 (Cephus Johnson)

Uncle Bobby Johnson, also known as the People’s Uncle, has been standing up to police brutality ever since his nephew Oscar Grant was shot and killed by a BART police officer in 2009.

He’s also spent a lot of time supporting families who’ve lost loved ones to police violence. And today he sees a movement that is much bigger than when he first became an activist more than a decade ago.

Guest: Cephus Johnson, aka Uncle Bobby X, founder of the Oscar Grant Foundation and Love Not Blood Campaign.
