After a hard effort I finally found someone positively exemplary

June 18, 2020 21:09 - 33 minutes - 30.9 MB

It was hard, but not only did we find a positive role model for his city, but we check on whether abolishing and replacing is being discussed properly, if it is the right answer or if people know what it means.  Yes, we are talking about the Police, and the role model mentioned is an officer.  This is The Angry Rican, and you are listening to Real Life is Fake --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

Could we be experiencing a social kidnapping?

June 15, 2020 23:37 - 41 minutes - 38.5 MB

When 2020 began nobody could foresee the mess we would be a part of.  From the threat of WW3, to a pandemic and civil discomfort which in turn has led to cases of police brutality, which in turn have led to riots and strong protests, America has had a year that will not be forgotten.  But we are in a situation in which we are coming to terms with racial injustice and health and economical distress.  Have we been guided to a dialogue or have we been hijacked by subconscious attitudes that mig...
