Discussion on Slave Patrols

Announcing You & Five-O's new podcast, with hosts BJ Council (Owner/Founder of You & Five-O), Harmony Chavis, and Drew Council. With this podcast, we aim to discuss current events surrounding the Black Lives Matter movement, while connecting back to You & Five-O's mission to educate people on safe and lawful interactions with law enforcement. In this first episode, you'll meet the hosts and hear a little about what brings them to our podcast. Then we dive into discussing current events and take a look at historical information surrounding the roots of policing, and how it relates to slave patrols.
