Listen "Outrage Over Racist Remarks by APD Officers"

Episode Synopsis

This week on the podcast, Lou DiVizio updates you on some statewide headlines including news Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham will be speaking at the DNC in Chicago Tuesday night.

Then, two advocates examine a recording that captures APD officers using racial slurs and violent language, taken moments after police shot and killed a 30-year-old man.

Daniel Williams of the ACLU of New Mexico tells Executive Producer Jeff Proctor why that recorded conversation is indicative of the “culture of aggression” at the Albuquerque Police Department.

Tiffany Jiron of the Coalition to Stop Violence Against Native Women talks to Jeff about the troubled history with APD and the city’s Indigenous community.
