On the Did You Know segment… which is the framework for today’s show. Sunni and Lisa discuss current events. Re-Imagining the Police: Responding to Mental Health Crisis, San Francisco’s The Caren Act, The Upcoming Election: BIPOC and Voting, Active Allyship in Action!
On this episode, Lisa and Sunni discuss yet another very recent killing of a black man - this time in Philadelphia, the victim’s name is Walter Wallace Jr. who was having a Mental Health Crisis. His family called for intervention, instead, their son was killed right in front of them! *Lawd Geezus*
Sunni is uber expressive regarding the continued assault on men of color and the BIPOC population PeriodT. Discussing the differences between the arresting officers and their interactions with white people versus their interaction with minorities. Both Lisa and Sunni agree, something has got to give! *fcuk*
These ladies are excited to know that San Francisco is aggressively making strides to enact legislation that will ensure the criminalization of calls to the police based on LIES and RACISM. *sing it with me* You about to lose your job (and go to jail)!
There is light at the end of the tunnel, discussion around the opportunity to be an “Active Ally” in real life is based on Keraun Harris’ encounter with a white woman and her camera. Chime in on our facebook page… Active Allyship…it’s more than a #hashtag! Well, don’t just chime in, follow us as well *smile*
