      Rodney King was nearly beaten to death. Video from that beating was used in the 1992 trial to illustrate how HIS body was a weapon.

      Oscar Grant was killed—KILLED—on video. The cop that killed him served less time in prison than Lauryn Hill did for evading taxes.

      Giving money to the very agencies that kill people—overwhelmingly BLACK PEOPLE—with impunity, even for body cams, is not the answer here.

      The problem here is racism, and most especially anti-blackness. A body cam isn't going to solve that.

      We already know that even well-intentioned people are less likely to feel empathy for pain when it's inflicted on black bodies.

      So, somehow, without even addressing implicit bias or racism itself, we invest in body cams? And this is cause for celebration?

      Think about Ferguson. What would a body cam have changed? I'm guessing nothing. Not. A. Damn. Thing.

      Nixon refused to appoint a special prosecutor in Darren Wilson's case. You're delusional if you think a body cam would gave changed that.

      Eric Garner's killing was caught on camera. And we don't even have word on an indictment, much less a trial.

      Tamir Rice's killing also on camera. Media's already trying to dig up criminal record, not for the man who killed him but for the 12-y-o.

      I haven't even looked at who's getting body cam contracts to profit from black pain and black death. But that's a factor here, too.

          For now, I know this: body cams will not solve shit. Dealing with racism, and dealing with anti-blackness in particular, will.
