- Description
- Boston police officers arrested 108 protesters during an overnight sweep of a pro-Palestinian encampment on the Emerson College campus in Downtown Boston. Both students and police say they were injured during the aggressive clash.
In police camera footage provided to GBH News by the Boston Police Department, an officer is shown reciting the city’s ordinance against encampments through his vehicle’s PA system, warning the crowd that “unlawful camping” is in violation of city laws.
In response to a request from GBH News for all body camera footage within a four-hour span of the sweep, the Boston Police Department did not provide videos of the clearing or arrests.

- Why activists are suing Boston over White Stadium repairs
- Date posted
- 10 hours ago
- Description
- For more than seventy years, White Stadium in Franklin Park has been an athletics destination for the Boston Public Schools. But over the years it's slowly deteriorated, and is now in desperate need of repair. That state of affairs prompted the city to team up with the group behind the Boston Unity, a new professional women's soccer team, to share and completely renovate the stadium.
Mayor Michelle Wu says Boston Public School students will still have plenty of access to the stadium, but a group of local activists say the city is effectively trying to privatize a treasured public space — and they've gone to court to try to stop the deal. Adam Reilly is joined by two of the plaintiffs: Louis Elisa, co-founder and former president of the Franklin Park Coalition, and Renee Stacey Welch, a longtime resident of Roxbury and Jamaica Plain.

- Did the border toll backlash set back MassDOT's efforts to find new ways to fund the T?

- Description
- When Massachusetts transportation secretary Monica Tibbits-Nutt addressed the advocacy group Walk Massachusetts earlier this month, she spoke candidly about both how she approaches her job and the steps she'd like to see the state take to raise money for transportation-related costs. In retrospect though, Tibbits-Nutt may have been too unguarded. Her comments — including a suggestion that the state impose tolls on vehicles entering from elsewhere and a dig at big pickup trucks — blew up among conservatives, who depicted Tibbits-Nutt as a tax-happy progressive elitist. And they earned multiple rebukes from Governor Maura Healey, who made a point of saying that Tibbits-Nutt chose her words poorly.

- She helped break basketball ratings records and bring in millions more viewers for the women's NCAA final than the men's. But those numbers aren't reflected in her rookie contract with the WNBA's Indiana Fever, whihch will pay her only around $76,000 for her first season. Compare that to San Antoni Spurs rookie Victor Wembanyama, who took home a more than $12 million salary, and the gender pay gap in professional basketball looks more like a cavern. NBC Sports Boston host and reporter Trenni Casey joined Crystal Haynes to discuss that and her predictions for the upcoming NFL draft, which could be the most important one for the New England Patriots in decades.

- Food is at the heart of many cultures, and generations-old dishes can become symbols of the places and peoples they come from. But food is also big business. So what happens when celebrity chefs and corporations try to capitalize on cultural dishes? Chef David Chang of Momofuku recently faced a wave of backlash after he tried to enforce trademarks on the popular Asian condiment, chili crisp.

- ShotSpotter aims to detect gunshots instantly. The ACLU says it's ineffective.
- Date posted
- 7 days ago
- Description
- Police in Boston have used ShotSpotter technology since 2007 to notify them when and where gunshots ring out. SoundThinking, the company behind ShotSpotter, has acoustic sensors that are placed around the city — which the company argues help police detect and respond quickly to shootings even if no one makes a 911 call.
With Boston's ShotSpotter contract up for renewal in June, a new report from the ACLU of Massachusetts makes the case that it's an unreliable technology and calls for the city to move on. The ACLU's analysis of more than 1,300 Boston police reports found nearly 70% of ShotSpotter alerts yielded no evidence of shots fired.
Kade Crockford, director of the Technology for Liberty Project at the ACLU of Massachusetts, and Tom Chittum, SoundThinking's senior vice president of Analytics and Forensic Services, join Katie Lannan to discuss ShotSpotter's role and impacts in Boston.

- Afro-Latino Influence in Music, Culture and Politics #basicblackgbh, #Colorism, #AfroLatino
- Date posted

- Description
- Six million people in the United States identify as Afro Latino, according to Pew Research. In Greater Boston, the Afro-Latino population has doubled in the last 20 years according to information from Boston Indicators. Their influence is woven into the fabric of America, notably in music. You can hear that influence in the beats and rhythms of salsa, merengue, reggaetón and Latin jazz. However, Afro-Latino identity is complex, both within and outside of the group due to colorism.
A revision of the United States Census’ new standards for collecting data on race and ethnicity recently announced by the Office of Management and Budget with the goal of being more inclusive of the rise in the country’s growing diversity of people. Advocates are concerned and raised issues, saying the new standards will be exclusionary to Afro-Latinos and will not accurately reflect the experience of racism and disparities they encounter.

- Biden is poised to drive more turnout in Massachusetts. Could this hurt Trump nationwide?
- Date posted
- 14 days ago
- Description
- A new GBH News/CommonWealth Beacon poll conducted by the MassINC Polling Group shows that Massachusetts voters are deeply concerned about political tensions and the prospect of violence in the run-up to November's presidential election — and that, collectively, they're less than enthused by the rematch between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump.
Adam Reilly is joined by Steve Koczela, the president of the MassINC Polling Group, to discuss these findings and also the results of questions focused on local politics, including mixed sentiments around the MBTA Communities Law and the rise of immigration as a subject of intense concern.
