Rudy is back this week! We dive into tech and ai, colonization, slavery, robots, and big tech. We briefly touch on Epstein, and the fall of Bill Gates in the public eye. We catch up with the latest in Paul Birdsong news - he lost his gun permits and it's not too surprising, according to Relly and Rudy. We discuss more Mamdani, Alyssa Liu, Sister Elaine & the Black Panthers, Black Power, Black Lives Matter, Black Anarchism, a few recent organizing wins in NYC - Eric Duran and Easy Aerial, & more.Listen wherever you get your podcasts: rss.com/podcasts/unapologetictawkWatch us NOW ON RUMBLE: https://rumble.com/user/UnapologeticTawkSupport us with studio costs: patreon.com/unapologetictawkInstagram: @unapologetictawk @rellyrebel @dimez_cartier @ruuuuu.de TikTok: @unapologetic.tawk @dimezcartier @bosshogrelly Blue/Blacksky: @unapologetictawk.blacksky.app @rudyfraser.com @rellyrebel.bsky.social @dimezcartier.bsky.socialRudy founded Blacksky to connect Black users on Bluesky and the basis for other community algorithms. https://blackskyweb.xyz or the new https://blacksky.community and app coming soon!

Welcome back! What better way to get back into it than catching up on what's been going on, and talking about the current state of the world and of NYC. We have Dimez and Relly online for this first episode, and expect Rudy to be back for the next one! Dimez tells us about their recent moves, new apartment, and what's been going on with Stonewall Was A Riot. We hear about Relly's recent actions - he's back outside protesting and the NYPD is ramping up their response each week. The online response has also been ramping up. Relly has been protesting for Police Commissioner Tisch to be fired and for the CCRB to have the final say in police disciplinary review, but his eyes are also on Mamdani, who continues to walk back on his campaign commitments. We talk about these broken promises and Mamdani's run in office so far until the Coned construction workers outside on the street accidentally cut the power to the block and cut our conversation a bit short.

From the military occupation of DC and Trump’s threats to expand to Chicago, NYC, and Baltimore, to more Eric Adams corruption, there was a lot to cover! We get updates from Relly and Rudy on their lives and work, then get into federal agents on the ground in DC. We discuss the occupation in comparison with the current reality on the ground with the NYPD in NYC. We discuss online activists vs content creators vs activists on the ground. What is the line between doing the work and just trying to profit off of a reputation? We discuss the situation in NYC with folks being called out on multiple fronts for taking advantage of the movement and of people. We discuss white activists defending this behavior from other white activists, all while profiting off of Black and brown people. We return to the topic of politicians and whether we can hold them accountable, and the ways they take advantage of the community. BIG ANNOUNCEMENT: Rudy and Blacksky are launching their app soon!!!!

We cover a range of current events involving police brutality, politics, Trump, and Eric Adams. We start off with personal updates and a discussion on balancing life with purpose, doing what fills you, and continuing the fight with the right community around you. From ending “woke AI” to banning houselessness, Trump is on a tear to cover up the Epstein file conversation and his naming coming up in the Diddy trial - even releasing new MLK files. Eric Adams new campaign strategy is to pander to Black people in NYC, including going around handing out money with influencers and not including putting any actual effort into helping Black people. We talk about the mindsets of young kids in the city today, what it feels like to have fewer and fewer options before you. We talk about ICE, the control of the media, and everything activism and revolution. It's always a great conversation between our hosts, tune in!

We’re back with an interview with Carla Marie Davis, New York City political content creator and organizer. Carla describes her journey from fashion into local politics, creating a practice of self-care amidst the capitalist system taking a toll on physical and mental health, and the role of social media in engaging the community.She tells us why she is drawn to get involved in local politics and why we can’t make politicians into celebrities and the importance and feasibility of holding them accountable. Dimez recounts their firsthand experience of a certain politician's appearance at pride marches this past month. We talk about staying up to date with politics, Zohran Mamdani’s campaign in the democratic primary, the ICE crisis, and the intersections of anti-Blackness and immigration. We also talk about art, the role of culture in collective action, and the exploitation of art by capitalism - struggling to survive without compromising on values, and so much more.

First off, RELLYS BIG CASE HAS BEEN DISMISSED! Hear the inside scoop as Relly tells us what’s next now that he has this case off of his back. Rudy brings up his current read, Days of Rage, which he picked up after reading about the Mississippi Freedom Movement - “We Will Shoot Back” (watch ep 70!). Rudy relates it to an American man caught in Israel trying to firebomb the Israeli Embassy - who posted it online. We look back on the tragic murder of George Floyd, the subsequent uprising, and the fall off of attention and activism relating to the police oppression and genocide of Black people in Amerikkka and globally. Relly had an important and impactful protest for George Floyd and Palestine on Sunday. We discuss the relation of the Gaza genocide to the genocide of indigenous peoples on this land, and the ongoing genocide against Black and Indigenous people in this country. Things are getting so bad over here, other countries are trying to cut themselves off from the US, even on the internet!

We start off hearing from Rudy about the book “We Will Shoot Back, Armed Resistance in the Mississippi Freedom Movement” by Akinyele Umoja, about the armed Black resistance fighting against oppression in the Mississippi Basin. Rudy draws parallels between fights past and present, how Black Lives Matter, Black Power, and the civil rights movements relate to the Mississippi Freedom Movement, the mindsets. “Hands up Don’t Shoot” and “We Will Shoot Back.” This brings us into a discussion about literature, anarchy, self-reliance, science fiction, and being targeted by the cops. Cue Relly, who runs down some of his history being targeted by the NYPD and put on the news hot seat in NYC. From City Hall, to Rejecting Eric Adams, to hate speech lawsuits, calling him a terrorist on the news, and the latest cases charging him with attempted burglary and arson. We talk about the case of Karmelo Anthony, a young Black teen facing a serious case over self-defense. We talk about the similarities and differences between Karmelo and Daniel Penny, folks are raising money for Karmelo amidst the rising fury of this incident where race has become a focal point. Texas republicans continue to be clueless and evil, attempting to restrict and destruct things which they don’t even understand - this time denying the biological reality of Intersex people and having to be interrupted and told he’s spouting nonsense in real time by his aide.

Corruption is back and better than ever! From Donald Trump in the White House and Eric Adams back from his “Covid” break, the news is full of executive orders, defunding, and mayhem. We discuss Eric Adams campaign, as well as a few of the other candidates that have caught our eye. Relly ties in his actions and marching against Eric Adams - we are spreading the word: WE REJECT ERIC ADAMS! Dimez brings up the harmful effects of Trumps policy edicts on Trans people and Trans rights, we discuss how this conservative ideology across the board is affecting everyday life. More updates across the intersection of social media and politics with Trump back in office as well. Rudy tells us about DeepSeek - a new AI tool taking the tech world by storm. The trial of the Cooler Killer, killer cop Eric Duran, has started in the Bronx. Relly gives us the update and connects this case to that of the murder of Robert Brooks. Justice for Mikey and Robert! We end on a lighter but still serious note - the downfall of certain folks in the music industry, Rap beefs, and the upcoming superbowl.

This week we are back to basics with Relly Rudy and Dimez on the virtual studio mics! We have soooo much to catch up on with personal lives, world events, and all around chaos happening in society.We had to discuss the abduction of Mahmoud Khalil by unidentified state agents and his ongoing detention, along with further crackdowns on campus protesting and campus life by the trump admin as they push to proudly reveal the fascist backbone to every racist institution. Relly guides us into a conversation about the music industry and its effects on Black youth by touching on a current nyc rappers court case. This convo is broad and deep just like the complexity of the issue. Rudy tells us about the latest successes with Blacksky - he will probably have a new dev hired by the time this episode drops.Relly runs through the latest protest actions, Rudy tells us what it’s like to fire somebody, and Dimez gives the update on S.W.A.R.

Our episode this week is just the beginning of more conversations to come! After a few technical difficulties we got into the studio and had an incredible conversation! Our guests are Shawn Marcel of Untitled and Free (@untitledandfree on IG), Richard Cruz of the Ahimsa Collective (www.ahimsacollective.net and @theahimsacollective on IG), and Ant Ammons (@ant_ammons on IG) star of Q Ball: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IsFnFYfCJMgDrawing on their own experiences with the system and their work back outside, our guests bring us through a nuanced and deep discussion. We discuss of course the violent murders of Robert Brooks and Messiah Nantwi in upstate NY prisons right across the street from each other. We touch on the organizing which ended Solitary Confinement in CA prisons and present day attempts by the system to expand the practice around the country and to turn former prisons into ICE facilities. We talk through the weaponization of politics, criminalization of our own communities, organizing inside and outside of incarceration, and the need to come together to end mass incarceration globally.

This week Relly and Rudy are joined by Freedom Agenda NY — a grassroots, member-led project dedicated to organizing people and communities directly impacted by incarceration to achieve decarceration and system transformation. Darren, co-founder and co-director, and Ashley, senior community organizer, take us into the Close Rikers movement, uplift community members we’ve lost on Rikers, and bust the NIMBY (not in my backyard) myths about the new borough-based jail system. Relly shares his experience on Rikers and the group goes into the ideas of decarceration and abolition. On March 7, join Freedom Agenda ahead of the City Council Criminal Justice Committee's Preliminary Budget hearing to insist on a budget that supports the closure of Rikers by moving resources from the bloated Department of Correction to crucial community needs. https://freedomagenda.ourpowerbase.net/civicrm/event/info?reset=1&id=122Shout out to Rudy for his work partnering with Bluesky on their new app Flashes to create “Blacksky Images,” a Blacksky explorer page!

We’ve got Rudy and Relly in the studio this week, another entertaining and illuminating episode of banter and discussion between this dynamic duo. Dimez had work and a fashion show, go Dimez!We dive right in on Kendrick Lamar and the halftime show - why is everybody else’s struggle more important than the struggles of Black people? Why did folks want Kendrick to speak on everything else, Palestine, Trump etc etc, and why did they not recognize the brilliance in his performance, and the importance of it being for Black people?We continue talking about Anti-Black Racism in activist and protest communities - beyond explicit racism and into the tokenization, racist expectations of Black activists, racist beliefs about methods, work, and the community. In our communities right now, Black activists are still facing racism from other activists. Mutual aid is part of Black Lives Matter and don’t you forget it!!!! Eric Adams claims that he was dead for four days and rose from the dead (?? Strange man) but he must have the timeline wrong because Relly crucified him over the bullhorn as he left his federal court hearing in NYC last week Wednesday. GAME OVER ERIC! More updates on his slippery, lying, trump-sucking activities as well. WE REJECT ERIC ADAMS!!!!

We are humbled to have Jose Angel Perez aka Power the Poet on the show today to enlighten us with his life stories– growing up in the foster system, being sent to Rikers, being at Rikers at the same time as his Mom, and how he found poetry as an outlet through all of this. We dig deeper with Jose in a discussion about the different rehabilitation programs offered to incarcerated folks, and where the American carceral system is failing to deliver that rehabilitation. Jose then delivers a reading of one of his poems from his book “Till Ink Meets Paper” that left us all with chills. You’re not going to want to skip this episode!You can purchase Jose’s book here:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DLTLKTMG?ref_=cm_sw_r_ffobk_cp_ud_dp_19SM3V6FRNEXB2270AP1_1&bestFormat=true&newOGT=1You can follow Jose on Instagram:@j.a._perezFollow & listen wherever you get your podcasts: https://rss.com/podcasts/unapologetictawk/?listen-on=true Watch, Like & Subscribe to the podcast on Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/@UnapologeticTawkPodcastDon’t forget to leave us a nice rating :)Follow the podcast on socials:Instagram: @unapologetictawk Tik Tok: @unapologetictawkFollow Relly: @rellyrebel Follow Dimez: @dimez_cartierFollow Rudy: @shacqealRudy is the creator of Blacksky, an algorithm to connect Black users on Bluesky and the basis for other community algorithms on Bluesky.

First and foremost, Happy Martin Luther King Day! We didn’t realize this episode was dropping on MLK day until like, yesterday. What a great way to honor Dr King, by educating and enlightening the people. Relly is marching today too right as this episode drops! Welcome back to another episode with Unapologetic Taaaaaawk! This week we have Rudy and Relly chopping it up in the studio. We talk about everything from Trump and the inauguration, his antics, and tiktok, to Eric Adams, his multiple Federal investigations, the NYPD, and his campaign being broke! The two of them went down to plan more shenanigans at Mar A Lago by the way, including probably Eric Adams’ pardon. Underground, Kathy Hochul has a wildly unrealistic plan to add patrol officers to every subway train every night, and new anti-fare-evasion measures are just making hopping easier!

If you’ve been watching, you know that MASS (Mutual Aid through Scientific Socialism) is a new mutual aid group that started in Kensington Brooklyn a few months ago.We talk mutual aid with Shem and Jonas, and then our discussion shifts to their organizing in school for Palestine - the student occupation, the demands being made, the retaliation, and the ultimate reality of where we are and what happens next.

We’re baaaaaack! After a couple weeks off, we are jumping right back into it with a huge news week. Obviously, we get started by discussing the election results, what another Donald Trump administration means, the failure of the Democratic Party, and emboldening white supremacy. We inject some levity into things talking about the public tussle between two top NYPD officials at the NYC Marathon last weekend over a group photo.We end giving updates from on the ground at the Daniel Penny Trial where Relly and other activists have been holding it down for Jordan Neely.Follow & listen wherever you get your podcasts: https://rss.com/podcasts/unapologetictawk/?listen-on=true Watch, Like & Subscribe to the podcast on Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/@UnapologeticTawkPodcastDon’t forget to leave us a nice rating :)Follow the podcast on socials:Instagram: @unapologetictawk Tik Tok: @unapologetictawkFollow Relly: @rellyrebel Follow Dimez: @dimez_cartierFollow Rudy: @shacqealRudy is the creator of Blacksky, an algorithm to connect Black users on Bluesky and the basis for other community algorithms on Bluesky.

We have the dynamic duo of Relly and Dimez in studio this week with a variety of topics. First, they delve into an underreported story of a suspected lynching of a Black man in Alabama that is now being investigated by the FBI. Then we discuss an interview with Keke Palmer that leads into a larger discussion around the corruption of celebrity and systemic, societal abuse. As the election continues to draw nearer, we get into a few presidential race topics including Barack Obama’s condescending message to Black men on who they vote for and reacting to Kamala’s Fox News interview. The hosts discuss the viability of third parties and how we can exert electoral power through exploring other models for government.Follow & listen wherever you get your podcasts: https://rss.com/podcasts/unapologetictawk/?listen-on=true Watch, Like & Subscribe to the podcast on Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/@UnapologeticTawkPodcast Don’t forget to leave us a nice rating :)Follow the podcast on socials:Instagram: @unapologetictawk Tik Tok: @unapologetictawkFollow Relly: @rellyrebel Follow Dimez: @dimez_cartierFollow Rudy: @shacqealRudy is the creator of Blacksky, an algorithm to connect Black users on Bluesky and the basis for other community algorithms on Bluesky.

Another episode, another week of turbulence for the Eric Adams administration and his NYPD top cops. Thomas Donlon we hardly knew ya! We discuss the freshly appointed NYPD commissioner already resigning after only a few weeks on the job and an FBI raid on his apartment. Then we dig into the NY Post story revealing Deputy Commissioner of Operations Kaz Daughtry pocketing almost $150k in overtime despite department rules barring management level positions from collecting it. We also discuss the predictable backlash Ta-Nehisi Coates continues to receive after the release of his book “The Message” and his subsequent publicity tour in which he has been critical of the government of Israel. We touch on some fun topics too including a ridiculous video from a local police department unveiling their new cyber truck.

I don’t think we will ever have an episode that isn’t jam-packed with big news ever again!!! This week we touch on more Eric Adams Corruption Circus Acts - including the Sheriff and the First Deputy Mayor in addition to Erica himself.While hurricane Eric wreaks havoc on NYC govt, Hurricane Helene devastated huge swaths of the south east and the USA govt is ignoring them to …. Checks notes …. Send more bombs to Israel.Speaking of, Israel is continuing to expand its reach of genocide and bombings.Just like Adams, Diddy continues to go down for his crimes as well, and more keep being exposed.We also get into the INSANITY that was Rellys first court appearance post-Rikers for the protesting charges.

We have another loaded episode for you this week. We are joined by Hawk and Chivona Newsome of Black Opportunities and Black Lives Matter Greater New York to break down both the federal indictment of Eric Adams and the targeting of Relly by the NYPD after he was given a $10k bail and was sent to Rikers Island for protesting last week. Hawk and Chivona explain the reasoning for disrupting the corrupt mayor’s press conference the following day and give their analysis on why the state is trying so hard to suppress activism. Relly then describes his time on Rikers Island, the deplorable conditions, and how an NYPD lie has him in such legal jeopardy. On the brighter side, we highlight the incredible swell of support from the community as we rallied to raise his bail, how it is indicative of the string networks We The People has built in the city and how we can seize on that momentum. We also end by talking about Missouri executing Marcellus Williams by lethal injection last week despite evidence of his innocence and over one million people signing a petition for a stay of execution. We close the episode by honoring the legacy and poetry highlighting the plight of oppressed peoples he left behind.Visit www.blackagenda2024.com to check out the demands being made of political candidates in exchange for further support.Visit www.theblackopts.com to support their educational initiativesVisit www.innocenceproject.org to support and stay up to date on other campaigns to get innocent people off death rowWatch, Like & Subscribe to the podcast on Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/@UnapologeticTawkPodcast Don’t forget to leave us a nice rating :)Follow the podcast on socials:Instagram: @unapologetictawk Tik Tok: @unapologetictawkFollow Relly: @rellyrebel Follow Dimez: @dimez_cartierFollow Rudy: @shacqealRudy is the creator of Blacksky, an algorithm to connect Black users on Bluesky and the basis for other community algorithms on Bluesky.

First off, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Dimez!!! We had so much to talk about this episode. The FBI has been getting busy in NYC with Diddy arrested and further raids and investigations in Eric Adams circles and within the FDNY.The NYPD 73rd precinct committed a mass shooting last week at the Sutter ave L station, and we break down the timeline of the shooting and the NYPD attempts to control the narrative. Relly threw a protest on Tuesday against the 73rd precinct and the NYPD responded with aggressive brutality. We discuss how it all went down and the next steps of the fight.Support the fundraiser for Blacksky's cyber security protections:https://opencollective.com/blacksky/contribute/cybersecurity-protections-for-the-blacksky-team-79597Watch, Like & Subscribe to the podcast on Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/@UnapologeticTawkPodcastDon’t forget to leave us a nice rating :)Follow the podcast on socials:Instagram: @unapologetictawk Tik Tok: @unapologetictawkFollow Relly: @rellyrebel Follow Dimez: @dimez_cartierFollow Rudy: @shacqealRudy is the creator of Blacksky, an algorithm to connect Black users on Bluesky and the basis for other community algorithms on Bluesky.

We start off the episode with a bang (i guess with a pop?) celebrating our one year, and THE RESIGNATION OF EDWARD CABAN. You know how much we’ve talked about the corrupt Adams administration and the facade is continuing to crumble.Doxxing is serious business, Rudy runs us through his experience and the steps we all can take to protect ourselves. Justin Robinson was murdered, and we had to bring his story up on the podcast as part of the call for justice. The night of the 9/11 debate, an autonomous action went down, so we talk actions and tactics when we break that down.Bluesky has video now, so look out for Unapologetic Tawk clips going viral on there!Watch, Like & Subscribe to the podcast on Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/@UnapologeticTawkPodcastDon’t forget to leave us a nice rating :)Follow the podcast on socials:Instagram: @unapologetictawk Tik Tok: @unapologetictawkFollow Relly: @rellyrebel Follow Dimez: @dimez_cartierFollow Rudy: @shacqealRudy is the creator of Blacksky, an algorithm to connect Black users on Bluesky and the basis for other community algorithms on Bluesky.

This week have two comrades from the movement, Betsy and Jsin, on the pod. Ever been out at a protest in NYC and heard that marching band music? Chances are it was them and Rude Mechanical Orchestra. They tell us about what it’s like providing music and energy for the movement. Betsy also co-founded The Sick Times, one of the most reliable news sources for Covid information nationwide and in the city. She gives us a rundown on all of the latest trends, and dispels common misconceptions and narratives surrounding Covid. We also get into some current events, including the latest developments in the corruption case against the Eric Adams campaign, as well as another NYPD top brass getting investigated by the DOJ.

We had to have our laughs about that to start off the episode. The arrest of Telegram’s Pavel Durov is another big story this week, leaving us asking what does that mean for social media and privacy online?We watch and break down a few clips from the recent news- first The Poor People’s Army, hearing from some of the less covered movements protesting at the DNC. Next, Kamala on the border wall and the democratic-republican contradictions there. Trump is back brawling into the news with his entourage in Arlington National Cemetery so we had to run that down as well. We end the episode by getting into a nuanced conversation about movement-building and our respective thoughts on the centralization of power within popular movements. Another great discussion!

This week Relly and Dimez are in the studio, but Rudy was unfortunately out sick :( hopefully we have everyone back next week! You know Relly and Dimez took care of business anyways though. We started off digging into Eric Adams being investigated even MORE by the FBI with a new wave of subpeonas.We talk about the latest hijinks at the DNC by the democrats and the suppression of Palestinian voices both speakers and protestors. Relly and Dimez recounted Relly’s action this week and the latest success there. Crystul Kizer is an example of the system being built to fail Black women, and we reviewed the despicable ruling on her case in Wisconsin. We also reviewed two new updates on the appeals process for Marcellus Williams. It’s a heavy matter but so important. Keep sharing his story and petition! We end the episode on a lighter note, visiting the ongoing epidemic of men being misogynistic on podcasts with a roasting session. Dimez also recounts the S.W.A.R x The Door outing where they checked out this much needed resource directed towards queer and trans youth in NYC, resources still available to all.Follow & listen wherever you get your podcasts: https://rss.com/podcasts/unapologetictawk/?listen-on=true Don’t forget to leave us a nice rating :)Follow the podcast on socials:Instagram: @unapologetictawk Tik Tok: @unapologetictawkFollow Relly: @rellyrebel Follow Dimez: @dimez_cartierFollow Rudy: @shacqealRudy is the creator of Blacksky, an algorithm to connect Black users on Bluesky and the basis for other community algorithms on Bluesky.

We are back after a little break last week. We start by discussing yet another murder of a Black woman, Sonya Massey, by a cop in the United States of America. Relly and Dimez discuss their respective actions that they organized in response to the murder, and the cyclical nature of this trauma. We also catch up on everything we missed in the Presidential race including Kamala Harris's presidential run and all the pandering that comes with that. We react to Trump's meltdown at the NABJ conference where he continued his history of racism by questioning Kamala Harris's Blackness.Follow & listen wherever you get your podcasts: https://rss.com/podcasts/unapologetictawk/?listen-on=true Don’t forget to leave us a nice rating :)Follow the podcast on socials:Instagram: @unapologetictawk Tik Tok: @unapologetictawkFollow Relly: @rellyrebel Follow Dimez: @dimez_cartierFollow Rudy: @shacqealRudy is the creator of Blacksky, an algorithm to connect Black users on Bluesky and the basis for other community algorithms on Bluesky.

We spend most of this week breaking down the sick joke that was the Presidential debate last week, and wondering how we got to the point where two geriatric villains are auditioning to be the most powerful men in the world. We touch on their general sundowning, their responses on Israel-Palestine questions, and more.Then, we talk about NYPD Commissioner Eddie Caban being exposed for systematizing police abuse coverups through administrative tactics. This leads to a larger discussion on the abuse of authority rampant in the upper ranks of the NYPD and city government. We end by capping off Pride Month and discussing the familiar annual pinkwashing, and the difference between the Queer Liberation March and the Corporate Pride Parade.Check out our website: www.unapologetictawk.com Subscribe & watch the episode on Youtube: youtube.com/@UnapologeticTawkPodcast?si=dxnIvfV5Jaivqg6- Follow & listen wherever you get your podcasts: https://rss.com/podcasts/unapologetictawk/?listen-on=true Don’t forget to leave us a nice rating :)Follow the podcast on socials:Instagram: @unapologetictawk Tik Tok: @unapologetictawkFollow Relly: @rellyrebel Follow Dimez: @dimez_cartierFollow Rudy: @shacqealRudy is the creator of Blacksky, an algorithm to connect Black users on Bluesky and the basis for other community algorithms on BlueskyFollow Rudy on BlueskySupport Blacksky on Open CollectiveRudy also created Papertree.earth, a joint bank account for community groups to collectively manage finances.We The People NYC is a community-led mutual aid group that runs a hot food & clothes distro every Thursday @ 1PM on the corner of Fulton & Nostrand in Bed-Stuy & every Saturday @ 1PM on 125th Street & Lexington Ave in Harlem.Check out more info at wethepeople.nyc or @wethepeople_nyc on InstagramJoin the Stonewall Was A Riot!

We review the footage of Maddrey letting a retired cop walk out of the station after voiding his arrest. Relly and Dimez recount two weeks of protesting the dirty 67th precinct, including Relly’s bogus arrest.

In this episode we have guests Brian Cummings and Shakeem Hinds in the studio with Relly! Rolling in on good energy, we start off with an introduction to our guests, who they are and what they do. Then we get into the hot topic - NYPD harassing Brian and Shakeem last week while they were chilling out front of their nephews house in a nice car. The officers were known to them having harassed them before, and the incident ended in arrests.We dissect the video of the incident with our guests telling their side of the story, and then topic gets more nuanced: patterns of NYPD harassment, criminalization of Black success, and how this all relates to bigger themes in our everyday lives.This is just the start for Brian and Shakeem as they spread their story and fight for accountability from the NYPD.Follow Brian on IG @hatebeinsober151Rent his luxury vehicles: @geezysentertainmentwww.geezysentertainment.com Follow Shakeem on Instagram @hindschauffeur for executive chauffeur services!

This week we are in the studio with Carl Ellis Grant, an actor, comedian, former NASA engineer, and much more. We start off interviewing Carl about his experience at NASA, his experiences in standup comedy and curating the Brooklyn Dreams comedy, his acting career, and the tech world. We then dive into the time the Unapologetic Tawk team first met Carl last year.Carl was assaulted by NYPD officer Emile Pratt, who also assaulted a 13 yr old on camera weeks later. Relly, Dimez and the protest community went out to hold the transit precinct accountable. Carl and the team recount the events, and delve into Carl’s relationship to the police and his family, using standup comedy to find healing, and holding the police accountable. Midway through the topic the team makes an exciting discovery live - its Breaking News!This discussion leads naturally to the recent protest by Relly and team against dirty NYPD Captain Adan Munoz of the 79th precinct in Bedstuy.

We got a packed episode this week! We started recording only about an hour after the earthquake hit NYC on Friday, so you know we had to dig into that. Then Dimez fills us in on Stonewall Was A Riot’s action taking a visit to the residence of the KKKaren, Christine Thierry, to demand further accountability for her racist attack.We then get into the viral dismantling of Eric Adams on the Breakfast Club last week, shout out to Olay. We give our own take on a few of the topics brought up during that interview– including the murder of Win Rosario, a 19-year-old shot by the NYPD while going through a mental health crisis, and the shooting death of a NYPD officer and subsequent drama of Kathy Hochul getting turned away at his funeral. We also use it as an opportunity to talk about more of Eric Adams corrupt ties, and discuss the further updates on the Diddy case.We touch on the recent occupation of Zuccotti Park in Manhattan to demand actions in solidarity with the people of Gaza, and catch up on the brutal missile attack by the IOF on World Central Kitchen Aid workers. We round out the episode with discussion of the NYPD’s announcement that it will begin using AI scanners to try to detect weapons in the subway, including looking at the AI technology’s faulty history. And then we react to and discuss a recent clip of an NYPD Captain (named Adan Munoz from the 79th Precinct) assaulting a Black man in Bed-Stuy, including gun butting him, over tinted windows. We end on a lighter note by discussing the growing beef between Kendrick and J. Cole, react to their respective verses, and lament how the hip hop landscape has changed along with the beefs.

This week we are joined by our comrade Al from Bluestockings NYC, New York’s only queer, trans & sex worker owned bookstore– located in the Lower East Side in Manhattan! We talk about Bluestockings’ important role in providing a safe community space for a variety of individuals and groups, and Al educates us on the ins and outs of harm reduction– how to spot an overdose, the origins of fentanyl and other new drugs on the scene, and larger structural critiques of drug policy. We also discuss their sex work and what it was like opening up to people about that work.
