Join podcasting siblings Jamie and Bambi as they return to the Jim Crow South to examine the underlying causes of the Camp Logan Mutiny. First we get a picture of where America is at in 1917 and take an uncomfortable look at the laws and social standards of former slave states. Next we learn about the all-black Buffalo Soldiers and their history of brave and honorable service despite the lies told by racist politicians such as Teddy Roosevelt. But when the United States joins World War I the Buffalo Soldiers are called to guard the construction of a training camp for new draftees—Camp Logan in Houston, a bayou town fully embracing white supremacy enforced by a brutal police force. What could possibly go wrong?
In this episode we hope you'll consider donating to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund in their fight for racial justice through litigation, advocacy and public education. We also express support and solidarity with the Atlanta Forest Defenders and encourage you to learn more and help stop Cop City.
