Carolyn Bryant is still alive
6th-grader Xavier Davis was threatened with suspension all because of his haircut
If you saw a picture of sixth-grader Xavier Davis’ hair, you probably wouldn’t understand what all the fuss is about.
At first glance, it looks like many other young boy’s haircuts, but with two razor cuts in the side. It’s a popular style worn by celebrities, including soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo.
But when Xavier arrived at Cedar Bayou Junior High School in Baytown, Texas, on April 20, he was told: Fix your hair or face suspension.
“I was walking into class, and then she saw my hair and said, ‘You can’t have two lines in your hair. Go to the office,’” Xavier told Houston-area TV station KPRC.
It wasn’t that Xavier had razor cuts in his hair. It was that he had two. Those two tiny lines are what led to threats of suspension. Read more (4/27/17 10 AM)

Doxxing is illegal -_-
so is child trafficking so i guess no ones perfect
“The dataset was compiled by New York-based activist Sam Lavigne, who trawled the professional profile website LinkedIn to identify some 1,600 people working for ICE. The database included public information like job titles or profile pictures of the officers.” all public infos so not illegal lmfao
As stated, doxxing is not illegal. Hacking is illegal. Making threats of violence is illegal. Those are separate things unrelated to the act of sharing information itself. When the person you’re doxxing is an agent of a white nationalist regime which is in violation of human rights and international law, it’s not only legal, but also moral.
Here’s a short list (with sources) of things ICE has recently done which are both illegal and immoral:
Kidnapping
Homicide
Torture
Child Abuse
Sexual Assault
Child Neglect
Child Endangerment
Illegal Searches
More Illegal Searches
Lying About Warrants
Harassment of US Citizens
Wrongful Arrest
Police Impersonation
When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty. Law does not always equal justice.
If those who create and enforce the law act in an immoral and abusive fashion, there is no moral obligation to follow the laws which they create to protect themselves and cow their victims into obedience.
The argument that one should prioritize law over justice and morality and refrain from standing up against oppression because the oppressor made it illegal is a fallacy, and it makes you complicit. The Holocaust was legal, standing up to the SS was not. If you have to cite law in a conversation about ethics, you’ve already lost.

Sure do
Okay so because of this
I HAVE to post this
Please SPREAD IMMEDIATELY
Can anyone explain what’s going on here??????????????????????????????
In New York police detain you for skipping school. When I was going to a majority Black/POC school in the upper west side there were police vans parked outside waiting to detain us even if we had a note if we couldn’t provide ID. I’ve come to find out they don’t stake out schools in Black neighborhoods.

also an addendum to the hunger games slide, when they put out a casting call for the role of Katniss, they specifically asked for only caucasian actors to audition, which left out any possibility for any amazing PoC actors to have been discovered.
i hope this was informational and i didnt leave anything major out. if anything is wrong or needs to be updated, message me and i’l fix any fallacies!
2019 america still needs this
When karma turns out to be a bigger bitch than you.
Being a minority does not give you a right to be an anti-black piece of shit.
I heard on Twitter that her snitching got that poor woman fired. 😒😒😡
You already know she got fired when they responded to her teeet. Companies work employees extremely hard not giving them proper breaks or time to eat or rest and it’s against the law but the police don’t go after companies they go after people.
So this dumb snitch not having the brainpower to think about that, because she doesn’t value black lives, and then having the nerve to talk about the struggle as a minority is just seven layers of irony.
Today I learned about a couple that decided to rebuild their deserted piece of land of 600 hectares in Aimorés, Brazil. They planted more than 2 million tree saplings. As a result, the site has 293 plant species, 172 bird species and 33 animal species, some of which were on the verge of extinction. It only took 18 years!
In the early 1990s, Brazilian photo-journalist Sebastião Ribeiro Salgado was stationed in Rwanda to cover the horrific accounts of Rwanda genocide. The on-ground experience left him traumatised. In 1994, he was returning to his home in Minas Gerais, Brazil, with a heavy heart, hoping to find solace in the lap of a lush green forest, where he had grown up.
But, instead, he found dusty, barren land for miles and miles, in place of the forest. In only a few years, his beautiful hometown underwent rampant deforestation, leaving it fallow and devoid of all the wildlife. For him, everything was destroyed. “The land was as sick as I was. Only about 0.5% of the land was covered in trees,’ he shared in an interview with The Guardian. Salgado was shattered.
Saldago’s Wife Wanted to Recreate The Forest
It was at this time that Salgado’s wife Lélia made a near-impossible proposal. She expressed her wish to replant the entire forest. Salgado supported her idea, and together the couple set out on a heroic mission. Brazil Photographer Forest
Salgado bought an abandoned cattle ranch from his parents and started building a network of enthusiastic volunteers and partners who would fund and sustain their mammoth project. In 1998, the couple founded Instituto Terra – the organisation which tirelessly worked to bring a forest back to life.

Salgado sowed the first seed in December 1999. The couple hired around 24 workers in the beginning and was later joined by numerous volunteers over the years. They worked day and night – from uprooting the invasive weeds to planting new seedlings. Soon, their hard work bore fruit as tropical trees native to the region started flourishing in the area. They received a donation of over one lakh saplings which gave rise to a dense forest. The handcrafted forest comprises mostly of local arboreal and shrub varieties. Latest satellite imagery revealed how a soothing green forest cover has enveloped the area which once was a devastating arid eyesore.Since 1998, they have planted more than 2 million saplings of 293 species of trees and rejuvenated 1,502 acres of tropical forest. The biodiversity-rich zone has recently been declared as a Private Natural Heritage Reserve (PNHR).
The Impact of Salgado’s Forest
The afforestation project, which is undoubtedly one of the greatest environmental initiatives in the world, has also helped to control soil erosion and revived the natural springs in the area. Eight water springs which once dried up, flow at around 20 litres per minute at present, relieving the drought-prone region of its woes. Salgado’s forest also happens to solve the much-debated notion about climate change, proving that the trend can be reversed if tried. His forest has resulted in causing more rainfall to the area and cooler weather, bringing a drastic and desirable change in the climate.
Instituto Terra’s Fauna | by Leonardo Merçon – 2012
The most important positive aspect of the forest till now has to be the return of the lost fauna. More than 172 species of birds, 33 species of mammals, 15 species of amphibians and reptiles have been spotted in the forest interiors, something which was beyond imagination two decades ago. Many of the plant and animal species in his forest actually feature on the endangered list.
Efforts For Good
Climate change is a harsh reality. Mankind is bearing the brunt of the relentless destruction they inflicted on the planet. Yet, people like Salgado and Lélia fill us with hope, proving that patience and persistence can be our keys to heal the wounds of nature. If two people can create a 1502-acre forest in just 20 years, then imagine how much can be done if everyone comes together to protect the environment. It must be reminded that for every tree we plant, we are adding 118 kgs of oxygen to the air every year, and reducing the carbon footprint by 22 kgs.
Efforts For Good urges all the readers to actively engage in planting trees and gradually turn this into a fixed habit.

One of the greatest cinematic voices of his generation, John Singleton, has passed away today after being taken off of life support following a stroke. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends. Rest in power, King. Thank you for the contributions you made to the culture and the community.
No way 😲😥😪
An officer-involved shooting is being investigated by the...
There is something rotten happening in Georgia right now, and almost no one is talking about it. Early Sunday morning, an Atlanta activist/organizer, Oscar Cain, was gunned down by Atlanta PD. They claim he had a weapon, which is suspicious on its on, but how in the world do you kill an activist against police brutality as he’s running away? On top of that, no one knows about it until almost a week later?! My heart is breaking right now for his friends in the Atlanta Black Lives Matter movement who are reeling at this loss. This is the 26th officer-involved shooting investigation of 2019, marking Georgia as one of the deadliest places for civilians being killed by police. Please help support memorial efforts by donating via CashApp @ $StandForOscar. We demand justice for Oscar Cain!
Damn, it’s like every year new there’s a new # this is just sad. Babylon only knows brutality, treats black people with no humanity! I wish there was a place for black people to just be free from this type of treatment! #OscarCain #BlackLivesMatter
I hate the uptick in the use of the word “matters” since the start of the Black Lives Matter movement.
I saw a Mazda ad that said “driving matters.”
Just saw another ad that says “people matter.”
Fuck you.
It’s not a trendy buzzword you can just use for marketing.
It’s literally Black people asking you to stop killing us, and you turned it in to clicks and profit.
damn i made this same post a few years back, so im not nuts
And thats a serious problem.
i made a post talking about how marketing strategy has changed to make everyone feel like they are “rebellious” and “standing up against-blank) and used several examples of just the few commercials i had heard while typing it. one was the driving matters, others were”Dinner matters”, “sleeping matters”, “vitamins matter”,
companies that, before BLM was created, would try to appeal to peoples ego’s by using whole catch lines, were now just using -blank- matters. and yes, it’s a tactic.
That driving matters slogan don’t even make any sense. They can’t even use logic while stealing our shit.
They tried to BLM into a joke and they want us to know they lack compassion for black people by using those dumbass slogans. These marketing companies literally wait for black people to make something popular and then use it in their ads.
Black struggles somehow become a trivial thing in mainstream society!
