Interesting.
From the WKCR website:
Our website is experiencing intermittent outages due to an excess of connections (over 13k). The best way to listen to WKCR is by tuning in on FM radio at 89.9 if you're in the New York Metro area.
The second best way is to click this link: https://wkcr.streamguys1.com/live.m3u. This link will download a file that will enable you to listen to our live broadcast on your device's default media player (i.e. your computer's Music app).
I'm not sure what I was expecting, but it wasn't freestyle jazz.
Hold strong!

I love Americas commitment to free speech and the right to protest until it becomes inconvenient
It's inconvenient to the people in charge
I'd argue effective protest should be met with resistance. How else would it be civil disobedience if you werent disobeying anyone?
Think of Charlottesville. Now that was not a protest where I appreciated the message but can you name any of the 1000 white nationalist marches since?
The difference being the counter protests brought more attention to the movement.
Think of the pussy hat protests.
Huge protests but pretty unremarkable in retrospect. Yes they followed the rules and got permitting etc. etc. At the end of the day though they went home and settled in.
Jan 6th is another example.
BLM was all encompassing at the time of its inception. The timing on that whole movement was very unfortunate. The end of the day people saw them as riots and not protests. Which was completely the media's fault.
Fuck you I won't do what you tell me.
Plead with the Machine for to See Reason.
Feeling free yet?
If you are in NY you should get out there now.
The NYPD’s third favorite thing after playing Candy Crush on the job and harassing minorities is escalating protestors into violence. Keep a cool head if you’re out there!
""" Within minutes of the assault on the building, Columbia University officials said they had no choice but to request police intervention.
"We regret that protesters have chosen to escalate the situation through their actions," """
The Columbia administration forgetting they have nothing without the students. One person gets yelled at and they clutch their pearls and call the bastards in to beat and arrest peaceful protesters. They are escalating things, not the students.
Students asking to expunge arrests related to these protests should be putting on their resume they are willing to stand up for their rights and the rights of others without a voice. The university and cops are the ones who should be embarrassed and ashamed.
I wonder if Mayor Cop would say the same thing about a police union protest?
Or a Neo Nazi / white supremacist protest
Did you need to repeat what they said?
Ah, you are correct. My bad
Yet people still think we don't live in a police state.
As if this will stop protests?! Those in charge have never read a history book.
The police protect the money first and foremost.
They're the enforcers of the rich. As it always was.
Isn’t he a Democrat? Why would he say that?
He used to be police. “Law and order” democrats are always idiots.
You know, this is exactly why the West hates terrorism.
It works, but doesn't cost a ton of money.
If it wasn't for Hamas attacking Israel, none of these people would care about the continued oppression of Palestinians.
Fuck zionists.
