There was the death of \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2014/07/19/nyregion/staten-island-man-dies-after-he-is-put-in-chokehold-during-arrest.html?_r=0\">Eric Garner\u003c/a> and then the fatal shooting of \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2014/08/10/339334625/st-louis-police-black-teen-shot-in-altercation-with-officers\">Michael Brown\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not to mention, the deaths of black women like \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2013/11/11/us/in-detroit-protests-of-shooting-of-woman-who-sought-help.html\">Renisha McBride\u003c/a>, who was shot on the porch of a suburban home when she sought help after she had car trouble, and \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/07/21/424909760/death-of-woman-found-hanged-in-texas-jail-cell-will-be-investigated-as-murder\">Sandra Bland\u003c/a>, who was found dead in her jail cell.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Suddenly people all over the world were talking about Black Lives Matter and using the hashtag.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But what about all the other people who face law enforcement violence — who don’t have a video. Where do they turn?\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>How Should Black and Brown Communities Handle Law Enforcement Violence?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Growing up, Cullors says, she witnessed a significant amount of policing and police repression in her Van Nuys neighborhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"My brother was almost killed by the Sheriff’s Department when he was 19 years old inside of the L.A. County jails. And my mother had nowhere to go. She called the Sheriff’s Department over and over again and they sent her in circles.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This experience is part of the reason why Cullors wants to create a network of rapid responders to help people deal with law enforcement violence. That includes violence at the hand of the police, FBI, ICE officers, California Highway Patrol and correctional officers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We know what to do if an earthquake happens in California. People know what to do if a tornado happens. But what happens when your loved one is killed by the police? When your loved one is killed in a jail cell?\" Cullors says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We don’t know what to do. We’ve seen it time and time again. Families are at a loss. They don’t know who to talk to, they don’t know who to go to because, you don’t go to your murderer to have them give you justice.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Black and brown communities can’t rely on law enforcement to protect black and brown bodies, says Cullors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If your loved one is harmed or killed by law enforcement, if they’re illegally arrested, if there’s a raid on your home, you will be able to call a hotline number that will be staffed 24/7 that can help you navigate the system.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What makes her idea different is that the rapid responders will be people who live in the community and understand what it's like to face law enforcement violence firsthand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It will be a multiracial justice team. Allies can definitely play a role. But really the point is people who are directly impacted, and that often looks like black and brown people, and poor people.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She imagines the first responders could help victims file a complaint against the police. And if the complaint isn’t getting attention, they could help stage a protest in the neighborhood or organize to demand that the officer is fired.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cullors has already \u003ca href=\"https://www.mobilejusticeca.org/caravan/\">mobilized the teams\u003c/a>. They are all over the state, from Sacramento to Orange County (and in between in Oakland, Stockton, Fresno, Salinas, Los Angeles and San Diego). The next step is to train the teams of rapid responders.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>A Platform to Focus Black Voices\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>She's also creating a social media platform specific to issues of law enforcement violence and mass incarceration. It will expand the \u003ca href=\"https://www.mobilejusticeca.org/\">Mobile Justice app\u003c/a> that the ACLU and Ella Baker Center created. It allows people to send a recording of questionable police activity directly to the ACLU.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"\u003ca href=\"http://www.pewinternet.org/2014/01/06/african-americans-and-technology-use/\">We use Twitter and Facebook\u003c/a> to talk about \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/10/19/is-the-internet-changing-the-way-we-talk-about-race\">our stories\u003c/a>, but we don’t own Twitter or Facebook.

Journalist Pendarvis Harshaw takes us to galleries painted on the sides of liquor stores in West Oakland. We'll dance in warehouses in the Bayview, make smoothies with kids in South Berkeley, and listen to classical music in a 1984 Cutlass Supreme in Richmond. Every week, Pen talks to movers and shakers about how the Bay Area shapes what they create, and how they shape the place we call home.","imageSrc":"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Rightnowish-Podcast-Tile-500x500-1.jpg","imageAlt":"KQED Rightnowish with Pendarvis Harshaw","officialWebsiteLink":"/podcasts/rightnowish","meta":{"site":"arts","source":"kqed","order":"5"},"link":"/podcasts/rightnowish","subscribe":{"npr":"https://www.npr.org/podcasts/721590300/rightnowish","rss":"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/programs/rightnowish/feed/podcast","apple":"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rightnowish/id1482187648","stitcher":"https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/kqed/rightnowish","google":"https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vS1FJTkMxMjU5MTY3NDc4","spotify":"https://open.spotify.com/show/7kEJuafTzTVan7B78ttz1I"}},"jerrybrown":{"id":"jerrybrown","title":"The Political Mind of Jerry Brown","tagline":"Lessons from a lifetime in politics","info":"The Political Mind of Jerry Brown brings listeners the wisdom of the former Governor, Mayor, and presidential candidate.
