. Jennifer Coffindaffer, a 25-year FBI veteran, joins Tony Brueski on the evidence nobody has opened.Everything loud about this case rests on it. Nolan's mother says his July 4 texts and pictures had been wiped when she got the phone from his friends. The friends insist no one touched it. An extraction would expose deletions, timestamps, and any login around the hours he went missing. Seven weeks on, the phone sits with the family and no examiner has touched it.A joint exam at the Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College lab was agreed July 15 and never scheduled. A 48-hour deadline from the DA followed on August 12, with the parents away. The family countered on August 17 with August 18 through 21. No exam has been announced.Coffindaffer's 25 years in the Bureau aim the questions at the system. The sheriff announced no foul play on day two, ahead of any autopsy, and never requested the phone. A congressional caucus, the NAACP, and Al Sharpton all moved before a single test was run. The three friends gave the FBI their own devices without being asked twice.The family's subpoenas to Snapchat, Meta, TikTok, WhatsApp, and Life360 seek login and IP histories. Those logs may answer the wipe question before the phone does.No one has been arrested. The friends deny erasing anything. The state has its autopsy and its toxicology. The last piece is the one nobody will pick up.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Not in the first week. Two days after Nolan Wells vanished on Horn Island, and before any autopsy, the Jackson County sheriff's office declared there was no foul play. Nolan's phone was with his family by then, and no agency had requested it. On Hidden Killers Live, ex-FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer and Tony Brueski take on seven weeks of an unexamined phone.The claim driving this case is that somebody wiped it. Nolan's mother got the device back from his friends within days and says the Snapchat accounts were empty and texts had vanished. The friends maintain they never touched it. A single extraction settles that. Nobody has performed one.Prosecutors and the family shook hands on a joint exam July 15, at a community college lab, with the FBI as a maybe. No date ever followed. The DA's 48-hour demand landed August 12 with the parents traveling. The family's answer on August 17 was any day through the 21st, with 12 hours' notice. The DA's public statements since haven't mentioned the phone.Six questions for the chat. How does a test that ends the argument go unrun for seven weeks? If the DA never took custody of the phone, does her grand jury promise even include it? Did Congress, the NAACP, and Al Sharpton get ahead of the evidence? Could the family's subpoenas to five tech companies answer it first? The friends volunteered their own devices, so does anyone in power want this one opened?Nobody is charged and the friends reject the tampering claim. The state's autopsy and toxicology reports are complete. The live chat gets the floor on every one.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Lenny McAllister has been in rooms most people never occupy at the same time — CPAC and the NAACP, Americans for Prosperity and the ACLU, Tea Party events and the Essence Music Festival. That's exactly the point. The Pittsburgh commentator, CNN and Fox analyst, and one of the earliest prominent Black Republicans to emerge after 2008 joins Newt to discuss his new memoir and policy manifesto, A Venn Diagram of One: An American Story. McAllister traces his journey from college dropout and 24-year-old father to national media figure — a transformation sparked by the night he learned his father had been shot. He argues that the path back to a united America runs through three pillars every citizen deserves: security, empowerment, and opportunity. On America's 250th birthday, he believes the country's best second act is still ahead.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The NAACP has joined the legal fight in the case of Nolan Wells, the 18-year-old who went missing on the Fourth of July while boating with his all-white friend group off the coast of Mississippi. In a place like Mississippi, trust in local law enforcement can be threadbare. This is where organizations like the NAACP are crucial, to conduct independent investigations.

The Rickey Smiley Morning Show covered a mix of headline-making stories and heartfelt conversations, led by the long-awaited start of the Tupac Shakur murder trial. Prosecutors allege Duane “Keefe D” Davis orchestrated the 1996 killing as an act of retaliation, while the defense argues the case lacks hard evidence and questions the credibility of Davis’ previous public statements. The cast also discussed newly resurfaced footage of a teenage Beyoncé sitting on the lap of a music executive while speaking with Michael Jackson, a clip that has reignited conversations online about power dynamics in the music industry and how behaviors once viewed differently are now scrutinized through a modern lens. Meanwhile, fans were reminded that true love can look different for everyone as Oprah Winfrey and Stedman Graham recently made a rare public appearance together, quieting speculation about their relationship and highlighting a partnership that has lasted nearly four decades despite never marrying.

The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts session 6 on The Memoirs of Robert & Mabel Williams: African American Freedom, Armed Resistance, & International Solidarity. Moving forward from last week's analysis of his early military environment, we continue digging directly into the primary-source reality of Chapter 37. Recap & Deconstruction of North Carolina KKK & Cowardly Racist Violence: Last week, Williams described the hypocrisy and cowardice of black males insisting upon "nonviolent" approaches to dealing with White people, when black people are regularly violent with each other. "Many Black men concealed their unmanly timidity in a newly adorned cloak of pacifism. They had instantly developed split personalities. Black men who never hesitated to use violence against other Black men, and even against their women and children, suddenly started to preach of the glorious virtue and power of nonviolence and love" #100 We also heard about the cowardly behavior of the Klu Klux Klan. The Racists would call the Williams' household all throughout the night - making menacing, terrorist threats. Then when Williams located the source of the threatening calls and confronted the White Supremacists directly, they turned "yellow" and declined any sort of direct confrontation. Williams also told us about how unjust networking from White Supremacists made it impossible for him to secure employment. Some of the local Victims of Racism pitched in to give him $2 per week to "make ends meet." Williams also details being chastised by NAACP officials to desist from making contact with people born in or associated with area known as Cuba. Some black people believed that Fidel Castro and other so-called Cubans were a "red," "Communist" menace. #TheCOWS17Years #RobertAndMabelWilliams #MilitaryIntelligence #CounterRacism #RadioFreeDixie #GlobalWhiteSupremacy #RacialRealism #MonroeNC #Cuba #FOIA Call-In Number: 720.716.7300 Code: 564943#
