From Alton Sterling in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, to Stephon Clark in Sacramento, California police continue to kill unarmed black men with impunity and no accountability. On our show today we’ll speak with Joseph Williams, a member of Black Lives Matter Los Angeles who just returned from Sacramento where protests have rocked the city. Then, political prisoner and award winning journalist Mumia Abu Jamal shares his commentary about the recent gun control protests. And finally, Rebekah Spicuglia joins us to share the story of her 17-year old son Oscar Daniel Joaquin who was brutally murdered in an MS-13 related attack three years ago. Spicuglia takes issue with Donald Trump’s use of MS-13 to justify mass deportations and a crackdown on immigrant rights.
