1/ A friend told me tonight we need a Truth and Reconciliation Commission. No we don’t. There has been enough talk. We do not need a forum or another commission. We need a total and complete mea culpa and a serious plan of reparations with a big enough number put on the table.
2/ Nor do we need any more politicians wringing their hands and saying we really do need to address systemic racism, without having the courage to offer an real solutions. We don’t need you to condemn police brutality; we need you to stop it.
3/ Police brutality is the tip of the iceberg. Our criminal justice system is brutal. Educational system withholding resources from the poor is brutal. Environmental policies in black neighborhoods is brutal. Brutality towards blacks is laced into the system now and it must stop.
Amen a thousand times!! Enough already.
And the time is now.
Exactly
Another politician who throws money at a problem and expects it to go away.
Conservatives have a knee-jerk reflex against anyone who tries to actually solve any big problem rather than ignore, manipulate, or profit from it. It's beyond cynical. It's spiteful. Utopian thinking is almost never some evil conspiracy, and we're not even reaching that far.
Very true
If there happen to be no actual domestic terrorists, maybe the people who are looking for them through every camera and microphone in the country could re-apply their free time. Restore trust, solve the basic, criminal, civil injustice which has become so normalized.
With all due respect, we need to condemn all violent acts regardless of who commits them. What about all the violent street terrorists calling themselves protestors? Looting, crunching, kicking shooting, stabbing, and setting fires. Do you condemn those actions or just cops?
