We caught up with Immortal Technique who gave us an incredible 2 part interview. The first focuses on the recent Sean Bell verdict and New York’s lack of reaction. He breaks things down and talks about how and why the big apple has become a police state. Immortal makes the connection to what has been happening with out of control police here in NY and the growing fascism throughout the rest of the world-in particular Latin America. Immortal also talked about his new project called the Police Abuse Chronicles. He is currently collecting first hand accounts of police abuse and plans to bring them before the United Nations. He is hoping to hold some sort of Tribunal. We end the first part of the interview on that note. In part2 of our interview with Immortal Technique he starts off by talking about his goals with his newly launched ‘Police State Chronicles’ project. This is the endeavor Technique has which involves him collecting stories of police abuse which he hopes to deliver to the United Nations.

Next, Immortal gives a serious run down on the recent drama surrounding Presidential hopeful Barack Obama. He talks about the importance of Obama’s former pastor, Reverend Jeremiah Wright speaking his truth about America’s oppression and how historically America has crushed perspectives like his by labeling them anti-American, pro-communist or ridiculous. Immortal talks about the corner Obama has been backed into and lays out why he thinks Hillary Clinton and the Republicans have worked together behind the scenes to try and cripple and ultimately take away Obama’s presidential bid. Immortal concludes this interview by talking frankly about the Latino vote and the role it will play in the 2008 elections. He talks about the meetings Republican candidate John McCain has had with California governor Arnold Scwartznegger and how that may possibly lead to McCain obtaining a sizeable portion of the Latino vote. He noted that slowly but surely McCain has been making moves behind the scenes and Obama will have to do a lot more than have New Mexico governor Bill Richardson at his side to attract those voters.
