Description

Happy Holidays and welcome to the State of Criminal Justice. In our final episode before the holiday break, we’ll cover how the LAPD has been tracking BLM protesters, a city that’s criminalizing charity, and the fight to free Bobby Sneed. In our New Ground segment, we’ll tell you about an inspiring Pen Pal program. 

PushBlack exists because we saw we had to take matters into our own hands, especially when it comes to protecting our communities. As a nonprofit, we rely on small donations from subscribers like you. You make PushBlack happen with your contributions. Most people do 5 or 10 bucks a month, but everything makes a difference. Thanks for supporting the work.
