"Straight Words With Naba'a Richard Muhammad, Bj Murphy, and James G. Muhammad" continued its move into the digital space May 27 with our discussion, "Straight Words: “Cops, Black Women & Abuse: Not Even Cadets Are Safe" on X/Twitter Spaces. We are live Tuesday nights, 9pm to Midnight Central, on X/Twitter Spaces.
Cariol Horne, a Black officer who was assaulted and fired from the Buffalo, N.Y., police force for stopping a White officer from choking a handcuffed Black man in 2006. Her pension was taken and eventually restored but she still works for justice and is still targeted by Buffalo PD. She tells her amazing story of love, strength, suffering, the railroading of her son on trumped up charges, the Buffalo PD's efforts to destroy her and her family and her continued triumphs and struggle.
We heard about Buffalo PD and its long history of abusing Black women, men and children.
We started out focusing on a Pro Publica story about Alexis Byrd Maxey, who suffered sexual harassment at the Chicago Police Academy, was met with a wall of lies when she tried to report wrongdoing and was fired from the academy.
We expanded that discussion into the abuses heaped on Black female officers and cadets, Black women in general, Black families and our community, the current climate and where things are headed.
Our other guests:
Rev. Corine Mack, who leads the NAACP Chapter in Charlotte, N.C., and a longtime and fearless fighter for our people for justice and progress.
Beatrice X and Uncle Bobby (Cephus X Johnson) of the Love Not Blood Campaign, https://lovenotbloodcampaign.com, who have have served hundreds of families dealing with police violence and its impact, advocating for, lobbying for, and writing legislation to hold cops accountable, and helping families fight for justice.
Here these incredible stories and analysis about what we are facing and what we need to do.
