FIRE ALL OF THE WHITE COPS FROM ELSEWHERES PATROLLING AND BRUTALIZING BLACK SPACES!

FIRE ALL OF THE WHITE COPS FROM ELSEWHERES PATROLLING AND BRUTALIZING BLACK SPACES!

When Air Traffic Controllers went on strike for better wages and hours, Reagan fired and replaced ALL who picketed.

And his edict was PERMANENT! Meaning that long after he was no longer President, they STILL couldn’t be hired back!

Fire ALL of the white cops from elsewheres patrolling and brutalizing Black spaces and train and hire within

with mandates from the community itself and watch 95% of our newsfeed just **poof** disappear.

It’s like there’s some sort of spell preventing folk from seeing the obvious.

All we lack is conviction and imagination.

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.
