Always Present, Always Threatening

Trump may be out of here, but his band of terroristic misfits surely are not. Which led us to think about how so many people were shocked and surprised that this level of ignorance, hatred, fear and confidence existed. We of course, were not surprised at all. This week we talk about Americas long standing history with white domestic terrorism. We get into its always present energy (16:50), how that energy allows for 4,084 *recorded southern lynchings to occur in a 3,792 week period (35:00) and its recent/worrying trend upward (45:00). Donald shares some core tenants of these terrorist groups (53:45) so you can keep your eye out and we have some words for a select group of men (1:06:50).

About the Podcast

The Black Codes
In an attempt to understand what the hell is going on in America, Savannah and Donald (two self proclaimed N*ggas With Attitudes and degrees) embark on a quest to connect the dots between past and present. Through research, data and shade, The Black Codes aims to look at the present state of America through an often overlooked lens, her actual/factual relationship with her Black citizens. Join us every Thursday as we uncover the many ties and lies that bind America’s past & present.
