  • Frey Vs. Klobuchar A Tale of Two Cities

    Episode 4 is about the immediate actions and comments of Minneapolis Mayor Frey in the wake of the death of George Floyd. Mayor Frey was quick, decisive, and refreshing in his candid comments. This is how a politician should sound when it comes to Police Brutality! This is compared to the previous inaction of former Prosecutor Amy Klobuchar who served as the County Attorney of Hennepin County, MN where Minneapolis is. Senator Klobuchar is seeking the VP nomination to join a ticket with Vice President Biden just a week after he claimed your not Black if you support him when she previously had a chance to stop the officer who ultimately killed George Floyd.

  • Karen & Police Brutality

    Episode 3 discusses the Central Park "Karen" and how calling the police is used as a weapon, often against Black people. Then once the police are on the scene often we get brazen police brutality with no regard for the rights and lives of the disproportionately Black citizen. It's an exhausting, enraging conversation that is unfortunately made relevant every few weeks.
