About this listen

The hate crime that occurred in Buffalo on May 14 at Tops Grocery Store had been premeditated in a screed shared on Discord and Google Drive by Payton Gendron. In his 180 page manifesto, the white supremacist references the great replacement theory, Dylan Roof, Tucker Carlson, and eco-fascism. While the shooter acted alone, his violence was incited by the far right and their political statements. Today, we discuss the how, why, what, and who. We end this episode by remembering the ten victims for who they are, not how they died;
Pearl Young, Ruth Whitfield, Andre Mackniel, Katherine Massey, Celestine Chaney, Margus Morrison, Hayward Patterson, Roberta Drury, Geraldine Talley, Aaron Salter Jr. What is the Great Replacement Theory?
