Description
In this episode we collaborated with Rev Left Radio to discuss the history of institutional racism and violence within the Philadelphia Police Department in the latter half of the 20th Century culminating, but not ending, with the city's bombing of MOVE members and the destruction of over 60 homes in West Philadelphia in 1985. We encourage people to engage and grapple with this recent history of racist state violence and to learn more about the MOVE organization and support them in their ongoing struggles. Below are some ways that people can support MOVE members today: Ramona Africa's GoFundMe Donate To The MOVE 9 Legal Fund Support MOVE (Onamove.com) Solidarity to Brett/Rev Left Radio for all their work recording and editing and contributing to this collaboration, we look forward to working together with them in the future.
