In this episode of Community Connection, Tina Cosby and Contributing Analyst James Patterson discuss the Pendleton Two case with special guest Jauston “Jok” Huerta, a member of the Pendleton Two Defense Committee, Community Advocate w/New Afrikan Independence Movement. They delve into the story of John Cole and Christopher Trotter, two men who stood up against Ku Klux Klan members in 1985 and were sentenced to over 200 years in prison. The conversation touches on the injustices they faced, the lack of support from the community, and the ongoing efforts to secure their release. The episode also features music from Foxy Cayenne, who is on Jauston Huerta’s album “Healium” which is inspired by the Pendleton Two story.
