I discuss Rodney King, Joaquín Guzman aka "El Chapo," George Floyd, dehumanization, Hannah Arendt's Banality of Evil, the art of shilling for Trump (aka "minionism"), and lots more.You can find clips and images of the "Venezuelan Gang deportations" here. Support the show

Send us a textRev. Martin Luther King Jr. once said that "Riots are the language of the unheard" and in April of 1992, the black community in Los Angeles felt very unheard. The Previous year in 1991, 25 year old Rodney Glen King had been involved in a high speed chase. Noticing the spot light from a helicopter, Rodney realized that things had quickly gotten out of hand and, ended up pulling off Interstate 201, onto the right hand shoulder of Foothill Blvd. What followed was caught on video, by a nearby resident named George Holliday..... and the world would see one of the most horrific beatings, that did not result in death. By some miracle, Rodney was not killed, but doctors would say that some of his bones had been so pulverized that the looked like grains of sand...13 days after this, a 15 year old black girl named Latasha Harlins, at the request of her grandmother, had gone into a corner store to pick up some orange juice for her and her siblings, Latasha walked walked to the front counter with $2 in hand to pay for the 1.79 orange juice, again, this interaction was caught on film, the store owner seemed to have believed Latasha was going to steal the juice, despite the cash in her hand, after a short but intense interaction with the store owner, Latasha tried to walk away. The store owner would pull out her gun, and end the life of a 15 year old child. When Latasha's killer got off, with community service and a fine, the black community was horrified, and when the 4 officers who beat Rodney, nearly to death, were acquitted, they had had enough, and with in minutes the riots would begin. They would last for 6 days, leaving some neighbourhood, reduced to rubble.This is the case of the 1992 LA Riots.Support the showIf you're interested in receiving bonus episodes, early release dates, an everything scary sticker and ‘thank you' as well as a shout out on our regular feed!

What is lacking in today’s chaotic world is Emotional Intelligence. People can’t move through conflict, they can’t forgive, never forget, and keep a pound of flesh and a record of wrong. We won’t socialize with someone who votes differently than we do, and we judge others by their external features; The color of the skin, their sexual preference, who they vote for! It is a mess! To quote Rodney King, “Can’t we all just get a long?” What is lacking is EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE. Emotional intelligence is now seen as a “need to have” ingredient in the makeup of leaders. One of the early purveyors of the concept of EQ (Emotional Intelligence), Dan Goleman says this about EQ: “Without emotional intelligence, a person can have the best training in the world, an incisive, analytical mind, and an endless supply of smart ideas, but he still won’t make a great leader.” Goleman identified five elements of our make-up that we could attribute to emotional intelligence: 1-Self Awareness – How much do we understand about our own moods, states, and emotions. 2-Self Regulation – How good are we at thinking before we act? 3- Motivation – How strong is your desire to relentlessly pursue your goals? 4-Empathy – How easy do we find it to see another person’s point of view? How much do we understand about the emotional make-up of other people? 5-Social Skills – How easily are you able to build rapport and find common ground to effectively manage your relationships? In today’s hour of power Mr. Black will also share with you 2 tools that he uses to help others GROW THEIR EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE: Epigenetics and Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) Warriors it is time to get EQUIPPED- Like IT MATTERS!

Detective Rick Jackson, a decorated LAPD detective and a key inspiration in the development of Harry Bosch, delivers a shocking and immersive look into the one case he could never let go. In June 1990, Ronald Baker, a straight-A UCLA student, was found repeatedly stabbed to death in a tunnel near Spahn Ranch, where Charles Manson and his followers once lived. Shortly thereafter, Detective Rick Jackson and his partner, Frank Garcia, were assigned the case. Yet the facts made no sense. Who would have a motive to kill Ron Baker in such a grisly manner? Was the proximity to the Manson ranch related to the murder? And what about the pentagram pendant Ron wore around his neck? Jackson and Garcia soon focused their investigation on Baker's two male roommates, one black, and one white. What emerges is at once a story of confounding betrayal and cold-hearted intentions, as well as a larger portrait of an embattled Los Angeles, a city in the grip of the Satanic Panic and grappling with questions of racial injustice and police brutality in the wake of Rodney King. Rick Jackson, the now-retired police detective who helped inspire Michael Connelly's beloved Harry Bosch, along with co-writer, Matthew McGough, take us through the events as he and his partner experienced them, piecing together the truth with each emerging clue. Black Tunnel White Magic is the true story of a murder in cold blood, deception and betrayal, and a city at the brink, set forth by the only man who could tell it.

WARNING TO PARENTS: The content of this episode contains conversations about cultural topics that young people may not be ready to hear. If listening with children, please note it could create uncomfortable conversations. Monique Duson grew up amid the challenges of a crime-affected neighborhood and the 1992 Rodney King riots. Her upbringing shaped her understanding of race and justice, but it was her faith that led her to found the Center for Biblical Unity. Monique's mission is to promote a vision for racial healing rooted in the Gospel, challenging cultural narratives with biblical truth. In this conversation, Monique shares her passion for equipping young people with the hope of Christ and dispels misconceptions about prejudice, justice, and humanity.

Guest: Rick Smith, CEO & Founder of Axon (formerly TASER)Being a founder-CEO is a “unique superpower,” says Axon's Rick Smith: People like him get a longer leash from the board to try things that outside CEOs might not.“My job is to push risk into the organization,” Rick says. “If there's a project with a 50 percent chance of success, a 50 percent chance of failure, but it's going to pay 100 to 1, any finance person will tell you, you should take that bet all day long.”One of those bets was the transition from running a weapons company called TASER into a broader public safety firm called Axon, which makes cloud-supported body cameras fro police, tactical drones, AI records management software and more. “If we never have a product failure, then we're not taking risks anymore and we're going to end up getting disrupted,” Rick says.Chapters:(01:09) - Tasers vs. guns (03:35) - Axon's growth (07:09) - Biggest surprises (09:33) - How TASER got started (13:11) - Reinventing the taser (17:24) - A humiliating launch (23:33) - Rick's family (26:14) - The Auto Taser failure (30:21) - The darkest days (34:26) - Hans Marrero (37:25) - Family and burnout (42:49) - Rick's family (45:49) - Pivoting the business (51:37) - Axon body cameras (53:46) - Axon's current products (58:08) - Re-educating the cops (01:02:09) - Pushing risk (01:05:44) - Competing with the gun (01:10:16) - Exponential stock plans (01:14:17) - Who Axon is hiring (01:14:46) - What “grit” means to Rick Mentioned in this episode: UnitedHealthcare and Brian Thompson, Harvard University, human-machine interfaces, Star Wars, Timecop, Star Trek, Jack Cover, Project Apollo, Ed Owen; the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms; Tom Smith, Rodney King, the Sharper Image, Steve Filmer, Phil Smith, Silicon Valley Bank, Emil Michael, Bob Kagle, Benchmark, Norwest Ventures, Molly Wuthrich, Josh Isner, The Terminator, Ferrari, Richard Branson, Burning Man, Steve Jobs, Brenda Smith, Hadi Partovi, Amazon AWS, Microsoft, DraftOne, Ambience Health, OpenAI, Mark Zuckerberg, Michael Brown, Computer Aided Dispatch, Elon Musk and SpaceX, and Luke Larson.Links:Connect with RickTwitterLinkedInConnect with JoubinTwitterLinkedInEmail: grit@kleinerperkins.com Learn more about Kleiner PerkinsThis episode was edited by Eric Johnson from LightningPod.fm

I warned people years ago about a "flashpoint" in Los Angeles that would rage across SoCal like a wildfire ripping residents into anarchy and chaos beyond the Watts and Rodney King riots...the figurative and literal flashpoint has arrived. My deeper concern is that the predicted and pending anarchy and chaos in LA could be a flashpoint for the whole country. Stay aware and on alert.*Photo Credit: "Thompson Fire" by Ron Jones

In the next clip of our exclusive interview with Fox 11 investigative reporter Chris Blatchford, the journalist recalls his very first day at Fox 11 News, an unforgettable moment in history. It was April 29, 1992, the day the Rodney King riots erupted in Los Angeles, plunging the city into chaos and unrest. Blatchford vividly recounts the harrowing experience of being surrounded by rioters while on assignment. The news van he was in shook violently as tensions escalated, and for a brief moment, he believed he wouldn't make it out alive. Just as fear turned to resignation, an unexpected hero emerged, a police officer who risked everything to pull the news crew to safety. The veteran reporter's raw and powerful recollection offers an unparalleled view into one of the most volatile weeks in Los Angeles history. His fearless coverage of the riots not only captivated the nation but also earned him widespread acclaim, including a personal visit from Fox CEO Rupert Murdoch.

[SEGMENT 2-1] Observations Israel is at war with Iran; and who knows what happens next in that conflict All I know is Iran is in deep kimche, because supposedly Israel knocked out most of their defense systems. We are still sending money to Ukraine, but we have no updates on progress. The world is a mess. Have you seen the video where Trudeau sits down at a table, and China's president is looking at his phone and won't acknowledge him. The president of Brazil ignores him, as he tries to shake his hand.   Mitch McConnell is stepping down. Did you see him fall on a stage recently. He looks as bad as Biden Laura Loomer says the RINOs in the Senate want somebody who will do what McConnell did and work against Trump…        [SEGMENT 2-2] Trump the Central Park Five and OJ     I asked this question a while back, “What if Nicole Simpson were white?” Here's another question, “What if OJ were white?   If Nicole Brown-Simpson had been Black instead of white, the O.J. Simpson case would likely have been perceived very differently, both in the media and within American society. Speculating on this hypothetical scenario, there are a few key aspects that would shape how the trial might have unfolded in terms of public sentiment and racial dynamics.Racial Dynamics and Public Perception: The original O.J. Simpson case was already racially charged, as many Black Americans viewed Simpson as a symbol of triumph over systemic racism in the justice system, while many white Americans saw the trial as a clear case of guilt obscured by racial tension. Had Nicole been Black, the racial polarization may have shifted. Black and white communities might not have been as divided over Simpson's guilt or innocence, as the racial dimension that fueled such passionate reactions may not have existed in the same way.Media Coverage: The media played a significant role in shaping how the O.J. Simpson trial was perceived. Nicole Brown-Simpson's whiteness was central to how the case was framed, amplifying the notion of a Black man allegedly murdering a white woman, a narrative historically loaded with racialized fears and stereotypes. If Nicole were Black, the media may not have sensationalized the trial in the same way. The case might not have received the same level of attention, or the racial undertones would likely be different, potentially focusing more on issues within the Black community rather than interracial tensions.Race and Justice System Critique: The case spotlighted deep mistrust between Black Americans and the criminal justice system, with many believing Simpson was being unfairly targeted due to his race. If Nicole were Black, this critique of the system may have been less pronounced, as the racial dimension that fueled the "us vs. them" narrative might not have been as intense. The focus may have been more on domestic violence or celebrity culture than systemic racism.Historical Precedent: Historically, cases involving Black victims of crime, especially when committed by fellow Black individuals, have received less attention from the media and the public. It's possible that if Nicole had been Black, the case might not have reached the fever pitch of public interest that it did. Similarly, the reactions from both the defense and prosecution may have played out in a less racially charged environment.Some commentators and researchers have speculated on these hypothetical changes to the Simpson trial. For instance, in various discussions of race and media, analysts point to how white women victims often receive more sympathetic media portrayals and heightened public interest. This dynamic might have been different if Nicole had been Black, perhaps leading to less of a "racial trial of the century" moment and more of a celebrity-focused or gendered case. However, no significant academic work has tackled this exact hypothetical in depth. Still, the role of race in the justice system and media perceptions has been explored widely in other contexts. Authors like Patricia J. Williams and Ta-Nehisi Coates have written about how race impacts the narrative around criminal cases, especially when it involves white female victims and Black male defendants. This thought experiment is an extension of how deeply ingrained racial dynamics in America influence the interpretation of high-profile legal cases, especially those involving interracial conflict or violence.     Speculating on how the O.J. Simpson case would have unfolded if O.J. were white instead of Black introduces a fascinating exploration of race, celebrity, and the justice system. If Simpson had been white, several key aspects of the trial would likely have been dramatically different, particularly in how the media, the public, and the jury approached the case. 1. Public Perception and Racial Polarization One of the most defining features of the O.J. Simpson trial was the racial divide in how it was perceived. Black Americans largely viewed Simpson as a victim of systemic racism, while many white Americans saw it as a clear-cut case of guilt. If Simpson were white, this polarization may not have existed in the same way. The trial might have been less about race and more about the intersection of celebrity culture and domestic violence. Without the racial dimension, it is likely that Black communities wouldn't have rallied behind Simpson in the same way, and white Americans would not have perceived the trial as an example of a flawed justice system letting a guilty man go free based on racial issues. 2. Media Sensationalism The media played a huge role in portraying the case as a battle between racial justice and privilege. The dynamic of a famous Black man allegedly murdering his white ex-wife was key to the media frenzy. Had Simpson been white, the racial implications wouldn't have driven the narrative. Instead, the media might have focused more on Simpson's status as a celebrity or the brutal nature of the crime. Celebrity trials often attract media attention, but the racial tension added fuel to the fire in this case. Without it, the trial would likely have still been highly publicized, but the sensationalism would have centered on Simpson's fame and wealth rather than his race. 3. The Jury's Decision The racial composition of the jury was another critical element of the O.J. Simpson trial. In the actual case, the jury was predominantly Black, and race played a significant role in how they viewed the trial. If Simpson had been white, the jury's racial makeup would not have had the same implications, and the dynamics of the trial might have focused more on gender issues, such as domestic violence, rather than race. The defense's strategy, which leaned heavily on accusations of racism within the LAPD, particularly regarding Mark Fuhrman's testimony, would not have been as effective if Simpson were white. The defense might have been forced to focus more on evidence manipulation or police incompetence rather than race-based arguments, which could have led to a different outcome. 4. Race and the Justice System The O.J. Simpson trial came at a time when racial tensions in America, particularly between Black communities and the police, were at a boiling point. Just a few years after the Rodney King beating and the L.A. riots, the trial tapped into deep-seated frustrations within the Black community regarding police brutality and systemic racism. If Simpson had been white, it is possible that the case would not have become such a lightning rod for conversations about race in America. Speculation and Commentary There has been some commentary regarding how the case might have been different if O.J. Simpson were white. Though no large academic pieces tackle this hypothetical directly, some legal analysts and social commentators have suggested that the racial dynamics significantly influenced how the public, media, and legal teams approached the trial. If Simpson were white, the media focus would have likely shifted to Simpson's celebrity status, wealth, and fame, without the same focus on systemic racism or police misconduct. While it's difficult to point to specific sources that deeply speculate on this hypothetical, there have been discussions in broader analyses of the case that recognize the pivotal role race played in shaping the outcome and the broader narrative around the trial. Conclusion Had O.J. Simpson been white, the trial would likely have been less about racial injustice and more about celebrity privilege or domestic violence. The media would have framed the story differently, and the defense would not have been able to rely on accusations of systemic racism to the same extent. Without the racial polarization, the outcome of the trial might have shifted, and the case wouldn't have become the cultural phenomenon it was. The O.J. Simpson trial, as we know it, is inseparable from the racial tensions that defined it.    [SEGMENT 2-3] Crime stats 1   The EXPERTS reported that crime went down under Biden. Down SIGNIFICANTLY. Meanwhile, people like me look at the REAL information and found that major cities had NOT REPORTED to the FBI, which would undoubtedly alter the report. Yes, I used LOGIC AND COMMON SENSE, did the math…IN MY HEAD, then looked at all the reports of criminal activity and determined that STATISTICALLY, there is (1) no way Biden won the 2020 election, and (2) no way crime went DOWN!1.     Keep in mind, the same people reporting crimes stats are the ones telling you that…2.     Illegals are less violent than Americans And they are cost-positive to the economy Fat meat and greasy and cobras make good house pets!!

That is prejudice, hatred, negativism that comes from the highest points across America. She told us then with the candor that comes with old age, she said, and I found myself asking Medgar in the conversations that I have with him. Is this really what's happening again in this country? And asking for guidance because I don't mind admitting this to the press, I'm a little weary at this point.” Fighting for justice “Black people are born into a situation in which we are forced to defend, assert, and constantly so, our humanity. And that is in the midst of constant attacks on our humanity, big and small, whether it is the vicarious suffering that we see when there's another cell phone video of a black person being brutalized by law enforcement, whether it is, you know, We all have memories of the first time we were called the N word, uh, whether it is going into the workplace and wondering if you didn't get that raise or you were passed over for that promotion, if it had anything to do with the color of your skin, even subconsciously.

And when that is taken away from me because of oppression and injustice, I have this spirit within me to resist.” “The spirit of justice gives us that resilience, that strength to become determined all over again.

On the evening of November 20th 2024 a young Irish-American student named Devin Reardon was at his University campus in Florida. Alarms started to go off, at first one and then every siren on the college grounds. Students were warned to get back to their dormitories and barricade the doors. What Devin didn't yet realise was that a gunman was roaming the campus and he was shooting Devin's fellow students. He and his two roommates pushed furniture against their door as shots rang out from the adjacent Library building. Devin scrambled for his mobile phone and called his mother who also lived in Florida. She switched on her TV and, to her horror witnessed the event being covered live on the news networks. Having shot a number of students the assailant was killed by police. Devin would never be the same again. What's more, the woman who he called that night, his mother Nadia Ramoutar had years before also nearly died at her own university in Florida. She was faced that November night in 2014 with the possibility that her son, like her, was in danger of losing his life on his own college campus at the same age she was when she herself almost died. What Devin and Nadia came to realise was that their traumatic attacks were not the end of their experience with violence but the very beginning. The aftermath of the attacks left wreckage in their lives which took years to cope with and it's a personal journey for both mother and son which continues today. Unfortunately their stories were not isolated. America, which had always had violence woven into the fabric of its society had seen a deepening and a darkening of its social problems. High profile violent events became ever more common place from the early 1980s with the shootings of John Lennon and Ronald Reagan through the Rodney King beating and subsequent riots, the Columbine school massacre, the killing of George Floyd in broad daylight by police, right up to the mass shootings of today which, chillingly, average almost two per day in the United States. The Documentary on One charts the lives of a mother and son whose experience mirrored the troubles their country was dealing with until they finally could take no more and left for the relative safety of Ireland. “In Search Of Safety"was narrated by Donal O'Herlihy It was produced by Donal O'Herlihy and Kathy Fox.

On January 29, 1992, Byron Page was getting ready to go to college and take his driver's exam. He had already been accepted into several schools, with more acceptance letters on the way. That afternoon, the 17-year-old decided to take the bus to his favorite movie and music store in West Hollywood, California. He never made it. Despite being a promising student with no issues in his personal life, Byron's case garnered very little attention in a city transfixed by the Rodney King trial. After a short investigation, police believed that he had met with foul play, but his case quickly went cold. Now, after 30 years, is there a chance that someone out there knows what happened to Byron Page?If anyone has any information on the disappearance of Byron Eric Page, please contact Detective Tamar Abraham at the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department at 323-890-5500.Buy the ebook! - And Then They Were Gone: True Stories of Those Who Went Missing and Never Came HomeSubmit a caseFind us everywhereGet episodes early and ad-free on PatreonMerch storeFor a full list of our sources, please visit our blogBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/and-then-they-were-gone--5360779/support.

"Freestyle 2: When They Go Low" challenges Michelle Obama's famous quote "When they go low, we go high" and explores how the Black community has shifted away from this philosophy. The episode examines instances where non-Black individuals and communities have engaged in disrespectful or harmful behavior, and how Black people have responded with even more forceful reactions. The podcast delves into the politics of respectability, resistance, and anti-Blackness, presenting examples of people of color and white individuals "going low" and the Black community responding by "going lower." Key cases discussed include Jasmine Crockett, the Montgomery Brawl, and OJ Simpson in the context of Rodney King. This thought-provoking episode aims to spark a conversation about the evolving strategies of resistance within the Black community and the rejection of respectability politics in the face of persistent racism and discrimination.

The girlies investigate our modern-day digital panopticon through an exploration on the history of surveillance in the US. From wiretapping to Watergate to hidden AirBnb spyware, Americans have been accustomed to and unsettled by being watched for decades. Digressions include the 2016 vibes and a pig named Heidi Klum. This episode was produced by Julia Hava and Eliza Mclamb and edited by Allison Hagan. Research assistance from Penelope Spurr. NOTE: This episode mentions the role of surveillance in cases of police brutality. We wanted to note that it was recorded before the horrific murder of Sonya Massey by the police — a tragic reminder, as mentioned in the episode, that surveillance alone is rarely enough to provoke justice. Our thoughts are with the Massey family.  SOURCES: 19th Century - The Origins of Surveillance A Brief History of Surveillance in America Airbnb Has a Hidden-Camera Problem CAN THE USE OF ‘NANNY CAMS' BE MORALLY JUSTIFIED?
