    I have a piece forthcoming in Northwestern Law Review 2020, On Beauty & Policing. It starts w/ Toni Morrison's quote: “A little black girl ... wanted to rise up out of the pit of her blackness and see the world with blue eyes.” race informs beauty, even in policing.

    Medal of Honor? “ I mean, let’s face it, we didn’t have slavery in this country for over 100 years bc it was a bad thing. Quite the opposite: slavery built the South. I’m not saying we should bring it back;it had its merits.....the streets were safer after dark.” - Rush Limbaugh

    I’m not surprised by the racial bias that has experienced in the UK. When I went 2 London some years ago, multiple white people randomly came up to me to buy drugs every.single.night I was out. They all assumed that I was a drug dealer because I’m Black.

    Unless they're Black. Or poor. In which case they usually know better than to trust the broken criminal justice system for redemption.

    Something has to change. If you live in San Diego, demand your city council change the police dept’s policies and invest in non-police based alternatives because this ain’t it. And if you’re not in SD, your city probably isn’t doing much better:

    Today, in Flushing, we’re joining with sex workers, survivors, and allies to honor the life of Yang Song — a massage parlor worker and sex worker who died in November 2017 while being chased by police. Criminalization will never make our communities safe.

    This racism has deep roots. During 1870s "yellow panic," Cal. legislators called female Chinese emigres innate sexual servants. This led to the first federal antimmigrant law (Page Act), excluding "debauched" women, used to ban Chinese women from West coast

    Bloomberg was deeply invested in NYPD's racist stop and frisk program. He was even worse than Giuliani & expanded the program. He stated that there should be even more stops of young people of color in 2013. When a federal court held it was unconstitutional, he appealed.

    Records obtained by show CBP agents, including agents here in SD County, knowingly falsified records to send asylum seekers back to the countries they were fleeing. The cruelty is the point.

    On this day in 1947, the NAACP sent a petition to the United Nations to condemn the U.S. mistreatment of Black Americans -- the UN took no action on the document. To overcome racial inequality, we must confront our history. Share this
