    Censorship in Music

    Listen in as I detail how censorship in music limits freedom of expression and free speech. I will work through a variety of examples mostly pulling from current examples like YNW Melly and Tay K. The end of the episode features an interview from the Today Show where Ice Cube details his time in NWA and his thoughts on censorship. Happy listening :)

  7. The RICO

    The RICO

    Listen in as I talk about the statute that ties organized crime, street gangs and drug cartels together. Infamously tagged as the RICO, this statute introduces a way to tie racketeering activity to who engages in the activity and who orders it! This was a great topic to explore and way for me to decide what I believe safety truly is -- I encourage you all to evaluate the idea of community safety and what that would look like for ALL the members of your community.

    Keep Portland White

    Listen in as I delve into what the heck is going on in Portland. Too often, we displace racism as a uniquely Southern issue while racism is all around us -- Portland is a glaring example of that. Happy Listening!
