THE DEVASTATION OF POLICE INJUSTICE

Fire ALL of the white cops from elsewheres!

What white people don’t understand (or maybe do understand and don’t care) is that if someone Black like me 

who’s never even smoked a cigarette in his life gets targeted by cops and ‘flaked’ (cops plant drugs on me),

then I won’t take a plea deal, will pay for bail, will pay for a lawyer until the charges are finally dismissed while they

continue to do this to countless others who look like me who might’ve smoked a cigarette or more and who cannot

afford bail and who might cop a plea deal, gaining a record. The thing about a record is that someone like me 

could no longer teach CHILDREN chess in school or out. Schools often check to see if you have a record of ANY kind.

But in either scenario, the white cops from elsewheres bypass justice. And if they are fired, they’re rehired elsewheres with a strong police union and a Gofundme to boot.

Unless they’re Black like Cariol Horne. Then the union disappears, and so does her pension after working 19 years 

and with no Gofundme for doing the right thing and keeping a brutalizing white cop from choking out 

yet another Black man while he’s in handcuffs, she’s stuck driving a truck to support her family.

Fortunately now, her case has garnered more attention, but there are so many good cops like Cariol Horne (Black and white)

who are punished or fired while the white cops from elsewheres who brutalize, flake and hashtag are 

often made heads of their departments! Fire ALL of the white cops from elsewheres!

It’s like I’m talking to myself here...

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...
