Ransom Notes: Episode 5

Ransom Notes

Content Warning: This will contain language, beliefs, references and information that may offend listeners.

a note:

First off, I want to confess that, yes this episode is being released on May Day, and no I dropped the ball on including any samples or songs in tribute to the occasion. I recommend heading over to the Channel Zero Network for your May Day podcasting needs.

In this episode you can hear topics ranging from black trans women's liberation to the abhorrent conditions of prisons and detention centers within the United States during the COVID19 pandemic (COVID-19 Michigan Prisoner Support).

Final note, as usual this episode focuses on hip-hop, however it delves into some noisier grindcore and noise rap tracks that may catch you by surprise.

Stay safe, mask up and hold it down for your people. 😷
