AFSCME's 1st Black President Retires. Botham Jean Killer Paroled. Renee Good Family Sues ICE

10.1.2026 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: AFSCME's 1st Black President Retires. Botham Jean Killer Paroled. Renee Good Family Sues ICE AFSCME's first Black president, Lee Saunders, is stepping down. I'll talk to him about the changes he's seen in unions over the years and how unions will play a major role in the November election. Dallas pastor Dr. Frederick Haynes III is looking to be the next person to represent Texas' 30th Congressional District. He'll explain why he's the man for the job. The white woman who killed Botham Jean will be paroled after only serving seven of her 10-year sentence. The family of the woman killed by ICE agents in Minneapolis filed two wrongful death lawsuits against the U.S. government and the agent who pulled the trigger. We'll tell you how New Jersey Senator Cory Booker is making moves to block the Plan to rename an aircraft carrier after draft-dodging Trump instead of a Black war hero, Doris Miller. And Roland Martin's book club: Steve Phillips' "Are White Men Smarter Than Everybody Else? Playing Offense in the Fight for Racial Justice in America, Democracy." You don't want to miss that conversation. Black Star Network Partner: Chapter Chapter and its affiliates are not connected with or endorsed by any government entity or the federal Medicare program.
