GARY WEBB AND THE DEATH OF INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM




GARY WEBB AND THE DEATH OF INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM


Gary Webb’s article exposing CIA involvement in crack to fund an illegal war for Reagan/Bush and his assertion

that they pumped it into Black spaces creating the crack epidemic opened the door a notch.

And because of it, white cops from elsewheres, who had previously remained silent, spoke up about how the CIA recruited (and tried to recruit) them to mule in the illegal substance.

Without investigative reporting of which we have zilch, zero, nada, there’s no pressure applied to wars ‘legal’ or illegal.

We cannot find out who specifically  ‘signed’ for the CHASE barge filled with 20tons/ 40,000lbs of cocaine

where that person or persons have to at least see the inside of a courtroom.

We cannot keep a spotlight on the biggest high profile (meaning connected to a banking company that most of us use) drug bust in history!

And out of sight; out of mind. That’s propaganda 101. Advanced propaganda is them turning the truth into a joke like ‘EPSTEIN DIDN’T KILL HIMSELF’.

Without investigative follow up, two Black security guards stand trial (who were just happy to finally get that ‘good job’) for a murder staged to look like a suicide in a cop holding cell.

Talk about the motive, means and opportunity being glaringly obvious!

So who investigates which precincts these inordinate suicides are coming from? Which NY precincts are STILL under investigation for running CHILD rape rings?

Without pressure, the EVIL will NEVER crack.

Can’t wait ‘til we have our own media. Everything changes.

ON REPARATIONS

Never banter with white folk about reparations. It’s like arguing with your boss about wages they haven’t paid you. The only acceptable answer, whether they can give it or not, is “Yeah… You right!” Anything less from them is pure toxicity.

Rigged Legal System

Search words: Rigged Legal System, Gauntlet of oppression, racial profiling throughout  Years ago on jury duty, I was asked to render a ‘fair and impartial’ judgement regarding a young Black man accused of possession on the Upper East Side. There were only two Black people on the jury, myself and another dude. After a very long time, we ended up finding the defendant guilty. That’s the end of the story but not the narrative. The twelve main things I came to realize: 1. Several Black potential jurors were citing a mantra about their unwillingness to participate in a prejudiced judicial system. It was my first time hearing it but should I be called again, I’ll google it and voice my objection in the same way. 2. The suspect was stopped for a broken taillight, but as his wife said when she examined their car at the station, the light was never broken. 3. The white judge, however, ruled that the bust was still legit even though he was clearly stopped for drivin...

WHOEVER CONTROLS THE MEDIA CONTROLS THE NARRATIVE

WHOEVER CONTROLS THE MEDIA CONTROLS THE NARRATIVE White cops NEVER leak to the press that they’re now investigating specific members (by name) of the Aryan Brotherhood. When it’s them, the investigation is ALWAYS ongoing. But when it’s us, they ‘leak’ that Sandra was ‘suicidal’, Cyntoia and Mike Brown and Marissa Alexander were ‘no Angels’, Korryn was ‘unstable’, King was a philanderer, Trayvon engaged in ground n pound because he watched ultimate fighting on tv (or how the media runs with his dad saying that the blood-curdling scream heard on the 911 call of a neighbor was NOT his son. The last time we heard our son give a piercing scream was when he was slightly colicky at 3months old!). Or it was leaked that grandma Eleanor Bumpers came at the armed and armored cops with a kitchen knife so they had to shoot during the no-knock raid on the wrong home. Or the leak that Sean Bell shot at cops first on eve before his wedding day. Or the leak that Tawana Brawley did...
