This book was written and published around the time of the tragic events of former LAPD Officer Christopher Dorner.  While Dorsey makes it clear she doesn't condone Dorner's actions, she does understands what he went through because LAPD has made it a habit of targeting black officers who simply do what they pledged to do from the time they graduate from the academy. This show may not be an easy swallow for some listeners because it deals much with the side of the police department much of American society is either in deniel or unaware of, the racist, narcissist, sociopathic police agency that seemingly puts more energy towards fighting blacks and black officers than fighting crime.

Nevergold on her goals for the schools and the upcoming May 3rd School Board Elections. Buffalo Public Schools is a school district in New York that served 32,723 students in 58 schools during the 2011-2012 school year. This district was the second-largest by enrollment in the state of New York. Buffalo Public Schools has experienced significant tumult in recent years, culminating in the resignation of Superintendent Pamela Brown on June 16, 2014. Back on 6/23/14 Nevergold posted: "the State Education Department finally released the 'official' data on the graduation rates for the Buffalo Pubic Schools... The 56% graduation rate projected by Dr. Pamela Brown is right on. In addition, Buffalo posted the greatest percentage increase, almost 9 percentage points, in the graduation rate among all the Big 5 School Districts across the State." People like current schoolboard member Carl Paladino bluntly refuse to recognize this or Brown and Nevergold. The students are currently the victims of a tug of war between schoolboard members backed by different special interest and activist groups. 00:30:003600secondsnoBOE,School Board Election,Carl Paladino,Barbara NevergoldChris interviews Candidates running for the Buffalo School Board Election in MayGary Inannaccone explains The CIA/Mafia, and Cold War Engineeringhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/3600seconds/2016/02/18/gary-inannaccone-explains-the-ciamafia-and-cold-war-engineeringMilitaryhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/3600seconds/2016/02/18/gary-inannaccone-explains-the-ciamafia-and-cold-war-engineering/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/3600seconds/2016/02/18/gary-inannaccone-explains-the-ciamafia-and-cold-war-engineeringThu, 18 Feb 2016 23:00:00 GMTGary Inannaccone explains The CIA/Mafia, and Cold War EngineeringWilliam Gary Iannaccone is an investigator, litigator, storyteller, documentarian, scriptwriter and longtime member of the National Lawyers Guild. He also describes himself as a second generation Mk-Ultra survivor." His latest paper goes into detail regarding the US Government attempts to use himself and his family as guinea pigs in this secret agenda. "My father was released on this day from the Canandaigua Veteran's Hospital where he was involuntarily confined in 1948 by my mother and used for Mk-Ultra psycho-active drug torture experiments." He presents his “Hypothesis of the Secret Agenda of Mk-Ultra” to Chris' audience. "As fellow atheists my hypothesis may be of interest to you because it posits the CIA intended to legitimize and promote Timothy Leary based Neo-Jungian metaphysical concepts and archetypes in the 1960’s." "My Chronology of Evidence connects the dots to establish the extent of mafia involvement in the CIA's behavioral science drug project MK-Ultra. What light this will shed on other alleged CIA/Mafia crimes including the JFK/RFK assassinations remains to be seen."

Some question whether this death is recieving fair media coverage. One Facebook post from EWF fanpage "The Legendary Earth Wind & Fire stated: I'm sitting here going through the New York Daily News and he only received a small article on page 30. A couple of weeks ago when David Bowie and later Glen Frey they both received front page news. I hope the music industry does a better job of paying homage to someone who influenced many a musician. It would be befitting if at the Grammys when they receive the Lifetime Achievement Award they put that as a main part of the show instead of the backdrop as they normally do with this award. No disrespect to Bowie or Frey they deserve that recognition but Maurice does as well. We explore the contributions, music and legacy of White, from one of the first of many members of his best-selling band and how they rose to the top to compete with even the Aerosmith, Rolling Stones, Led Zeppellin, and Chicago in terms of sheer record sales, as well as many of the other funk/fusion bands of their era like Rufus, Ohio Players, Funkadelic and Parliament. 00:45:003600secondsnoMaurice White,Verdine White,Earth Wind & Fire,Sherry Scott,Maurice Heads to the SkyThe life of Earth Wind & Fire founder Maurice White is discussed, as our guest is EWF founding member Sherry ScottCarolette Meadows Explains Civil Rights Lawsuit against Buffalo Public Schoolshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/3600seconds/2016/01/28/carolette-meadows-explains-civil-rights-lawsuit-against-buffalo-public-schoolsEducationhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/3600seconds/2016/01/28/carolette-meadows-explains-civil-rights-lawsuit-against-buffalo-public-schools/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/3600seconds/2016/01/28/carolette-meadows-explains-civil-rights-lawsuit-against-buffalo-public-schoolsThu, 28 Jan 2016 23:00:00 GMTCarolette Meadows Explains Civil Rights Lawsuit against Buffalo Public SchoolsAs of late local activist Carolette Meadows has been a controversial figure in Buffalo's political scene.

Former Federal Investigator John Carman Stops-inFormer U.S. Secret Service, SDPD, U.S. Customs and Immigration agent John Carman is no stranger to Smear Campaigns having been the subject of one himself. He will help us determine if this arrest has validity or is it just the beginning of a Kangaroo Court. According to BlackNews.com: Elkins Park, PA — Actor/ comedian Bill Cosby, who has been accused by more than 50 women of sexual assault, has for the first time ever been arrested and officially charged for at least one of the accusations. The arrest warrant was issued for Cosby for allegedly drugging and sexually assaulting Andrea Constand, a former Temple University employee at his Pennsylvania mansion back in January 2004. He was released after posting $1 million bail. His lawyers commented, “The charge by the Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office came as no surprise, filed 12 years after the alleged incident and coming on the heels of a hotly contested election for this county’s DA during which this case was made the focal point. But Montgomery County District Attorney-Elect Kevin Steele fired back and said, “A prosecutor’s job is to follow the evidence wherever it leads and whenever it comes to light. Upon examination of all the evidence, today we are able to seek justice on behalf of the victim.” But why re-open the case?   Cosby admitted to giving quaaludes, a sedative and hypnotic medication, to women he wanted to have sex with. Cosby has previously said what happened between him and Constand was consensual, but in more recent court filings Constand said it was not consensual, and that she was in a relationship with another woman at the time. The statute of limitations to charge Cosby would have run out in January 2016, so the arrest was made just in time. 00:46:003600secondsnoBill Cosby,Andrea Constand,Kevin Steele,John Carman,Monique PressleyKosby's Kangaroo Kourt!

Maddox has been nothing less than controversial since the days of his representing Tawana Brawley, and his uncompromising defense of her hasn't come without cost. He has been barred from practicing in New York State, evidently without having violated any law. He issued this statement on his "Reinstate Alton Maddox" website: When I resume the practice of law without the white man’s permission, I will first insist that I be treated as an officer of the court.  Court officers have always had a difficult time recognizing me as an officer of the court.  Most black lawyers refuse to seek this title. They hat a high “bar.” Blacks would love to go into the courthouse with me.  All of my followers enjoyed respect.  Black children loved it.  They respect “Freedom Fighters.”             The black teacher at Spring Valley High School in Columbia, SC surrendered his classroom to the sheriff’s office.  He falsely reported a crime.  The black girl had not engaged in probable cause.  No reason existed for a deputy sheriff to be summoned into the classroom.  This was a false arrest.

Just how free are the wrongly accused once they've been officially proven innocent? According to Joyce King's Website freedom can be damn complicated: "The story of a man who stood for something and the woman he loved… Falsely accused of murdering his girlfriend, James Woodard served more than twenty-seven years in prison. In April 2008, James became the seventeenth man exonerated by DNA evidence in Dallas County. The same day he was granted his freedom, James laid eyes on Joyce King, the 'prison wife' he’d fantasized about falling in love with for nearly three decades. It was the happiest day of his life. Their mutual attraction was immediate, but a major hurdle complicated their relationship. Joyce was a prominent activist, the first non-lawyer to serve on the board of directors for the Innocence Project of Texas, the nonprofit that helped James win his freedom and ensure justice by working hard to change the compensation law in Texas. EXONERATED (Order yours Here) vividly details the instant bond James and Joyce shared as soul mates and the challenges that arose when their disparate worlds collided. This riveting account serves as a blueprint for how to navigate innocence and avoid the painful lessons they learned about justice, freedom, power, and love."

After dropping passengers in Selma, she and 19 years old Leroy Moton headed back to Montgomery. Liuzzo stopped at a red light, and a car with four white men pulled up alongside her. They saw a white woman and a black man in a car together. Because of segregation blacks and whites in the South did not share public facilities and race mixing often led to violence. These men belonged to the Ku Klux Klan (KKK), a group that supported the continuation of segregation. They followed Liuzzo, who tried to outrun them. They caught up with her car and opened fire. She was shot in the head and died in Lowndesboro, Alabama on March 25, 1965. On May 3, 1965, the trial of Liuzzo’s killers began. One of the men in the car, Gary Thomas Rowe, Jr., was an FBI informant and thus was protected by the FBI. The three others were indicted on a state charge of murder and a federal charge of civil rights violation. The all-white jury could not come to a decision and a mistrial was declared. The second trial began in October. The defense attorney attacked the credibility of the informant, Rowe, stating that he fabricated information. The men were found not guilty of murder. In the federal trial the defendants were found guilty of conspiracy to violate the civil rights of Liuzzo and were sentenced to ten years in prison, a landmark in southern legal history." Liuzzo-a member of the NAACP and First Unitarian Universalist Church of Detroit-had five children; Penny, Evangeline Mary, Tommy, Anthony, Jr., and Sally.

The savage murder of  James Byrd Jr., (49) whom was walking home from a party when three white men in a pickup truck offered him a ride. They drove Byrd out to a lonely country road, tied him to a logging chain, and dragged him 3 miles to his death. Today young white boys are stalking blacks while walking home from the convenient store to going to a black church and sitting through a prayer and discussion before opening fire on them.

"Hate Crime" is her first of two books. She also writes guest columns and opinion pieces for USA Today, The Christian Science Monitor, and The Dallas Morning News. She is also a native Texan assigned to cover the story, which drew international media headlines. According to Random House: "In Hate Crime, she provides a chilling re-creation of the slaying and the subsequent trials.

What is taking place stands to be part of Buffalo's version of Gentrification called UB 2020 that is eating away at the rights of the immediate black community affecting it-also known as the Fruit Belt-and the latest issue regarding it is the practice of suburban employees who work downtown taking parking spaces in front of homes of residents. A bill that would create a parking permit system is currently having trouble going through. Chris will once again interview Veronica Nichols who has been fighting for the residents of the Fruit Belt (where she resides) and nearby McCarley Gardens for the past several years. According to a report by WGRZ TV: "The proposal would allow a program to be established along the most heavily impacted streets, including sections of Maple, Mulberry, Locust, Carlton and High streets. Residents would be issued permits to park and 20 percent of the spaces would still be available for non-residential parking. Two On Your Side has obtained a document showing that CSEA does not support a permit program because employees have limited places to park. Currently, 3,100 employees work at Roswell Park Cancer Institute and only 1,600 spaces are available. In the next five years, 17,000 people are expected to work at the medical campus." 00:45:003600secondsnoFruit Belt Parking,Veronica Hemphill-Nichols,Gentrification,UB 2020,Medical CorridorDowntown residents of Buffalo are feeling pushed-out more and more over the past few years, and most of this has to do with an initiative launched years ago thaThe Buffalo Officer Who was Fired After Saving a Victim from a Chokeholdhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/3600seconds/2015/06/11/the-buffalo-officer-who-was-fired-after-saving-a-victim-from-a-chokeholdPoliticshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/3600seconds/2015/06/11/the-buffalo-officer-who-was-fired-after-saving-a-victim-from-a-chokehold/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/3600seconds/2015/06/11/the-buffalo-officer-who-was-fired-after-saving-a-victim-from-a-chokeholdThu, 11 Jun 2015 22:00:00 GMTThe Buffalo Officer Who was Fired After Saving a Victim from a ChokeholdChris discusses Cariol Horne and reads a letter of support written by 100 Blacks in Law Enforcement who Care. Over the course of the past several weeks some news about a Buffalo Police Officer saving a man from a chokehold he was receiving from a fellow officer over 8-years-ago is being looked at once again. Cariol Jean Horne’s actions on 11/1/06 on intervening in the choking of a black man, Neal Mack by Buffalo Police Officer Greg Kwiatkowski probably saved Mack from being Eric Garner before the Eric Garner incident. Kwiatkowski-like Daniel Pantaleo and Loehmann-had a track record of anger and attitude issues that should have got him ousted from the force long ago, instead it was Officer Horne who had since been fired for her possibly-life-saving efforts. She openly admits she would do the same thing over again were the situation to re-present itself. Horne is black, Kwiatkowski is white. Even during a time when Horne underwent a disciplinary hearing, he continued to force similar situations upon members of the public and his fellow officers. While Kwiatkowski continued to break laws, the Buffalo Police Department still appeared obsessed with trying to teach Horne a lesson for breaking policy. He was rewarded with a promotion to Lieutenant just before her firing. In response to a letter of Support by 100 Blacks in Law Enforcement who Care, Mayor Brown requested that horne meet with him on Thursday 6/4/15 in City Hall. 00:40:003600secondsnoCariol Horne,Greg Kwiatkowski,BPD,Choke Hold,Byron BrownChris discusses Cariol Horne and reads a letter of support written by 100 Blacks in Law Enforcement who Care.

We discuss her involvement with local Los Angeles area community activists in representing Marlene Pinnock, the great grandmother seen being brutally beaten by a still-unidentified California Highway Patrol Officer on Tuesday 71/14. As is often the case, recent news has new victims alleging this officer has a habit of similiar behavior. He has put on administrative leave, but is still getting paid. Host Chris Stevenson feels this officer's behavior-along with a previous assault on a black female in Arizona-is part of a rising patern of resentment he calls Black-Crazy. This has been manifest increasingly since the election of a black president, but is now not excluding the women.

In 1996 they merged with the Longview Niagara Group to provide services to children and families through 18 different programs. Their E. Ferry location in particular has been cited for various improprieties; directors and officers using income and assets for personal gain, engaged in deceptive and improper fundraising practices, racial discrimination and workplace harassment and bullying, fraudulent use of public money and it’s subsequent cover-up through secret meetings. One wonders where Gateway_Longview (GL)  fits on Cuomo’s investigative Moreland Commission (when the commission was active) or whether or not it’s one of the reasons he had it shut down.

Right now in spite of support from many leaders and residents of Buffalo, certain political decision-makers in the city and county are trying to pretend this plan doesn't exist. This is also in spite of the taxpayer money Erie County stands to save in the building of this retractable-domed, all-purpose year-round facility (the county will only be required to pay %30), as opposed to the cost of additional renovation of the suburban stadium in Orchard Park which doesn't make money during the NFL offseason.

Considering  it's been a few weeks since the 38th Anniversary of her passing (2/22/76), a discussion of her is very timely. With a voice comparable to fellow Detroiter Aretha Franklin herself, she was one of the original four founding members of the Supremes. Their songs dominated the pop and R&B music airwaves, being rivaled only by the Beatles. Sadly the company that made them famous turned on it's most talented member in a series of psychological, covert and overt manuevers designed to emphasize Diana Ross and de-emphasize Flo.

Rhodes said she was told the procedure would only take 20 minutes but was left waiting for hours as she heard her baby scream throughout the entire procedure. “It took them about three hours to do the circumcision and so my baby screamed the whole three hours, like the whole process,” Rhodes said. “Then even when she gave him back to us, he was still screaming.” Rhodes said she was not notified of the botched procedure, instead she and her sister made the shocking discovery at home when Ashton was still screaming and they saw his diaper filled with blood. “When she pulled back the cloth, like the thing was like, gone. She cut up instead of down, instead of cutting around the top of the ,” Rhodes was quoted. Ms. Rhodes will be on the show today to dicuss this disturbing story with Chris. Appearing with Maggie on  the show was yet another victim of Christ Community HC botched circumcision; Lena, who's son was also treated in just such a sloppy unprofessional manner. Make sure you are on hand to listen and/or call in.

It was called "Malcolm X: A Life of Reinvention," and only served to invent a fire-storm of outrage throughout the intelligensia of the black community. Much of this was due to remarks attributed to Marable seemingly meant to de-value, de-masculinize and marginalize the legacy of history's most influential African American nationalist. In response another book was put together by Jared A. Ball; an Associate Professor at Morgan State University, and Todd Steven Burroughs; a lecturer in the Morgan State Department of Communication. Their book "A Lie of Reinvention" where they utilize several noted authors, investigative journalists, and writers in their own right, such as Mumia abu-Jamal, Karl Evanzz and others, in what can be considred a sharp critique aimed at setting things straight on the matter of Malcolm X whom is obviously not here to defend himself.

As we get closer to November 22, which will mark the 50th Anniversary of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, Always remember the story of the Real Bodyguard; the first black agent assigned to the White House detail, selected by Kennedy himself, Abraham Bolden. He is also the author of "The Echo from Dealey Plaza: The true story of the first African American on the White House Secret Service detail and his quest for justice after the assassination of JFK." This is the hottest book I have read in a long time. Bolden went head-long into his assignement to protect the life of the President that he so admired, that when he discovered internal behaviors within the Secret Service itself that compromised the safety of the President, he reported his findings to his superiors and afterwards he was removed from Kennedy's detail just before the fateful date, and became targeted unjustly. Find out why by listening to this interview, and help clear his name.

She would become a Missionary for them at 16, and eventually marry Joe Anderson a few years later. In 1982 she began serving at their coverted headquarters of the Watchtower Bible & Tract Society, also known by many as Brooklyn Bethel. No small feat considering the low number of women serving there. She would eventaully rise to the ranks of top researcher/writer under Karl Adams; Writing Department Overseer and former Gilead School (JW Missionary training school) instructor. Anderson authored many of the Awake articles and some publications printed and published there. She was a member of the writing staff (they were dubbed the "Faithful and Discreet Slave" by their own Governing Body), a powerful ruling body in their own right that all but claims divinity among their worldwide membership. It was in that position that she inadvertantly ran into trouble while doing some reseach under the orders of Adams, she stumbled onto a database which concealed tens of thousands of unreported child-molestation cases within the various Kingdom Hall congregations around the world. Cases the JW Governing Body knew about, but refused to report to the authorities (Which created what Stevenson dubs religiously sanctioned molestation or RSM). What would she do?
