        We're too comfortable with the way we're being treated. So comfortable that the few who speak out are considered trouble makers.

        So many videos I’ve seen simply covering up during a barrage of punches cause the police to tell you to stop resisting.

        So true and not just for black folks here but also for Arabs. The American military industrial complex murders millions then brands Arabs terrorists. Things have not gotten better, but much worse on a global scale. “Those in the know, know US democracy is hypocrisy”

        All you have to do is close your eyes and imagine what our country would be like if Malcom, MLK, JFK, and RFK hadn't been taken away from us to understand why the system couldn't let that happen and conspired against them.

        This is why they flooded our streets with drugs, locked away our fathers and killed our leaders! Everything they did was with intention and by design to keeps us down and loving each other!

        They did the exact same thing here in south Africa during apartheid, they used the exact playbook, that old style nationalism is rearing its ugly head again, we need to stop it.

        "In America, democracy is hypocrisy." This speech definitively nailed what goes on: the police attack & then claim they were attacked. I can't count how many times I've revisited this clip. #MalcolmXDay
