War and Remembering George Harris

Bklyn Combine Podcast

In this week's episode we discuss the prospect of war and many of the conditions that make it a not-so-appealing option for people of color. Way too many young, black men all over this country choose the military over almost any other option based on access and exposure. We get into some dialogue about conflict and the untimely loss of our beloved brother and Brooklyn Mayor, George T. Harris. A street wear expert, chess instructor, and youth advocate, among a host of other specialties; George was a pillar in our community and an encouraging ray of light for all who he came in contact with. The combine members share a few memories and recap his home going celebration. We are the Bklyn Combine, a not-for-profit community organization. We work with schools, community organizations, and dedicated city officials to help provide mentorship, critical education, leadership, and social support programs to youth and young adults in low-income and underserved communities.
