THE DEATH OF FREDDIE GRAY, ECONOMIC VIOLENCE AND THE ‘LOOTING’ OF THE BLACK COMMUNITY More so than other cases in this recent spate of deaths at the hands of police, Freddie Gray’s death has allowed the camera aperture to widen to take in the larger picture of economic violence, the life-suffocating impact of systemic unemployment, lack of education and opportunity and the looting of Black communities. Guests: Latoya Francis-Williams and Brother Cliff of Kuumba Report Online. Also, the complete eulogy for Freddie Gray, delivered at Gray’s funeral by the Rev. Jamal Bryant (The recording begins 12 minutes into the show).
