This month we are introducing a new series -- Consider the Following. A debate series administered to engage principled disagreements throughout the Black left and the sociopolitical Black world. Typically, our pod is predicated upon debunking quantifiable myths (propaganda) said about Black people. However, this series expands beyond fact and fiction to promote a discourse that works to clarify principled disagreements. This series will air every so often in combination with our normal episode format.
The resolution for this month is "Community Control of the Police is Inconsistent with Police Abolition." We were unable to create the debate format we originally had planned due to unforeseen circumstances but we still built a great discussion/debate for our first attempt. For this episode, we invited Max Rameau of Pan African Community Action and Kamau Franklin of Community Movement Builders to answer challenging questions about CCOP and Police Abolition.
