Summary

Lurie Daniel Favors delivers a powerful analysis of the ICE shooting of Renee Nicole Good, a white mother killed in her minivan after dropping off her child at school. Favors connects this tragedy to the lesser-known case of Keith Porter, a Black man shot by ICE on New Year's Eve, highlighting the pattern of ICE violence. Through a 'Sankofa' approach, she explores America's historical punishment of 'righteous whites' who challenge whiteness culture, tracing this pattern from Bacon's Rebellion through the Fugitive Slave Acts to today.

0:52.4	And I know that you all are expecting me to start talking about
0:56.0	the shooting that took place in Minneapolis yesterday of one Renee Nicole Good. And we are going to talk
1:02.6	about that shooting. We are actually not going to start there, however, because there's some backstory
1:06.6	that a lot of folks need, and I have not quite seen expressed in the way that I think it needs to be

They're going to muster. They're going to embrace it. That's who they are. And then you've got the white people who are sort of middle of the road, who are wanting to do good things,
