And clenching your fist for the ones like us who are oppressed by the figures of beauty, you fixed yourself, you said, âWell never mind, we are ugly but we have the music.â

Omaha School Cop Repeatedly Punches Student in the Face
Officer Nick Caniglia of the Omaha Police Department is in hot water after viral video surfaced Thursday showing him punching a student in the face repeatedly.
The video, which was posted to Twitter at approximately 4 PM Thursday afternoon, shows 15 seconds of a fight between students at Millard South High School in Omaha, Nebraska. Without provocation, Caniglia starts punching a student in the face multiple times. According to the student who posted the video, the student getting punched wasnât swinging during the fight.
This is the second time in two months that a school resource officer has been caught on video assaulting a student. In October,School Resource Officer Ben Fields, at Spring Valley High School in South Carolina, was caught flipping a studentâs desk backward and dragging her to the front of the classroom just for not putting her phone away when asked.
SOURCE
These idiots ainât know the difference between a child and an adult (or often donât want to see the difference). This cruelty canât be justified. Iâm sure if there were not so many witnesses, he could shoot the guy. I ask you spread this video. It can help 2 make it impossible for the cop to avoid punishment.
#Cops #Police #PoliceBrutalityÂ

Damn! MAKE IT VIRALÂ
The cops will avoid punishment. It is precisely their jobs to torture, criminalize and incarcerate. The just charged the little girl they beat up and broke her arm with a crime. Abolish police and prisons.
How many children do they have to assault before action will finally be taken?
When security has to tell you, an officer of the law, to stop beating a kid because âthatâs enoughâ.
Cop shootings by race/per million: 1.47 white people vs 31.17 black people. And people really want to believe that the outrage is simply over one murdered black teenager.
For anyone wondering how many people that amounts to, the current US population is at 316 million people. So- rounded to the nearest whole number, cops shot 465 white teens & young adults vs. 9850 black teens & young adults in a 3 year period (2010-2012).
in other words, black teens age 15-19 are 21 times more likely to be shot by police than whites are.
This needs to be a poster plastered everywhere in all of the high schools and middle schools in America.

#WeNeedDiverseBooks YA Flow Chart!
Like thrillers? Contemporary? Romance? Graphic Novels? Humor? Weâve got recommendations for you!
Huge thanks to WNDB member Tracy LĂłpez for designing it!
i just have this persistent feeling of âiâm not doing enoughâ combined with âi donât have the energy to do anythingâ and it just really fucking sucks
No, people arenât âMore sensitiveâ now. People arenât too âPolitically Correctâ now. Nor are people âJust looking for a reason to be offendedâ now.
We, as a people, know better now. Therefore we, as a people, are trying to do better now.
Twin Peaks
This is my new move to deflect shade.
Science fiction is the only genre that not only allows you to disregard everything that weâre taught is realistic and practical, but actually demands that you do. So it allows us to move beyond the bounds of what is realistic and what is real, into the realm of the imagination, That is actually something that organizers do every single day. All organizing is science fiction. When organizers imagine a world without poverty, without war, without borders or prisonsâthatâs science fiction. Theyâre moving beyond the boundaries of what is possible or realistic, into the realm of what we are told is impossible. Being able to collectively dream those new worlds means that we can begin to create those new worlds here.
