We weigh in on the chatter about whether the NFL #TakeAKnee protests are about white supremacy or the first amendment. Meanwhile, the so-called “free speech week” hosted by far-right students in Berkeley has utterly failed. The mutual aid relief efforts we’ve covered in Texas and Florida still need support, as well as in Mexico and Puerto Rico after the earthquakes and hurricanes there. {September 27, 2017}   -------SHOW NOTES------   Table of Contents: Introduction {0:00} Headlines {2:28} Repression Roundup {22:15} Anarchist Podcast Jingles {25:18} Prisoner Birthdays {26:59} Next Week’s News {28:35} Upcoming anarchist book fairs: The fourth annual Radical Book Fair in Gothenburg, Sweden from September 28 to October 1.
