In this episode, we speak with Richard Tan, criminal defense attorney in Oakland about a lawsuit that challenges the unlawful arrest of Minister King X, a community organizer with California Prison Focus and All of Us or None (AOUON). Though the charges were dropped without a hearing, the arrest report describes him and others as “Black Identity Extremists” and “Black Supremacist Extremists” for his participation in a protest weeks before. On December 4, 2025, civil rights leaders will host a press conference outside the Robert T. Matsui U.S. Courthouse in advance of a hearing in King v. California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) for unconstitutional restrictions against freedom of speech and assembly that disproportionately impact Black and Brown people. The press conference will be livestreamed below: @LSPCMovement @official_MinisterKingXPyeface — Subscribe to this podcast: https://plinkhq.com/i/1637968343?to=page Get in touch: lawanddisorder@kpfa.org Follow us on socials @LawAndDis: https://twitter.com/LawAndDis; https://www.instagram.com/lawanddis/ The post Lawsuit Seeks to Strike Down California Penal Code Used to Arrest Activist Minister King X w/ attorney Richard Tan appeared first on KPFA.
