White shopkeeper Carolyn Bryant accused the black youth of flirting with her, and shortly thereafter, Till was abducted by Bryant’s husband and his half brother. Till’s tortured body was later found in the Tallahatchie River. The two men were tried and acquitted but later sold their murder confession to Look magazine.

After taking a variety of jobs, he became a bantamweight boxer in Liverpool at age 16 and by age 17 had become a lightweight champion.<br />With 42 professional bouts behind him, Bullard finally achieved his childhood dream on November 28, 1913, when he arrived in Paris. On August 3, 1914, Germany declared war on France, and the next day its armies invaded France and neutral Belgium.<br /><br /> Bullard, though still an American citizen, decided that he wanted to defend the country in which he had sought equality. He joined the Foreign Legion on October 19.<br /><br />As a soldier in the Legion’s 3rd Régiment de Marche and later the 170th Régiment de Ligne, Bullard fought in the Champagne and Verdun campaigns with such distinction that he was awarded the Croix de Guerre with Star as well as the Médaille Militaire. He was wounded three times, the last—on March 5, 1916—leaving him too disabled for further infantry service. It was then that Bullard thought of rejoining the fight as an aviator, his ambition stoked by that friendly wager at the Café Copoule.<br /><br /><br /><br />With the help of some influential friends, Bullard was accepted into the French Aéronautique Militaire as a machine-gunner. He started training at Cazaux on October 6, but while there he met a fellow Legionnaire, Edmond Charles Clinton Genet, who had already qualified as a pilot and was on hand for gunnery training.<br />Genet told Bullard about the Lafayette Flying Corps, an organization for farming American volunteers out to French squadrons, and explained that Helen Vanderbilt had established a fund from which its pilots could draw 50 francs (then about $30) a month (at that point Bullard’s Legion pay was a miserly 30 cents per month).

Allensworth was meant to be a refuge away from the oppression that Black people faced amidst society and aimed to be wholly self-reliant. <br /><br />The town of Allensworth ran largely off of agricultural pursuits, but contained its own small businesses and school district by 1912.

For some Donald Trump was a great president. For others he is and was the worst President in American History. No matter what side you are on, the one thing that should be clear is that he has set off a chain of events that has now damaged and challenged our Democracy. <br /><br />From damaging remarks he has made towards women, to kicking out muslims from his rally just because he saw a turban, to separating hundreds of kids from their parents, To the lies he has told about a rigged election and now the insurrection that has cause 6 lives. The legacy of Trump will not be a good one! <br /><br />On this episode I try to come from a place of teaching and not judgement.  I only want to educate and unify and not judge and divide.

For some Donald Trump was a great president. For others he is and was the worst President in American History. No matter what side you are on, the one thing that should be clear is that he has set off a chain of events that has now damaged and challenged our Democracy. <br /><br />From damaging remarks he has made towards women, to kicking out muslims from his rally just because he saw a turban, to separating hundreds of kids from their parents, To the lies he has told about a rigged election and now the insurrection that has cause 6 lives. The legacy of Trump will not be a good one! <br /><br />On this episode I try to come from a place of teaching and not judgement.  I only want to educate and unify and not judge and divide. Learn my take on the election, what Donald Trump could have done to win the election and was he responsible for the insurrection that took place on January 6, 2020<br /><br />DON'T FORGET TO RATE, COMMENT AND SUBSCRIBE<br /><br />JOIN ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA<br /><br /><a href="https://www.facebook.com/CenasCorner1101" rel="noopener">https://www.facebook.com/CenasCorner1101</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.twitter.com/cena5401" rel="noopener">www.twitter.com/cena5401</a><br /><br /><a href="mailto:cenascorner11@gmail.com">cenascorner11@gmail.com</a><br /><br />Cover Art and Logo created by Jacob Verdajo<br /><br />Sound Mixing and editing by David McClam<br /><br />Intro and outro jingle by Keith Cramer<br /><br />Check out my other podcast A Day With Crime <br /><br />SPREAKER<br /><a href="https://www.spreaker.com/show/a-day-with-crime-podcast" rel="noopener">https://www.spreaker.com/show/a-day-with-crime-podcast</a><br /><br />ITUNES AND IOS<br /><a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/a-day-with-crime-podcast/id1378710724" rel="noopener">https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/a-day-with-crime-podcast/id1378710724</a><br /><br />GOOGLE PLAY AND ANDROID<br /><a href="https://play.google.com/music/m/Ij5445zg22lvnomustpid6cpth4?t=A_Day_With_Crime_Podcast" rel="noopener">https://play.google.com/music/m/Ij5445zg22lvnomustpid6cpth4?t=A_Day_With_Crime_Podcast</a><br /><br /><br /><br />INFORMATION USED FOR RESEARCH IN THIS EPISODE<br /><br />CENTRAL PARK 5 EPISODE ON A DAY WITH CRIME PODCAST<br /><a href="https://www.spreaker.com/episode/40033815" rel="noopener">https://www.spreaker.com/episode/40033815</a><br /><br />GEORGE FLOYD: PROVING THE FACTS EPISODE ON A DAY WITH CRIME PODCAST<br /><a href="https://www.spreaker.com/episode/40033777" rel="noopener">https://www.spreaker.com/episode/40033777</a><br /><br />IT'S A SHAME TRUMP VOTERS REACT TO INSURRECTION<br /><a href="https://www.npr.org/2021/01/07/954535444/its-just-a-shame-trump-voters-react-to-insurrection-at-u-s-capitol" rel="noopener">https://www.npr.org/2021/01/07/954535444/its-just-a-shame-trump-voters-react-to-insurrection-at-u-s-capitol</a><br /><br />FACT CHECK: JOE BIDEN CONDEMNED PROTEST RELATED VIOLENCE<br /><a href="https://www.usatoday.com/.../fact-check-joe.../6576824002/" rel="noopener">https://www.usatoday.com/.../fact-check-joe.../6576824002/</a><br /><br />COWARD: MAGA INTERNET TURNS ON TRUMP<br /><a href="https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2141109198554/coward-maga-internet-turns-on-trump?s=oldSite&ss=i4" rel="noopener">https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2141109198554/coward-maga-internet-turns-on-trump?s=oldSite&ss=i4</a><br /><br />INCITEMENT: A TIME LINE OF TRUMP'S INFLAMMATORY RHETORIC BEFORE RIOT<br /><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/jan/07/trump-incitement-inflammatory-rhetoric-capitol-riot" rel="noopener">https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/jan/07/trump-incitement-inflammatory-rhetoric-capitol-riot</a><br /><br />QUOTES BY 4 DEMOCRATS TWISTED TO MAKE IT LOOK LIKE THEY ENDORSED RIOTS<br /><a href="https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2021/jan/07/facebook-posts/quotes-4-democrats-twisted-make-it-look-they-endor/"...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>4187</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>clean</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/4704bb87afe2bf3ce5a513f83755e3e9.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>The Shooting Of Jacob Blake</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-shooting-of-jacob-blake--40598285</link><description><![CDATA[On August 23,2020 in Wisconsin, Jacob Blake was shot.

So much to know so much equipment, it is hard to make a decision especially if you are just starting out. In this episode, I tell you all about what you will need to start a podcast from the least expensive to the most. I tell you my thoughts on what I think with all the advice of starting on a phone. I tell you about a couple hosting services for podcast as well as the one we were using at the time. <br /><br />Since the shooting of this something have changed for this as well as my other podcast. We are now with Spreaker on a program with them. This podcast is still uploaded by way of Anchor as we are still trying them out and we do like some of the extra features for the audience like messages.  Some prices on the equipment may have changed, but my endorsement and love for Sweetwater has not. <br /><br />I hope you get a lot out of this episode.
