RSH 109 -- All Judges (11.22.2021)

Recorded November 17, 2021. We (Adam and Peter) recorded this before the verdict of the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, which we discuss in this episode. On November 19, Rittenhouse was acquitted of all charges (murder, attempted homicide, recklessly endangering safety). What Adam (just now) noticed is how the fact that Kyle admitted to killing a guy on the phone during the protest (he was phoning someone and it got recorded). Real Sankara Hours discussed this in a previous episode right when the protests and shooting occurred in August 2020.  In addition to the Rittenhouse trial, Adam and Peter also talk about Ethiopia, the trial of the men who killed Ahmaud Arbery, a U.S. airstrike in Syria that killed dozens of innocent people in Syria in 2019, and the Astroworld Festival stampede.  Links: Kyle Rittenhouse trial: https://www.gq.com/story/72-hours-in-kenosha https://apnews.com/article/jury-finds-kyle-rittenhouse-not-guilty-in-kenosha-shootings-27f812ba532d65c044617483c915e4de https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/rittenhouse-verdict-jurors-reach-decision-rcna5090 Real Sankara Hours episode on Kenosha and Rittenhouse shooting people: https://soundcloud.com/realsankarahours/rsh-49-kenosha-on-fire-8272020 Ahmaud Arbery: https://www.cnn.com/2021/11/16/us/ahmaud-arbery-killing-trial-day-8-tuesday/index.html https://apnews.com/article/ahmaud-arbery-crime-georgia-brunswick-720e9763fa7810291b9e063c0714e716 https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2021/11/09/greg-mcmichael-interview-police-ahmaud-arbery-death-shooting/6345589001/?fbclid=IwAR3cyCHq--8CneXPuC36M5_KXbPnNpOi6IXimz9e4xzQj-o5OtHTryZ12OM https://www.huffpost.com/entry/ahmaud-arbery-greg-mcmichael-shooting_n_618adbece4b0c8666be3469b?d_id=2817437&ref=bffbhuffpost&ncid_tag=fcbklnkushpmg00000063&utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Facebook&utm_campaign=us_main&fbclid=IwAR0id6J_hV57GK4C9e0i1W7H2ZrWZkKilWTyZanqT1t1TjsvFpZ769NzpHw Syria: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/13/us/us-airstrikes-civilian-deaths.html  ISIS is a product of the Iraq war: https://theintercept.com/2016/08/25/u-s-military-now-says-isis-leader-was-held-in-notorious-abu-ghraib-prison/ ; https://theintercept.com/2018/01/29/isis-iraq-war-islamic-state-blowback/  Stampede at Travis Scott Astroworld Festival: Death toll: https://www.houstonchronicle.com/politics/texas/politifact/article/fact-check-astroworld-death-toll-travis-scott-16641312.php Ghost Ship fire in Oakland: https://www.npr.org/2021/03/09/975206741/man-sentenced-in-2016-ghost-ship-warehouse-fire-in-oakland-calif-that-killed-36 Theme song: "Real Sankara Hours theme song" Peter MGunn -- bass guitar Adam Hudson -- drums Support the struggle: Pan-African Community Library in Burkina Faso: https://gofund.me/4b276440 Anti-Police Terror Project -- @APTPaction (Twitter) People's Breakfast Oakland -- @PeoplesBreakOak Follow us on Twitter: Adam Hudson -- @adamhudson5 Peter MGunn -- @MGunnPeter Real Sankara Hours -- @sankarahours Adam's SoundCloud -- @adamhudson5 Get the RSS feed from our Podbean to stay up-to-date with new episodes: realsankarahours.podbean.com Subscribe to us on Patreon to get bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/realsankarahours/ Make a one-time donation to our PayPal: https://paypal.me/realsankarahours?locale.x=en_US
