Black and Brown bodies and terrorism

The Black Panthers were labeled a terrorist group. Think about it. Any time people of color have challenged white supremacy, they've been labeled terrorists. It doesn't matter if they've been oppressed, robbed and murdered for decades, sometimes centuries. They're still the terrorists. For example, today people consider the Black lives matter activists, a terrorist group, not a group like the Klan, a group that actually terrorizes people. One group challenges white supremacy, the other upholds it. How many times has an Islamic nation invaded France? How many times has an African nation invaded France? However, France has terrorized parts of Africa and the middle east for the last century. It has robbed Haiti and Africa blind. France doesn't have a racist past, it also has a racist present and more than likely future. We can light a candle for victims, no need to spread the flag of oppressors. The US makes most of the world's guns. If 'bad' men have guns, they probably got them from us. We have the tendency to help out the bad guys if it serves our economic interests. Mainly, the economic interests of a select few. It's been years and we still have not found those weapons of mass destruction. Now it seems we get a 'new enemy' each year. The world doesn't hate the west simply because of its wealth. It hates them because that wealth has come at the expense of their economy, and their bodies and country. The world is full of terrorism and terrorists, just not the ones we're pointing the fingers at. ‪#‎ifeltlikeranting‬ ‪#‎noneedtospyonmeimharmless‬ ‪#‎staywoke‬ ‪#‎wecanwatchDWTSandstillread‬
