It's all over my twitter feed... Another kid shot in Ferguson tonight; after he was handcuffed and left untreated, a live-tweeter (Search4Swag https://twitter.com/...) recorded the kid bleeding out while he screamed for the cops to provide treatment. Officer Dillworth arrested Search4Swag for some unknown reason. Search4Swag had been filming the neglect from behind a fence, at least 100 feet away. Live chants now: "The whole damned system: Guilty as hell."
This is what #BLM is about.
There is a literal meaning to the words that we should all really strive to internalize, even if we can't actually make it all the way there.
Black kids are being killed, cops are getting away with it, people that speak out about it get arrested on trumped up charges, and the rest of America goes about its business as if none of this is happening.
Until people get that it is "the whole damned system" that is "guilty as hell", you won't find me objecting to anything #BLM does.
They are fighting for their kids lives. Today. In 2015.
It. Needs. To. Stop.
Now.
How can there be anything else to talk about?
