FFR 127: Police Brutality and Black Lives Matter

Published: June 3, 2020, 9 a.m.

b'This week\\u2019s podcast was recorded on May 31, 2020. We won\\u2019t be discussing a new piece of media; we\\u2019re discussing a nation at war. Over the past week, we have watched as righteous protests rise in the wake of the Minneapolis police murder of George Floyd\\u2014and the deaths of many other black people including Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and Tony McDade. In response, the white supremacist American state apparatus has activated violently. Today, we want to share with you some of what we\\u2019ve seen, resources that might help you take action, and ways to make sense of some of the conflicting narratives we\\u2019re being fed.'
