Sparked by the fatal police shooting of 23-year-old Sylville Smith, a riot broke out in Milwaukee’s Sherman Park neighborhood in August 2016. The violence and pain of those three days are the backdrop for Derrick Harriell’s Edgar Award-winning short story, “There’s a Riot Goin’ On.” Contributor Andy Turner recently talked to Harriell, a Sherman Park native. He’s also a celebrated poet and assistant professor of English and African American Studies at the University of Mississippi.

I had the privilege of sitting down in person with Juli and Maanaan, two founders and key leaders in Milwaukee’s Sherman Phoenix project.   The Sherman Phoenix is an incredible initiative in one of the most segregated neighborhoods in Milwaukee, Sherman Park. It started after the tragic fatal shooting of Sylville Smith. Out of outrage and tragedy, the community came together to rise out of the ashes and create the Sherman Phoenix- an entrepreneurial hub in the heart of the neighborhood that empowers local business owners.   Tune into this episode to hear:   How the Sherman Phoenix has transformed one of the historically most difficult neighborhoods in Milwaukee, and what it means to the community The challenges of taking on such a rapidly growing project (who else can relate to that?!) What other cities going through racial segregation can adapt from this incredible initiative

In August 2016, 23-year old Sylville Smith was shot by District 7 Officer Dominique Heaggan. Officer Lawson Murrell was long-interested in improving the relationship between the police and the black community. He’s now the Milwaukee Police Department's District 7 Community Liaison Officer. And at the memorial for Sylville Smith on 44th and Auer, he’s facing the first major test of his new role. And as a black police officer, he’s stuck in an especially tough position.

On August 13th , all eyes turned to Milwaukee’s Sherman Park neighborhood . Protesters jumped on police cars and set buildings on fire, outraged over the police shooting of Sylville Smith. Vaun Mayes-Bey and a group of organizers had been in the area all summer, long before the news crews came. Vaun works with Program the Parks to provide activities and food to the teenagers who congregate in Sherman Park, outside of the Boys & Girls Club. Vaun says the work they’re doing is not only fun for the teens, it’s also making the park safer and keeping kids out of the grip of law enforcement. But after the unrest, a 6 pm park curfew made it harder to do their job.

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 As predictable as mosquitos and sun burned Whites in August, the police killing of a black male, Sylville Smith, provoked days of unrest and destruction in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Seeing as this month is the 4th anniversary of the police killing of Mark Duggan and the subsequent "London Riots" as well as the Marikana mining massacre in South Africa, no one should be bewildered by these routine disturbances. Another recurring theme on the global plantation is White liars. US Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte is suspected of fabricating a grizzly tale where he and three other athletes were robbed at gun point in Brazil. Video footage of the alleged mugging has been released; however, Lochte has still garnered a high level of sympathy and support. Conversely, film maker Nate Parker, who's feature-length film on counter-terrorist Nat Turner is slated to be released later this year, has been badgered by allegations that he raped a White Woman while attending Penn State University. Parker was tried and acquitted for this sexual assault nearly 20 years ago, but this hasn't stopped a campaign to boycott his film and impale his career. #RacismIsNotAPrivilege INVEST in The COWS - paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p

Eugene Puryear, host of Radio Sputnik's By Any Means Necessary, joins the show.Hillary Clinton has been on an offensive to capture blue collar votes in swing states for her campaign for the White House.
