In The Streets with Beverley Smith: Sleeping While Black (Episode 57) - a podcast by the LMC Radio Network

The LAPD brutally murdered a black couple as they slept. Gives new meaning to the term "Stay Woke".


Kisha Michael, 31, and Marquitan Sandlin, 32, are not alone. Greg Gunn, 58, an unarmed black man, was also murdered by police in Mongomery, Ala.


In Salt Lake City, Abdi Muhammed, 16, is critically wounded after police shot him four times. Abdi was holding a broomstick. Contrast this, if you will, with multiple reports of Caucasians brandishing loaded guns at police officers and are still breathing. Miraculously, the police do not fear white people with loaded weapons, but are terrified of black folk, whether we are unarmed, or carrying cell phones, brooms, or sandwiches.


Two Muslim men and a minor, Muhamedtaha Omar, 23, Adam K. Mekki, 20, and Muhannad A.Tairab, 17, were shot and killed execution-style in Fort Wayne, Indiana. But let's ignore all the recent anti-Muslim rhetoric coming from conservative political circles.


A Washington, D.C. man who was wrongfully convicted by faulty and unreliable FBI forensic practices and spent 28 years in prison has been awarded 13 million dollars. His case sheds light on years of injustice and dozens of cases where innocent people have been destroyed by the FBI's faulty testimony.


US District Court rules (and I quote) "There is no First Amendment right to film the police." Meditate on that.


There was a KKK rally in Anaheim, CA. There were clashes between the Klan and anti-KKK protestors.  Three protestors were stabbed. People were arrested. Guess who were released from custody with no charges.  C'mon. Take a guess.


Stay woke, my peeps. Because Sleeping While Black has already proven fatal.
