Episode 24: Spotting Karens in the Wild and Two Staples

TOPICS: Stonewall Was A Riot Mutual Aid, Hate Crime Committed by NYC School Teacher, Violent Arrests at a Protest Outside Dirty Cop's Home, NYPD Dance Team Performance Goes Viral

The hosts bring you an episode full of hot recent events. First Dimez brings a final rundown on the Stonewall Was A Riot mutual aid actions at Tompkins Square Park. Then Dimez describes the hate crime committed against them en route to an action, and the subsequent SWAR actions to hold this TEACHER KKKaren accountable. You know SWAR gets it done!

Next is a discussion on the other recent protest actions the team has done to hold dirty cops accountable. As always, the NYPD responded with escalation and violence even throughout jail support, as well as targeted repression tactics. NYPD proceeded to roll out a laughable copaganda compaign to spin the action, including news segments and NYPD top brass having a conniption on twitter, for some reason.

This is a discussion that spans the web of accountability, COINTELPRO, and strategy.

This episode ends on a lighter note with the team having a laugh at the NYPD’s other recent attempt at copaganda - the NYPD dance team.
