1
00:00:15,130 --> 00:00:22,530
Speaker 1: Pushkin, locked and loaded. The American Patriot Raleigh took to

2
00:00:22,530 --> 00:00:26,890
Speaker 1: the steps of the state Capitol today in a world

3
00:00:26,930 --> 00:00:31,010
Speaker 1: gone haywire. Sometimes art is the only thing that can

4
00:00:31,050 --> 00:00:34,410
Speaker 1: make sense of it all. The Georgia three percenters say

5
00:00:34,410 --> 00:00:39,730
Speaker 1: they are strictly a defensive force. Yeah right. I'm Ashley

6
00:00:39,810 --> 00:00:42,890
Speaker 1: Ford and this is the Chronicles of Now, where we

7
00:00:42,970 --> 00:00:46,770
Speaker 1: ask writers to dream up short stories inspired by the news.

8
00:00:47,130 --> 00:00:49,930
Speaker 1: There are more than five hundred militia groups in the US.

9
00:00:51,090 --> 00:00:53,770
Speaker 1: Right wing militias and vigilante groups have been part of

10
00:00:53,770 --> 00:00:59,890
Speaker 1: the American landscape for decades, but a recent movement seems

11
00:00:59,930 --> 00:01:04,610
Speaker 1: to have focused their attention here to demand those in

12
00:01:04,650 --> 00:01:09,970
Speaker 1: attendance a Trump voters angry at the ongoing lawlessness across America,

13
00:01:10,570 --> 00:01:15,530
Speaker 1: threatening to take matters into their own hands at a

14
00:01:15,610 --> 00:01:19,810
Speaker 1: time of uncertainty. Some law enforcement officials have even blessed

15
00:01:19,930 --> 00:01:23,050
Speaker 1: or turned a blind eye to armed militias upset about

16
00:01:23,090 --> 00:01:26,970
Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter. Recently, a sheriff in Florida made news

17
00:01:27,010 --> 00:01:31,330
Speaker 1: when he issued an unusual statement. Daniels vows that he

18
00:01:31,410 --> 00:01:35,250
Speaker 1: will deputize regular citizens who have gun permits to help

19
00:01:35,290 --> 00:01:39,530
Speaker 1: his department respond should violent protests break out in Clay County.

20
00:01:40,370 --> 00:01:43,330
Speaker 1: It wouldn't be the first time vigilantes have taken matters

21
00:01:43,370 --> 00:01:46,050
Speaker 1: into their own hands. Did the West Bank turn into

22
00:01:46,090 --> 00:01:49,130
Speaker 1: the Wild West? In the days following Hurricane Katrine? How

23
00:01:49,130 --> 00:01:53,530
Speaker 1: many people you shoot? Thirty eight people? Trayvon Martin, an

24
00:01:53,610 --> 00:01:57,690
Speaker 1: unarmed black teenager, was shot down by a white neighborhood watchman.

25
00:01:58,330 --> 00:02:01,930
Speaker 1: Video captures the final moments of Ahmad Arbory's life while

26
00:02:01,970 --> 00:02:05,210
Speaker 1: he was jogging through this brunchway. There's something about, Oh no,

27
00:02:05,450 --> 00:02:09,770
Speaker 1: We're about to lose this power. Dantel dubbed you. Monice,

28
00:02:09,930 --> 00:02:13,290
Speaker 1: is the author of a forthcoming collection of stories, Milk

29
00:02:13,450 --> 00:02:17,730
Speaker 1: Blood Heat. Her story here explores what life might be

30
00:02:17,810 --> 00:02:21,170
Speaker 1: like in a deputized in America. That this is fiction,

31
00:02:21,210 --> 00:02:24,290
Speaker 1: but this is like a very real terror that has

32
00:02:24,370 --> 00:02:32,370
Speaker 1: been going on in this country since its foundations. Within

33
00:02:32,450 --> 00:02:36,410
Speaker 1: hours of the press conference, gun and animal stores throughout

34
00:02:36,410 --> 00:02:43,850
Speaker 1: the county sold out. Customizable metal badges catering to that

35
00:02:44,090 --> 00:02:48,690
Speaker 1: uniquely American appetite for playing cops and robbers were back

36
00:02:48,850 --> 00:02:54,330
Speaker 1: ordered online until late October. Production shut down, as it

37
00:02:54,490 --> 00:02:57,410
Speaker 1: was during the plague, but one could still find the

38
00:02:57,450 --> 00:03:01,450
Speaker 1: golden shaff stars used for cowboys and Indians and though

39
00:03:01,530 --> 00:03:07,130
Speaker 1: slightly marring the illusion, they did in a pinch lawful

40
00:03:07,530 --> 00:03:12,130
Speaker 1: god owners, the sheriff had said, But even if there

41
00:03:12,170 --> 00:03:17,690
Speaker 1: had been something to buy, the phrase wouldn't mean them,

42
00:03:17,690 --> 00:03:21,370
Speaker 1: not Jaya or her two brothers, and not her mother,

43
00:03:21,570 --> 00:03:24,290
Speaker 1: who slept with a pink and silver luger under her

44
00:03:24,290 --> 00:03:27,010
Speaker 1: pillow just in case things went bad in the night.

45
00:03:31,690 --> 00:03:35,770
Speaker 1: Two weeks ago, a man was executed for unpaid parking tickets,

46
00:03:35,970 --> 00:03:39,530
Speaker 1: and yesterday at toddler who'd grabbed a pack of gum

47
00:03:39,570 --> 00:03:42,130
Speaker 1: from a shelf at the Quick Mark was shot as

48
00:03:42,130 --> 00:03:45,050
Speaker 1: soon as his oblivious mother stepped outside the store with

49
00:03:45,210 --> 00:03:48,650
Speaker 1: the child in her arms. Another one they'd heard about.

50
00:03:49,130 --> 00:03:52,890
Speaker 1: She'd been doing nothing, daydreaming on a park bench, but

51
00:03:53,010 --> 00:03:57,530
Speaker 1: they claimed they'd seen a weapon, and anyway, wasn't it

52
00:03:57,570 --> 00:04:03,050
Speaker 1: suspicious the act of her sitting? And we actually incredible

53
00:04:03,050 --> 00:04:07,770
Speaker 1: affirmation that these criminals were anything could become a crime.

54
00:04:07,850 --> 00:04:12,690
Speaker 1: With the Deputize on every corner, watching in grocery stores,

55
00:04:13,210 --> 00:04:17,130
Speaker 1: in car lots and coffee shops, shit like this only

56
00:04:17,170 --> 00:04:21,610
Speaker 1: happens in backwood city. People outside the South were saying,

57
00:04:23,530 --> 00:04:28,250
Speaker 1: we don't do that here. They did that there in

58
00:04:28,450 --> 00:04:34,050
Speaker 1: Chicago and New York and La. The only difference was

59
00:04:34,130 --> 00:04:36,850
Speaker 1: none of their elected officials got on the internet to

60
00:04:36,970 --> 00:04:46,770
Speaker 1: sanction it. Clocking out of work that evening, Jaya was exhausted.

61
00:04:47,370 --> 00:04:50,570
Speaker 1: It had been a stressful day at the store. They'd

62
00:04:50,610 --> 00:04:53,930
Speaker 1: finally gotten in toilet paper and pasta, but there was

63
00:04:54,010 --> 00:04:57,410
Speaker 1: relatively little neat and the lines were still too long.

64
00:04:58,170 --> 00:05:04,330
Speaker 1: No one was happy about anything. One deputized prominent Adams

65
00:05:04,370 --> 00:05:09,090
Speaker 1: Apple no mask, went through her line twice, the first

66
00:05:09,410 --> 00:05:13,330
Speaker 1: with two six packs of light beer, a chicken tender sub,

67
00:05:13,570 --> 00:05:17,170
Speaker 1: and a gallon of store brand sweet tea, the second

68
00:05:17,170 --> 00:05:20,970
Speaker 1: an hour later, for just a TwixT Both times, his

69
00:05:21,090 --> 00:05:32,730
Speaker 1: eyes on her intensely. The sky was streaked cantalope from

70
00:05:32,730 --> 00:05:37,650
Speaker 1: the setting sun, the sidewalk still damp from rain. Jaia

71
00:05:37,770 --> 00:05:41,130
Speaker 1: through the disposable mask her employers had provided her into

72
00:05:41,130 --> 00:05:44,250
Speaker 1: a waste basket and put back on the cloth one

73
00:05:44,370 --> 00:05:48,530
Speaker 1: she brought from home, a black mask with three bold

74
00:05:48,650 --> 00:05:54,730
Speaker 1: white letters B LM. Jaya. We have to be supportive

75
00:05:54,770 --> 00:05:58,570
Speaker 1: of all our customers. We don't get political here, her

76
00:05:58,610 --> 00:06:04,250
Speaker 1: manager had said this with exaggerated patience, Blinking rapidly, her

77
00:06:04,330 --> 00:06:09,130
Speaker 1: soft spotted hands clasped at her chest. Life is what

78
00:06:09,290 --> 00:06:13,210
Speaker 1: you make it, and our company policy centers on positive engagement.

79
00:06:13,850 --> 00:06:17,650
Speaker 1: You understand right. Jaia had looked past her as she

80
00:06:17,770 --> 00:06:21,690
Speaker 1: spoke toward the customer service counter, where two of her

81
00:06:21,730 --> 00:06:26,090
Speaker 1: co workers issued money orders and lotto tickets, their lower

82
00:06:26,170 --> 00:06:29,970
Speaker 1: faces covered by gray scale American flags with a thin

83
00:06:30,090 --> 00:06:35,530
Speaker 1: blue line. Day after day, her manager never said anything

84
00:06:35,610 --> 00:06:40,490
Speaker 1: to them. Jaia decided she wouldn't tell her mother about this.

85
00:06:41,250 --> 00:06:44,450
Speaker 1: That morning, when she'd put the mask on, her mother

86
00:06:44,530 --> 00:06:54,010
Speaker 1: had said, you're asking for trouble. Jaia put her head down,

87
00:06:54,650 --> 00:06:59,250
Speaker 1: shouldered her tote, and began walking. She used to love

88
00:06:59,370 --> 00:07:05,370
Speaker 1: this unoccupied time, the meditative space between leaving a destination

89
00:07:05,810 --> 00:07:12,010
Speaker 1: and arriving someplace else, mused, extrumming through her mind, But

90
00:07:12,170 --> 00:07:16,690
Speaker 1: these days she left her earbuds out, the walks instead,

91
00:07:17,330 --> 00:07:22,610
Speaker 1: filled with static anxiety. Five blocks and she'd be outside

92
00:07:22,610 --> 00:07:25,930
Speaker 1: her second brother's job, where she would buy a smoothie

93
00:07:26,330 --> 00:07:29,530
Speaker 1: and find a table and read until he got off.

94
00:07:30,690 --> 00:07:38,290
Speaker 1: As much as they could. They walked home together. After

95
00:07:38,370 --> 00:07:47,650
Speaker 1: a few minutes, Jaia felt something and increase in intensity

96
00:07:47,890 --> 00:07:51,770
Speaker 1: of the static ticking up her spine. She looked over

97
00:07:51,810 --> 00:07:56,450
Speaker 1: her shoulder and saw several feet back the deputized man

98
00:07:56,690 --> 00:08:01,610
Speaker 1: from her line. Her mother's instructions zipped through her head.

99
00:08:01,850 --> 00:08:07,130
Speaker 1: If it happens to you, find somewhere safe. She quickened

100
00:08:07,170 --> 00:08:11,210
Speaker 1: her pace, eyes darting toward the storefronts around her. A

101
00:08:11,250 --> 00:08:16,170
Speaker 1: furniture boutique, a beauty parlor, a party shop, all shuddered.

102
00:08:17,090 --> 00:08:21,090
Speaker 1: There was nowhere to duck inside. Jaia tried to calm

103
00:08:21,130 --> 00:08:25,090
Speaker 1: her breath. She slid the metal nail file she always

104
00:08:25,130 --> 00:08:28,170
Speaker 1: carried from her pocket and gripped it in her fist.

105
00:08:29,290 --> 00:08:32,530
Speaker 1: As she rounded the corner of the next street, the

106
00:08:32,690 --> 00:08:36,890
Speaker 1: deputized closed the distance between them, grabbing her arm and

107
00:08:37,050 --> 00:08:40,770
Speaker 1: slinging her against the concrete wall of a closed Chinese takeout.

108
00:08:41,450 --> 00:08:44,850
Speaker 1: Jaia heard music from across the street and locked eyes

109
00:08:44,890 --> 00:08:48,290
Speaker 1: with a woman on her balcony. If you can't find

110
00:08:48,330 --> 00:08:53,450
Speaker 1: a safe place, find a witness. After a moment, the

111
00:08:53,610 --> 00:08:57,290
Speaker 1: woman looked away, picked up her portable speaker, and her

112
00:08:57,330 --> 00:09:06,490
Speaker 1: read inside. Once the sliding door closed, they were alone.

113
00:09:08,010 --> 00:09:12,410
Speaker 1: He pressed jay Heard against the wall and smiled, blocking

114
00:09:12,410 --> 00:09:15,730
Speaker 1: her with his body, one hand flat against her chest,

115
00:09:16,050 --> 00:09:21,410
Speaker 1: the other on his gun. His badge was plastic, likely

116
00:09:21,450 --> 00:09:25,050
Speaker 1: a last resort purchased from the local dollar store, and

117
00:09:25,650 --> 00:09:29,170
Speaker 1: briefly she wondered what he'd done with the playcuffs. It

118
00:09:29,250 --> 00:09:33,570
Speaker 1: was surely packaged with But it didn't matter what the

119
00:09:33,610 --> 00:09:36,210
Speaker 1: badge was made of, or that it was a toy.

120
00:09:36,970 --> 00:09:44,690
Speaker 1: It only mattered that he believed in it. Do you know?

121
00:09:45,490 --> 00:09:52,010
Speaker 1: He asked her, why you're being detained? He sounded so polite,

122
00:09:52,770 --> 00:09:56,970
Speaker 1: so normal. He could have been saying, how are you today?

123
00:09:57,570 --> 00:10:02,290
Speaker 1: This common man? With her heart beneath his hand, he

124
00:10:02,490 --> 00:10:06,810
Speaker 1: let up on her and pulled the mask from her mouth. This,

125
00:10:07,570 --> 00:10:12,530
Speaker 1: he said, fingering the cloth. Well, it's defamation of character,

126
00:10:12,650 --> 00:10:17,050
Speaker 1: plain and simple, the same language they now used whenever

127
00:10:17,090 --> 00:10:21,490
Speaker 1: a journalist was killed. She knew enough to know what

128
00:10:21,610 --> 00:10:26,330
Speaker 1: happened next. If she was lucky, there might be outrage,

129
00:10:26,370 --> 00:10:31,650
Speaker 1: a new hashtag on Twitter. And if she wasn't lucky, well,

130
00:10:35,290 --> 00:10:39,250
Speaker 1: Jaya's hand tensed around the nail file. He wouldn't expect

131
00:10:39,250 --> 00:10:44,130
Speaker 1: her to fight, which meant she must. In her head,

132
00:10:44,490 --> 00:10:49,410
Speaker 1: her mother held her said, don't let them see you

133
00:10:49,610 --> 00:11:01,690
Speaker 1: beg That was in Jama Kumara narrating What We Make

134
00:11:01,770 --> 00:11:06,650
Speaker 1: It by Dantio w Monice Hi Dantio Hi Ashley. The

135
00:11:06,730 --> 00:11:10,570
Speaker 1: news hook for your story involves the sheriff of Clay County, Florida,

136
00:11:10,690 --> 00:11:15,410
Speaker 1: near Jacksonville, who recently said he'd deputized every gun owner

137
00:11:15,490 --> 00:11:19,250
Speaker 1: if his deputies couldn't handle Black Lives Matter protesters. I

138
00:11:19,330 --> 00:11:22,370
Speaker 1: remember when that was said, and I remember a distinct

139
00:11:22,570 --> 00:11:25,610
Speaker 1: chill down my spine at hearing someone say that, I

140
00:11:25,650 --> 00:11:29,090
Speaker 1: guess out loud. What did you think when you first

141
00:11:29,130 --> 00:11:33,050
Speaker 1: heard about that. I mean, honestly, it froze me. I

142
00:11:33,130 --> 00:11:37,250
Speaker 1: was looking and seeing the headline, and I thought, wow,

143
00:11:37,290 --> 00:11:41,050
Speaker 1: this is something that so many people feel. It already happens.

144
00:11:41,090 --> 00:11:43,770
Speaker 1: There's vigilantes that, you know, neighborhood watch. If you look

145
00:11:43,810 --> 00:11:46,130
Speaker 1: at something as simple as Trayvon Martin, that would have

146
00:11:46,170 --> 00:11:49,130
Speaker 1: been a situation of a deputized person. But just to

147
00:11:49,170 --> 00:11:52,770
Speaker 1: hear someone say it out loud and for whatever nefarious purposes,

148
00:11:52,810 --> 00:11:54,610
Speaker 1: like you know this person is up for reelection, Oh

149
00:11:54,650 --> 00:11:56,250
Speaker 1: I'm going to get on the good side of these people,

150
00:11:56,570 --> 00:11:59,850
Speaker 1: It just felt like that's a moment that needs to

151
00:11:59,930 --> 00:12:03,570
Speaker 1: be looked at, that needs to be examined. That Sheriff

152
00:12:03,810 --> 00:12:09,290
Speaker 1: Darryl Daniels is himself a black man. Yeah, yeah, What

153
00:12:09,330 --> 00:12:13,170
Speaker 1: do you make of a black law enforcement official appealing

154
00:12:13,210 --> 00:12:16,850
Speaker 1: to gun owners in a southern state. So that is

155
00:12:16,890 --> 00:12:20,130
Speaker 1: the other complicated part of the story that I chose

156
00:12:20,250 --> 00:12:23,490
Speaker 1: not to for the purposes of the story, you know, portray,

157
00:12:23,690 --> 00:12:28,010
Speaker 1: But I felt as if it made sense to me.

158
00:12:28,050 --> 00:12:30,090
Speaker 1: It seems that, you know, if this is someone who

159
00:12:30,250 --> 00:12:34,650
Speaker 1: is an accounty that upholds these kind of patriotic, you know,

160
00:12:34,810 --> 00:12:38,090
Speaker 1: type of laws, that this person who's so desperate to

161
00:12:38,490 --> 00:12:40,810
Speaker 1: gain that footholds that he seemed this power that he

162
00:12:40,850 --> 00:12:43,450
Speaker 1: has seems that they would do anything. And so to me,

163
00:12:43,810 --> 00:12:45,690
Speaker 1: it falls in line with I don't know, can I

164
00:12:45,690 --> 00:12:50,890
Speaker 1: say coonery? Is that allowed me? Yeah? I just felt like, okay,

165
00:12:50,930 --> 00:12:54,010
Speaker 1: so this is someone who has been given power who

166
00:12:54,010 --> 00:12:56,490
Speaker 1: feels like they want to keep it by whatever means,

167
00:12:56,490 --> 00:12:58,890
Speaker 1: and if that appeals to him to say, oh, let's

168
00:12:58,890 --> 00:13:02,210
Speaker 1: shoot down protesters in the street, then let's do that.

169
00:13:02,290 --> 00:13:04,090
Speaker 1: And that's a little bit of evil that also is

170
00:13:04,410 --> 00:13:08,250
Speaker 1: just chilling. Oh yeah, but a tale is all this time? Yeah?

171
00:13:08,450 --> 00:13:11,290
Speaker 1: How person, Sinol was this story to you? Did you

172
00:13:11,370 --> 00:13:13,930
Speaker 1: draw from experiences in your own life in order to

173
00:13:13,970 --> 00:13:17,010
Speaker 1: write it? I mean, you know, at a base level,

174
00:13:17,130 --> 00:13:20,650
Speaker 1: if you are a black woman who lives in America,

175
00:13:21,050 --> 00:13:27,130
Speaker 1: you have consciously or unconsciously experienced prejudices and racism against you.

176
00:13:27,250 --> 00:13:29,250
Speaker 1: So you know, it's it's easy in that way. But

177
00:13:29,330 --> 00:13:32,130
Speaker 1: for me, I just thought, what would be the most

178
00:13:32,250 --> 00:13:35,250
Speaker 1: terrifying thing, And the most terrifying thing is to go

179
00:13:35,330 --> 00:13:37,810
Speaker 1: through life not being able to believe in what you

180
00:13:37,850 --> 00:13:41,090
Speaker 1: believe in, being attacked for what you believe in, and

181
00:13:41,130 --> 00:13:44,930
Speaker 1: then being killed for what you believe in. And whether

182
00:13:44,970 --> 00:13:47,810
Speaker 1: you know, whether you think Jaya at the end dies

183
00:13:47,930 --> 00:13:49,730
Speaker 1: or doesn't die, or you know, that's a little bit

184
00:13:49,810 --> 00:13:53,250
Speaker 1: I've left a little bit ambivalent, But it's terrifying and

185
00:13:53,610 --> 00:13:57,010
Speaker 1: it's real. It's what happens every day in this country.

186
00:13:57,930 --> 00:14:01,970
Speaker 1: Poles show that large majorities of Americans support Black Lives

187
00:14:01,970 --> 00:14:05,050
Speaker 1: Matter and their aim of eliminating police violence against black

188
00:14:05,090 --> 00:14:10,090
Speaker 1: people specifically. Yet Trump is doing everything can, it seems like,

189
00:14:10,210 --> 00:14:13,810
Speaker 1: to stir up a racist reaction. How do you think

190
00:14:13,810 --> 00:14:15,890
Speaker 1: that's going to play out for him in twenty twenty.

191
00:14:17,210 --> 00:14:19,210
Speaker 1: I think it might work in his favor. I think

192
00:14:19,210 --> 00:14:22,970
Speaker 1: that the people who support him, regardless of countless evidence

193
00:14:23,010 --> 00:14:24,890
Speaker 1: that he is not who he says he is, He

194
00:14:24,930 --> 00:14:27,130
Speaker 1: does not have the intentions for this country that he

195
00:14:27,210 --> 00:14:30,050
Speaker 1: has said that he has. I think that despite all

196
00:14:30,090 --> 00:14:32,850
Speaker 1: of that, these people have like, you know, bought in

197
00:14:33,370 --> 00:14:35,250
Speaker 1: and now they're like, I have to, I have to.

198
00:14:35,410 --> 00:14:37,690
Speaker 1: You know, it's like a bad investment that you've put

199
00:14:37,730 --> 00:14:39,650
Speaker 1: all of your money into, but to take it out

200
00:14:39,650 --> 00:14:43,050
Speaker 1: would be detrimental to not just your economic wealth, but

201
00:14:43,130 --> 00:14:46,610
Speaker 1: also your pride. When I think that Americans cannot suffer

202
00:14:46,970 --> 00:14:49,170
Speaker 1: damage to their pride, it's like almost like the worst

203
00:14:49,170 --> 00:14:53,690
Speaker 1: thing that could happen. So unfortunately, all of the discourse

204
00:14:53,730 --> 00:14:55,570
Speaker 1: that he's doing is working in his favor. But I'm

205
00:14:55,610 --> 00:14:58,330
Speaker 1: hoping that the people who are now becoming more awake

206
00:14:58,570 --> 00:15:01,490
Speaker 1: to the situation, will you use the power that they

207
00:15:01,490 --> 00:15:03,770
Speaker 1: have and the privilege that they have to enact some

208
00:15:03,930 --> 00:15:06,250
Speaker 1: different course than where it looks like we're heading for

209
00:15:06,610 --> 00:15:13,130
Speaker 1: twenty twenty. I hope that you are not right, but

210
00:15:13,250 --> 00:15:16,490
Speaker 1: we'll see saying, you know, I know say, but we'll

211
00:15:16,490 --> 00:15:20,650
Speaker 1: see what happens. It's really interesting. Thank you, Dantill W. Monise,
