About this listen

In this season premiere, guns are close to home. Our hosts explore their relationship to bearing arms, and how the respect of that right changes based on who holds the gun. They explore the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense and lesser known armed Black self-defense groups. Who are these new Black Panthers defending against ICE? Was MLK a gun owner? What does it mean to be nonviolent and own a gun? The striking similarity between Freedom Summer and Minneapolis.

• This Nonviolent Stuff’ll Get You Killed by Charles E. Cobb
• Freedom Summer
• Black Lion Party for International Solidarity
• Black Panther Party for Self-Defense
• Too Black on Nonviolence
