Bonus Fruit: Why It's Hard to Talk about Ferguson
from Strange Fruit · host StrangeFruitPod
After our first show on Ferguson, we heard from a listener who said he "wanted to spend more time with you two hearing how you both felt and were dealing with the events of the week." In this bonus fruit, we talk a bit about how we felt in the aftermath of Ferguson, and why it was so hard to address on the show that week. On that same show, we had spoken to Councilwoman Attica Scott, who made comments about police officers being paid by taxpayers to kill our babies. WDRB President Bill Lamb used that quote in his POV segment that week, telling Councilwoman Scott to "shut up." We listen to part of his POV and address it in this clip. (Bill Lamb's POV is here: http://www.wdrb.com/story/26319335/pov-ferguson-missouri-how-not-to-handle-a-crisis-81914)
