Hey gang. 

Tennessee Bill 8005 is a mean little piece of work and I make a run through it in this episode. 

We also highlight a transphobic attack by some so called brothas on trans woman, Eden The Doll. 

They attacked and robbed these folks and it's some wack bullshit to me.  

You ain't a down brotha if you out here harming trans women.  Step your justice game up and learn how to comrade. 

The homey from twitter linked us up to an article regarding using racist tropes and the "I'm White And I Say So" claus regarding George Floyd.

Hey gang.

Phoenix Calida is having a sit down with @KateDAdamo.

They discussed the #EarnItAct and how this legislation targets sex workers, trafficked people, and will erode civil liberties. Also information about how to set up a meeting with the staff of a state representative, how to call an elected official and engage in the politcal process. If you want to know how sex workers rights imapact  other marginalized communities, this episode covers it.

Hey gang. 

Things are looking positive as far as us being able to pack up and move to Michigan. 

This episode opens with the really bad story out of Brazil and we move into Climate Change and some good old fashioned racism from there. 

It's very interesting how this Racist White Women stays very focused on her intention to Criminalize this Black Man.  

His vibe with the Black cop on the scene is extra awkward and it makes for fun littel segment to have in our archives.

Hey gang. 

Phoenix And William riff about trying to move to a different state, cover a bit of  fun news to get our feet back in and we let a tangent take us into seeing what folks are talking about with this Megan Stallion and Cardi B record. 

We go in wiht our bias and what we already like and don't like but really try to check the record out.

PHOENIX AND WILLIAM LIVE FROM GRAND RAPIDS MICHIGAN.

SWOP Behind Bars uses a harm reduction framework to offer various resources, community-building projects, educational programs, and advocacy to end violence and stigma against sex workers in the criminal justice system.  This includes those currently incarcerated and those seeking re-entry services.

Just months after Tennessee Governor Bill Lee signed a new bill prohibiting gay couples from adopting, the state is getting a new foster care organization exclusively serving LGBTQ+ homeless youth.

True You TN is in the beginning stages of opening, having just acquired their 501(c)3 and preparing to fundraise. The group, founded by Executive Director Stephanie Lowe, will build a group home for LGBTQ+ teens and youth and recently moved into their first office space.

True You will be the first group home to serve exclusively LGBTQ+ youth in the state, working to help the nearly 40 percent of homeless youth who identify as queer. Lowe said her own past drove her to create the organization, and although she has reconciled with her family, her coming out at 30 years old didn’t go as planned.

Chelsey Sprengeler writes:

Last month, some of us were given flack for questioning the “defund police” movement. Our suspicion was that liberals that have no interest in changing the racist system at large (particularly white liberals who have such a large stake in it) have ulterior motives in focusing on police *only*.

We predicted the growth of privatized police force would be the backhanded result of defunding public police because the powerful institutions supporting “defunding” have no interest in allowing the private and non-profit sectors to be separated from the enforcement arm of this capitalist system. The bar will be set even lower for accountability from police, in that case.

And here we are.

“It sounds like you’re getting rid of the police and you’re hiring your own private security force. So what we’re about to have is a bunch of [George] Zimmermans walking around making sure our little Trayvon Martins don’t get out of line,” said Whittier Elementary associate educator Rajel Johnson, who is also the father of a Whittier second-grader.

In an opening statement, Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum asked for "extraordinary relief'' from the court, saying, "these actions if not restrained will further escalate. They are in fact escalating." Though the federal officers are ostensibly protecting public property, they must stop pursuing "peaceful unarmed citizens through city streets," using unlawful tactics to intimidate protesters, she said

It seems like such a simple question: How hot is Earth going to get? Yet for 40 years, climate scientists have repeated the same unsatisfying answer: If humans double atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) from preindustrial levels, the planet will eventually warm between 1.5°C and 4.5°C—a temperature range that encompasses everything from a merely troubling rise to a catastrophic one.
