The current Rick Chow case, in South Carolina, for the murder of 14 year old Cyrus Carmack-Belton is reminiscent of the 1991 case of Soon Ja Du case, in L.A, for the murder of 15 year old Latasha Harlins. Unfortunately, we have not truly dealt with the issues that make these cases stand out.

Rick Chow is exactly why I say i am Black not that fuck ass POC Killed a Black BOY who wasnt a threat while he was running away but gets found not guilty That bitch was safer behind bars I hope he has a day sooner than later

Let me get this straight... Rick Chow killed a minor over a wrongful accusation of theft and was found innocent? May he and those jurors never rest peacefully again, only nightmares!

RICK CHOW IS A MURDERER

can someone explain this to me from a legal perspective?

My people are boot lickers The Kenya Land and Freedom Army (derogative: Mau Mau) was illegal in Kenya until 2002 And they received neither land nor freedom from the post-independence government after 1963(!!!) That is Kenya for you: from a white settler colony to an anti-Black solidarity nation

The alarms aren’t blaring enough for me. Hello?!

Valerie Anderson's son was killed by an Atlanta police officer over a year and a half ago. She says the city and county are continuing to cover for the officer. She demands justice.

"He picked his way carefully toward the sex question. Why is it a question?

He understood / that people need / acts of attention from one another, does it really matter which acts? Anne Carson

East Africans, the creators of foreheads (Yes, I will tell this joke again. Maybe even later today. I’m grown)

Pixie is still needing help, if you’re able.

"People only THINK they're doing poorly. The economy is fine," they said.

🚨BREAKING: "Proud Boys are everywhere" Proud Boys members on scene in Newark, NJ to support ICE on day 9 of ICE prison hunger strike protests decline to answer our Will Allen-DuPraw on whether there are Proud Boy members who are also ICE agents. MORE ⬇️

"They're coming over here and stealing our jobs" discourse lasted for days on twitter after that Druski skit. That was weeks ago and Bluesky is just now getting this terrible AI summary of it. Layers of annoying.

SEE ALSO: those AI “welfare queen” videos that conveniently sparked racial tension amongst the working class as the government began the task of starving Americans. Not everything is a distraction and several problems can exist at once but also lock in and tighten the fuck up yall.

AI is being used to continue the white man’s mission to sow division in the black community to weaken us and you will never convince me otherwise.

again, idk why yall bring ragebait slop from other platforms on here?

this is very clearly AI 🫩

at the end of the day. the day gon end.

This is why I've always looked at anybody throwing Harambe memes around as At Least lowkey suss.

The gorilla was killed to save the life of a Black toddler who fell into the enclosure. White nationalists in 2016 glorified Harambe as a meme because they saw the Black child as less important than the gorilla, hence the White House post. The article does not mention any of this context.

Hey #BlackSky, @debtcollective.bsky.social is hosting a short-form and op-ed writing workshop. If you've got a debt story to tell, consider joining: debtcollective.org/event/writin...

Talk about the vulnerability and visibility of Black women (online)... I'm reading this excerpt from Jamilah Lemieux's ‘Black. Single. Mother.’ in @theflytrapmedia.com www.theflytrapmedia.com/black-single...

"Ross Otto Hambrick and Victor Marcellus King were two of at least 31 children who were part of the trial. Most, if not all, were children from Black, low-income families. They received three doses of the vaccine, even as hospitalizations continued to rise from the trial, according to the lawsuit."

‼️ Look at the people around you and what they’re saying (or not saying). They would’ve been the 90% back then. And we’re talking skinfolk.

This can be taken as dispiriting or you can think about how much small groups of people have and can accomplish in the world.

Please follow @deflockatlanta.org and have patience as we build out efforts in real time. Happy to connect with anyone interested

Turns out I can’t message people directly so please reply here if interested and I can connect you with our friends over at deflockatlanta.org

Last year, Evanston, Illinois terminated its Flock contract and removed the cameras. Flock *put them back up* and reactivated them. Then Evanston put trash bags around them. Flock says: "legal conditions may prevent a city from voiding the contract without grounds to do so"

Every city commissioner in Dayton, Ohio wants the cameras removed. The police say they have been deactivated. But they literally aren't sure if they're still recording or not. This follows scandal in which police say they were *accidentally* sharing data w/ ICE. So they bag them as stop-gap measure

Leslie at this press conference. IM CACKLING. My favorite character on this show #BeyondTheGates #BTG

one side sounds like community control of the police (derogatory lol)
