Jasmyne Cannick is my guest for Women’s History Month. Jasmyne is an award-winning journalist, writer, host, advocate and strategist who thrives at the intersection of race, politics and social issues. She is the main reason that serial predator and Democratic donor Ed Buck was finally arrested and charged due to her advocacy with the families of his Black male victims, who died from meth overdoses in his West Hollywood home. She recently returned from Jamaica, where she worked with the LGBTQ Magazine The Advocate to produce a podcast highlighting the dangers facing Jamaica’s Black queer community. She also helped to produce the Documentary ’41st and Central’ on the Los Angeles Black Panther Party. RIP Gregory Everett!
