Summary
John and Michael chat with Chris Atkins, a celebrated British documentarian who did five years behind bars for tax fraud. (Well, how else was he going to finance his films?) Chris is the newish author of A Bit of a Stretch: The Diaries of a Prisoner, which may be the world's only funny jailhouse memoir... unless you consider Gramsci's a bit of a laugh. He discusses the eerie parallels between life on the inside and the way we all live now under plague conditions. Also, why teetotaling Muslim inmates joined Alcoholics Anonymous. Hosted on Acast.

Sheriff Gangs & Police Brutality
Release Date: 08/19/2020
Description: During the Part 1 premiere of The Black Republik Podcast, we speak with Civil Rights Trial Attorney John Sweeney. Sweeney has been an attorney for over 30 years and has represented a number of high profile clients- particularly victims of police brutality and murder. Sweeney was responsible for getting LA County Sheriff’s Deputy Samuel Aldama to admit that he was a member of the Sheriff’s Gang “Executioners” and got him to show his tattoo signifying his admittance into the gang. This sparked a nationwide outrage that was recently reignited with the murder of Andres Guardado, who was killed by a Compton Sheriff’s Deputy. We’ll talk with Sweeney about the LASD Sheriff gangs, police brutality, his role in getting justice for victims, and what we can do to make a difference. This is surely a premiere you do not want to miss.
