systematic targeting in quote cell crow and how they dismantled the black power movement the black panther party and other organizations that were fighting against police brutality so it is definitely a target against you know people of color who are rising up you see the republicans in places like minnesota trying to criminalize protesting by allowing it people in the vehicles to run over protesters without any criminal charges so there's definitely been a systematic attempt to stifle any protest to stifle any dissent and so qual the movement that's been around black lives that's been really prominent and really igniting a lot of people to stand up in the fight back so we don't see the republican party we see trump and even the democratic party definitely targeting organizations that are focusing on black liberation dollars or scruggs thank you and that's it for the show will be back on saturday with reaction to today's budget from the form of i shared a conservative party to the shadow chief secretary to the british treasury children give it a try to show media we'll see on saturday seventy ye
