Description

Today we discussed the oft-practiced "ready-fire-aim" approach used by police. We examine what it means to be a public servant/peace officer, and how when officers fall short of this, people sometimes pay with their lives. The example we use in today's episode is from Idaho Springs, CO where a deaf man Brady Mistic was beaten, arrested, and imprisoned by officers for not complying with orders (again, he is deaf). We also ask the question "How young should a child be before they are taught about race?' We revisit Critical Race Theory and its merits. Our Way Black History Fact is about some of the ways that prisoners were used for profit throughout the history of the United States. Our Ebony Excellence segment is dedicated to NASCAR champion Bubba Wallace.Support the showwww.civiccipher.comFollow us: @CivicCipher

Civic Cipher is a weekly radio show/podcast hosted by Ramses Ja and Q. Ward. This show is dedicated to empowering Black and Brown voices, allowing them to engage directly with their communities as well as the general population. Self-determination is critical to securing a future free of oppressive systems, and Civic Cipher exists to facilitate discussions toward this end. Furthermore, Civic Cipher seeks to inform non-POC allies who may not be privy to these types of discussions and optics. Finally, Civic Cipher seeks to provide long-form conversations in spaces where there is often a lack of significant resources, potent dialogue, or the necessary engagement for facilitating a healthy and productive civil discourse.Facebook/Instagram/Twitter: @civiccipher
