If anyone wants one perspective of how deeply rooted white supremacy is in American policing read Devil in the Grove by Gilbert King which is about a young Thurgood Marshall & the NAACP legal defense fund operating in the South. It is chilling & timely now.
Multiple unarmed non-violent Black men killed by police across the country today.

What's new? Hopefully we change our collective response because they sure ain't gonna change their devilish actions without us pushing back. Crying, marching & tweeting won't cut it. A few of us been screaming 'economic withdrawal' but yall dismiss it as a legitimate action. Why?

“When you hear about slavery for 400 years, that sounds like a choice.” Coming from an Indian American whose country & ancestors were enslaved by Europeans, let me tell you, the only “choice” my people had was forced servitude or death." Quote From fellow Resister "Simar"pic.twitter.com/1IAst5MefL

Can you give their names and which cities when you get the details? I don't mean to sound morbid but I feel names makes us see the as humans not numbers. We need to demand answers in each case as to why lethal force was used. This is becoming epidemic.

no doubt this is a message from the establishment to not be unarmed and be white.

An acquaintance's fb live video said people (black only obvious subtext) just NEED TO COMPLY- bad cops will get their day in court. He honestly believes this. If you rely only on biased editorial news, you truly don't know what is happening to black men & women in this country.

We all knew Russia helped, and we all knew Trump won, it's safe to say Russia helped him win?
