Before Deciding

When our representatives are making important decisions that impact all of our lives I believe it is important to ask one basic question before making
those decisions,
Is this good for
the children?

Just imagine what our world would be like if that question was asked prior to making decisions about going to war, the environment, education or healthcare.

Our Featured Guests

1.  Sabryyah Abdulah shares with us the history of the Juneteenth Celebration, marking when Black slaves were first notified they were free in Galveston, Texas  a couple months before General Robert E. Lee surrendered the Confederate Army and ended the Civil War.  She talks of the beginning of the celebration in Santa Rosa 50 years ago, and the celebration of the 50th Anniversary of celebrating Juneteenth in Santa Rosa this year under Shelter-in-Place orders due to the COVID-19 pandemic with a ZOOM meeting on Saturday, June 20, 2020, from 1:00 to 4:00 PM.

About our Guest: Sabryyah Abdulah is on the Planning Committee for the Juneteenth Celebration in Santa Rosa. She also is the host and producer of Rebel Blues Radio with Sista Friend  at Radio KWTF 881 FM (Bodega Bay) and streaming live worldwide at https://www.kwtf.net/.

2. Susan Lamont is a long time activist for police accountabilty. She shares some events occuring on Tuesday, June 2, 2020 honoring what would have been the 20th birthday of Andy Lopez, the 13-year old boy shot by Sheriff Deputy Eric Gelhaus on Moorland Avenue southwest of Santa Rosa. Since that killing, the empty lot where he was shot has been purchased by the County and transformed into a beautiful neighborhood park and named Andy's Unity Park in his memory. Andy's mother has invited all who loved Andy to meet there in his memory on Tuesday at 4 PM and she asks folks to practice social distancing and wear masks, and of course, non-violence. Another gathering to grieve Andy and the lack of police accountability and oversight will take place on Tuesday at the Dollar Tree parking lot in the Roseland district of Santa Rosa from 5:00 to 7:00 PM. Susan also gives us an update on the Evelyn Cheatham Ordinance to Support An Effective IOLERO (The Independent Office of Law Enforcement Review and Outreach), whose petition to place it on the November ballot was aborted due to the Shelter-in-Place orders. Now the emphasis is to encourage the County Board of Supervisors to pass the amendment to the ordinance for IOLERO or place it on the ballot in November, which would require no physical gathering of signatures, by means of an online Change.org petition. Listeners are urged to sign the online petition and also call their county supervisor to voice their support.

About our Guest: Susan Lamont is a longtime peace and social justice activist, who is currently affiliated with Sonoma County's Green Party, Police Brutality Coalition and Veterans for Peace. She is also a writer, poet and photographer.
