Content/Trigger Warning: Protest agitation, gaslighting, false narratives, police harassment, racism, systemic injustice Interview with a local leader of Black Lives Matter, seeking to flush out some truth in our 'alternative facts', 'post-truth' environment that we all find ourselves in. The opening comes from videos of the Friday protest that we actually discuss in the interview, taken by one of the counter-protestors, a self-proclaimed Proud Boy, who can be heard agitating protestors.  Please visit BlackLivesMatter.com to gather information for yourself about the national organization and Black Lives Matter Pasco to find information about the small county one.  A podcast by and for nerds with mental health experience and battles. Several of us have counseling degrees and experience and all of us have anxiety (diagnosed or otherwise).  Youtube   |   Facebook   |   Insta   |   Twitter   |   Tumblr   |   Blog Music Credit: Take The Mushroom And Run by septahelix (c) copyright 2020 Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution Noncommercial  (3.0) license. http://dig.ccmixter.org/files/septahelix/60890  --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lifesucks_podcast/support
