Episode 0109: White People Have Private Attorneys, Black People Have Public Defenders

from 5 Minutes With Mike · host Michael Beckford

There is no way in the world that you can have equal justice under the color of law. When you have two systems of Justice quote on quote. Fighting for their own ulterior motives . One system prides itself on locking up newly registered slaves. The other system does all that it can with Big Time budgets to make sure their clients do not see the same faith as the other system that is fighting to persecute them. And of course as we all know Justice is inherently biased. Because although the figure of Justice is blind by all accounts. It can still hear and listen to the gravity of a nation that is failed a particular people day in and day out. Welcome to another episode of 5 minutes with Mike where White people have private attorneys and black people have public defenders. Black Bodies White Power There was a distinct time in America where slavery particularly Shadow slavery here in these United States of America was not considered a crime to own another human being.  2. White Kid Gets 2 months. Black kid gets 3 years. America's judicial system has been rotten from the onset. There is barely any justice when it comes down to police brutality. 3. No one cares until they are personally affected. Unfortunately right now for a lot of the old heads that may be listening to this podcast and on YouTube a lot of them are blaming rap music for all of the black communities woes. And of course in my mind this could not be furthest from the truth.  Black Facts Did you know? Thurgood Marshall (July 2, 1908 – January 24, 1993) was an American civil rights lawyer and jurist who served as an associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States from 1967 until 1991. He was the Supreme Court's first African-American justice. Prior to his judicial service, he was an attorney who fought for civil rights, leading the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund. Marshall coordinated the assault on racial segregation in schools. He won 29 of the 32 civil rights cases he argued before the Supreme Court, culminating in the Court's landmark 1954 decision in Brown v. Board of Education, Let’s Take Em To Church The greatest crime that takes place in America every day is a corrupt legal system. A system that prides itself on locking up fresh black bodies. While giving well to do and even poor white people a pass. Ad: One of the best ways to help support this channel is by purchasing our newly minted merch. Introducing the Michael Beckford collection.
