Before we start rest in peace to Eric Garner, Michael Brown, Laquan McDonald, Tamir Rice, Walter Scott, Freddie Gray, Jamar Clark, Alton Sterling, Philandro Castile, Stephon Clark, Botham Jean, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and George Floyd. All of their lives taken by the very people who swore to protect them, the Police. This is short list believe it or not, because for decades this has been an ongoing trend between the Police forces of America and our black brothers and sisters. It's the same old story, a black man/woman killed by a police officer and the officer goes free. The most recent murder of George Floyd has sparked protests all over the world, but here in the US many of those protests were met with a brutal police reaction that has led to countless people fighting back. Other far right and far left radical groups have infiltrated the movement for change, and have instigated looting and destruction, taking away our message that we as a people are sick and tired of being marginalized, brutalized and murdered in cold blood because the color of our skin. One of the bros had the courage to step up and go protesting this past Sunday and he opens up about his experience. We also discuss what happens going forward. Does change happen? Do we come together as a people and force the change? Or do we return to the norm of a militarized police force brutalizing its black citizens with impunity? What the bros do agree on is it can't just be blacks vs racists, it needs to be the people vs racists. Jump in and enjoy.
