Holly Street runs north-south through metro Denver. I've always lived within walking distance of Holly, but miles south of 34th and Holly in Park Hill. I knew about the Holly Shopping Center from growing up in Denver, and from working as a Denver prosecutor for sixteen years.    Julian Rubinstein has authored The Holly: Five Bullets, One Gun, and the Struggle to Save an American Neighborhood. It's a compelling story about former gang member Terrence Roberts and the history of Park Hill, Denver, gangs, cops and USA. There's never been a book quite like this about Denver.   Bill Buckley was a legendary Denver Chief Deputy DA who prosecuted for 26 years and showed me some ropes. Buckley reminisces about mean streets of Denver, including his responding to the 12-10-75 murder of DPD Homicide Detective Don DeBruno on Broadway. We talk about Denver crimes back in the day.   Buckley prosecuted 56 murder cases including the United Bank Massacre (Father's Day 1991), also on Broadway. Ex DPD Sgt. Jim King was put on trial and acquitted but Buckley still argues King's guilty. James Lowe was found guilty of horrible 6-26-79 murder on West Quincy Avenue at Pinehurst CC in Denver, a case Buckley brings to dramatic life.    Troubadour Dave Gunders sings sweet sad song about leaving one's homeland, chased out by events. Louisiana Goodbye speaks of lost communities and struggles to reclaim homes. Some seek to reclaim history. We discuss The Alamo and whole lot more. Key to history is to get the facts straight.   Peter Boyles rarely gets his facts straight. In a further takedown of this bad historian, we play sound of Boyles claiming governmental treatment of Christian baker Jack Phillips is Nazi-like. But Boyles lies. His views are skewed. We've got the sound.   Rundown -   Julian Rubinstein - 02:25   Bill Buckley in Craig's Lawyers' Lounge - 01:00:34   Dave Gunders - 02:12:49   Craig takes on Boyles' bigotry - 02:34:22  

On Sept. 25, 1957, the common goal for the nine students entering Central High School was to receive the same educational opportunities afforded white people The majority of the country only knows the name Little Rock Nine, not Ernest Green, Elizabeth Eckford, Jefferson Thomas, Dr. Terrence Roberts, Carlotta Walls Lanier, Minnijean Brown Trickey, Gloria Ray Karlmark, Thelma Mothershed-Wair, and Melba Pattillo Beals.    However, these brave Nine and their families endured the unrelenting rage of the majority of white people in Little Rock, Arkansas to break down the segregated wall of Central High School. We begin with thoughts from Carlotta Walls LaNier. Next The Little Rock Nine.

In "Well Read," host and journalist Justin Chapman provides analysis on news, politics, arts, and culture and interviews guests about their projects and how the COVID-19 pandemic is impacting their lives. Featuring segments by Senior Influencer Correspondent, @BradtheInfluencer, and Senior Toddler Correspondent, Sienna. Justin also provides recommendations for good reads in each episode. In Episode Ten, Justin interviews Dr. Terrence Roberts, a member of the Little Rock Nine. In 1957, three years after the Supreme Court declared segregated schools unconstitutional in Brown vs. Board of Education, nine African American students were enrolled in the previously whites-only Little Rock Central High School in Arkansas. The students were initially prevented from entering the school by hordes of angry, racist protestors and the Arkansas National Guard, which was deployed by Governor Orval Faubus. President Dwight Eisenhower had to call in federal troops to escort the Little Rock Nine into the school. One of those nine students was Terrence Roberts, now a management consultant and author who has lived in Pasadena for more than 30 years. Everyone go vote!
