One of The Most Haunting Stories of Modern Day Police Corruption - Jared Fishman
<p>In this gripping and emotionally charged conversation, author Jared Fishman and Judge Calvin Johnson unpack the horrifying case of Henry Glover in post-Katrina New Orleans and the federal investigation that exposed corruption, violence, and systemic failures inside the New Orleans Police Department. Fishman reflects on his journey from international conflict zones to the DOJ, revealing how war, race, policing, and power intersected in one of the most disturbing civil rights cases in modern American history. Together, they explore police cover-ups, the “blue wall” of silence, the moral cost of institutional corruption, and how the Henry Glover case ultimately helped force reforms inside the city’s police department.</p><p>Order Jared Fishman Books Here: https://bookshop.org/a/20190/9781335429261<br>Order Baldwin & Co.

Uncovering Hidden Deaths by Police Officers - Terence Keel
<p>Why are coroner's reports often incomplete or misleading? This deep dive reveals how societal biases, historical disenfranchisement, and a focus on biology over social context create a "coroner's silence," obscuring the true circumstances of many deaths, especially those involving state institutions. </p><p><a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=Terence+Keel&client=safari&hs=NPS&sca_esv=4ad3c19e3125a9e4&sxsrf=ANbL-n6c0NX0tHUyKUIBIE-wnTrkXPDBEQ%3A1777367547929&source=hp&ei=-3nwaYzUNs6iqtsP7beb8Qo&iflsig=AFdpzrgAAAAAafCICwMuUrPdMdwAp3NH2Y5T6ZDJQ-4y&ved=2ahUKEwixjsqMmpCUAxW8nGoFHVuJJtMQgK4QegQIARAD&uact=5&oq=terence+keel+bio&gs_lp=Egdnd3Mtd2l6IhB0ZXJlbmNlIGtlZWwgYmlvMgUQIRigATIFECEYoAEyBRAhGKABMgUQIRigATIFECEYoAFIsBVQAFisE3AAeACQAQCYAV-gAcAIqgECMTa4AQPIAQD4AQGYAhCgApEJwgILEAAYgAQYsQMYgwHCAg4QLhiABBixAxjHARjRA8ICBRAAGIAEwgIREC4YgAQYsQMYgwEYxwEY0QPCAgsQLhiABBjHARjRA8ICCxAuGIAEGLEDGIMBwgIFEC4YgATCAg4QABiABBiKBRixAxiDAcICCBAAGIAEGLEDwgILEC4YgAQYxwEYrwHCAggQLhiABBixA8ICDhAuGIAEGIoFGLEDGIMBwgILEC4YgwEYsQMYgATCAgcQLhiABBgKwgIIEAAYFhgeGArCAgYQABgWGB7CAggQABiABBiiBMICBRAAGO8FwgIFECEYqwKYAwCSBwQxNS4xoAeF4gGyBwQxNS4xuAeRCcIHCDAuNC4xMS4xyAc1gAgB&sclient=gws-wiz&mstk=AUtExfAUws_XHZeViHgWV5sf64n1QzhFu0ePh6ffWbBfHojS0sjhbUduMv9kdjHJlxX1-Z_HT0kMypbTyP-DHtBvHlIL5WHZ2xhxNN1-WH0zDA6RAZwAKfMUjJA29K74JJn1B3wWPiBXxbJDNUO0jb5hOaUdzbX-QgxEhpVTdloeLAJfq74&csui=3">Terence Keel</a> is an interdisciplinary scholar and Professor at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) within the Department of African American Studies and the Institute for Society and Genetics.

What They Fear You Might Learn! -- Nikesha Elise Williams & Taylor Murphy
<p>In this powerful and unflinching dialogue, Nikesha Elise Williams and Taylor Murphy examine Nikesha's book, "The Seven Daughters of Dupree" book. This conversation examines the deep intersections of history, identity, and storytelling through Nikesha's novel spanning 160 years of Black womanhood. The conversation confronts uncomfortable truths about slavery, generational trauma, and the myths America tells about itself—challenging the idea that enslaved people were passive and highlighting the many forms of resistance that have been erased from mainstream narratives.</p><p>Order Nikesha Elise Williams Books Here: https://bookshop.org/a/20190/9781668051948<br>Order Baldwin & Co.
