Cerise Castle -A History of Violence Podcast

Just started listening to this new podcast called “A Tradition of Violence” by Cerise Castle about the gangs embedded in the LA County Sheriff’s  department.

Action: Listen to and share the show

I remember hearing about her back in 2021 and she had been reporting on this for several years making herself a target by LA Cops who like most police departments in the US serve wealthy elites and to keep everyday people in check so we don’t revolt. Police have been murdering Black folks specifically for decades but until recently the public rarely knew unless it was caught on film. From NYPD to LA, cops are not the solution to safety yall, we are. All the billions that they get paid should be going to our public schools, public hospitals, jobs, and community based solutions that will actually make the communities they claim to protect safer.

Much respect and props to Cerise for continuing the legacy of journalism that exposes evils like this that are foundational to the US government’s system of control. Follow and protect her yall.

Police Gangs of LA

This shit is ill, and I’ve heard the same about the NYPD. Best believe that I support getting rid of the entire system of policing as it stands today in the US. no amount of reform will change how they bully, disrespect, target, and murder folks here; especially Black folks, people of color, mentally ill people, and poor people. We need to take the millions each major urban city spends on policing and put it into whhat would actually help people, reduce crime, etc. Quality housing, education, mental and physical health care, jobs.
You see this and understand why The Black Panther Party for Self Defense was created. Peep this post from a few years ago:
