Chenjerai takes us back to the summer of 1835, when Black New Yorkers are being kidnapped and sold into slavery in the south. But their friends and families can’t call the cops, because it turns out the kidnappers are the cops…can a group of Black resistance fighters stop it?&nbsp;From Wondery, Crooked Media and PushBlack.Empire City is made with a commitment to ensure the stories of those who were and are still&nbsp;impacted by the NYPD are always part of the stories we tell ourselves about the police, about America, and about democracy.Voices & References:&nbsp;Mariame Kaba: <a href="https://mariamekaba.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://mariamekaba.com/</a>Jon Wells: <a href="https://www.jonathandanielwells.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.jonathandanielwells.com/</a>Wilbur Miller: <a href="https://www.stonybrook.edu/commcms/history/people/_emeriti/miller.php" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.stonybrook.edu/commcms/history/people/_emeriti/miller.php</a>The Kidnapping Club: Wall Street, Slavery, and Resistance on the Eve of the Civil War: <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Kidnapping-Club-Street-Slavery-Resistance/dp/156858752X" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.amazon.com/Kidnapping-Club-Street-Slavery-Resistance/dp/156858752X</a>The Congress of Racial Equality: <a href="https://kinginstitute.stanford.edu/congress-racial-equality-core" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://kinginstitute.stanford.edu/congress-racial-equality-core</a>Follow Empire City: The Untold Origin Story of the NYPD on the Wondery App or wherever you listen to your podcasts.
