The C. O. W. S. Bennett Cohen's The Zebra Murders Part 2 #BlackOnWhiteCrime #COINTELPRO #FreedomRides

The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts the 2nd study session on The Zebra Murders: A Season of Killing, Racial Madness and Civil Rights. Authored by Bennett Cohen. Prentice Sanders is classified as a black male and is credited with serving almost 40 full years with the San Francisco Police Department. He joined the force in 1964, at a time when there were very few black officers - and that small number had tiny tenure. Sanders was appointed to the investigate the "zebra murders" towards the end of 1973. This case reportedly involved random White people being killed by random black dudes. These killings took place at the same time that both the Black Panther Party and the nefarious Symbionese Liberation Army were in operation in the Bay Area. In addition to these infamous social clubs, Rev. Jim Jones and the Peoples Temple were well established in San Francisco's Fillmore district by 1973. In fact, Jones talked to his mostly black congregation about these homicides. After one week of study, Gus concluded that the White author, Cohen, is the primary hand writing this book. Mr. Sanders probably retold his life and times to this White Man, but had no authority in constructing how this book was written. Gus could be wrong. Last week we heard about the tiny number of black residents in the San Francisco area during the 1960's. There are still very few black residents in this miniature town. Sanders detailed the lack of black officers on the force in addition to the casual, normalized Racist talk of the White officers. The White author made sure to remind readers that one of the first murder victims was a pretty White girl. **Importantly, it is widely reported that although these killings are reportedly black males killing White people, that is not why these events are branded the "zebra murders." This name reportedly originates from the "Z" radio frequency officers used to communicate about this crime. This may or may not be true. #CaliforniaStateHistory #TheCOWS15Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#
