Not sky news reporting the Chris Kaba protests as people gathering to mourn the queen. Cover up or what?
UK news atm: The Queen has died
Yes, we are all aware of this. The amount of TV coverage this is getting is really starting to get annoying.
UK news we deserve to know about:
Chris Kaba, a black man, was murdered by the Met on Monday.
What the hell the UK government is doing about the current economic crisis.
What is going on in the rest of the world. I really hope the floods in Pakistan are starting to recede.
Why can we not sign UK Gov petitions. The world doesn't stop because one person died.
fuck this handmaids tale country.
Stop racism ! Enough racism, we are all the same
Animal of the Day!
Bengal Slow Loris (Nycticebus bengalensis)
Conservation Status- Endangered
Habitat- Asia
Size (Weight/Length)- 4 kg; 35 cm
Diet- Fruits; Nectar; Insects; Bird eggs; Bark
Cool Facts- Slow loris are the only primates that are venomous and only the second mammal. When combined with their saliva, a gland on their armpit produces a thick, toxic oil that is then rubbed into their fur. The bengal slow loris lives the entirety of their lives in the tree branches. Their rainforest home is full of fruits and flowers that they gorge themselves on. The bengal slow loris usually raises one to two babies a year where they cling to their mother’s back until they are strong enough to climb. Due to the mass deforestation occuring in their home and the illegal pet trade, these slow loris are extremely endangered. Luckily, due to cooperation with native peoples, conservationists are encouraging sustainable farming that allows the Bengal slow loris to live alongisde humans.
Rating- 13/10 (How can you not like that face?)
I don't understand the "slavery was so long ago" argument because....
The people that founded the United States.
The people you quote when you want to keep your guns.
The people who wrote the constitution the very law of the land. The very reason why uterus havers, disabled, and queer communities are losing their rights today.
Those people thought it was okay to own human beings. So, as you see. You SAY slavery was so long ago. Except people that this country references to determine the law of the land, thought it was okay to own human beings.
The very people whose word you look to when trying to determine any law in this country from abortion to gay marriage to gun ownership thought it was okay to own human beings.
Like. Imagine if you they came back today and looked around at all these free black people just buying guns and owning homes, and white people working in fields in shit. They'd be HORRIFIED. Free Black people wandering around, taking back to white people, carrying assault rifles? Preposterous!
Yeah. That's the person whose words you're quoting when you say "but the constitution says"

‘Lynchings in Mississippi never stopped’
https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2021/08/08/modern-day-mississippi-lynchings/
By DeNeen L. Brown
AUGUST 8, 2021
JACKSON, Miss. — Since 2000, there have been at least eight suspected lynchings of Black men and teenagers in Mississippi, according to court records and police reports.
“The last recorded lynching in the United States was in 1981,” said Jill Collen Jefferson, a lawyer and founder of Julian, a civil rights organization named after the late civil rights leader Julian Bond. “But the thing is, lynchings never stopped in the United States. Lynchings in Mississippi never stopped. The evil bastards just stopped taking photographs and passing them around like baseball cards.”
[Mississippi’s history of lynchings haunts grieving mother]
Jefferson was born in Jones County, Miss., which was an epicenter of the Ku Klux Klan’s reign of terror during the civil rights movement. “Coming from Mississippi and seeing stuff intersect, talking about this stuff is like talking about what happened down the road,” said Jefferson, a Harvard Law School graduate who trained as a civil justice investigator with Bond.
In 2017, Jefferson began compiling records of Black people found hanging or mutilated across the country. In 2019, Jefferson began focusing her investigation on Mississippi. In each case she investigated, law enforcement officials ruled the deaths suicides, but the families said the victims had been lynched.
Historically, lynchings were often defined as fatal hangings by mobs, often acting with impunity and in an extrajudicial capacity to create racial terror. Crowds of White people often gathered in town squares or on courthouse lawns to watch Black people be lynched.
From 1877 to 1950, more than 4,000 Black men, women and children were lynched in cities and towns across the country, according to the Equal Justice Initiative (EJI), a human rights organization based in Montgomery, Ala., which opened the National Memorial for Peace and Justice in 2018 to honor thousands of lynching victims. During that period, Mississippi recorded 581, the highest number of lynchings recorded by state.
Historians say lynchings often evoke the image of public hangings, however EJI and the NAACP expanded that definition to include any extrajudicial racial terror killing and mutilation committed to uphold racial segregation and a false premise of racial hierarchy.
The NAACP defines lynchings as “the public killing of an individual who has not received” due process under the law.
During her investigation focusing intensely on Mississippi, Jefferson began seeing patterns in the deaths and connecting the dots in recent cases of Black people found hanging.
“There is a pattern to how these cases are investigated,” Jefferson said. “When authorities arrive on the scene of a hanging, it’s treated as a suicide almost immediately. The crime scene is not preserved. The investigation is shoddy. And then there is a formal ruling of suicide, despite evidence to the contrary. And the case is never heard from again unless someone brings it up.”
Each day, Jefferson works on that list of eight suspected hangings — including the 2018 hanging Willie Andrew Jones Jr. — trying to bring justice to grieving families. The following are seven of those victims, plus Craig Anderson, who was fatally beaten in a racial terrorist attack that a federal judge called a lynching.
Raynard Johnson, 17
JUNE 16, 2000
Raynard Johnson was found hanging from a pecan tree in his front yard in Kokomo, Miss. The Mississippi Bureau of Investigation called the hanging a suicide, according to records. But his family believes Johnson was lynched, Jefferson said.
In 2000, the Rev. Jesse Jackson traveled to Mississippi to call attention to Johnson’s hanging.
“There’s enough circumstantial stuff here that warrants a serious investigation. We will not rest until those who committed this murder are brought to justice,” Jackson told demonstrators before leading a march to the pecan tree where Raynard was found. “We reject the suicide theory.”
In February 2001, the Justice Department announced it ended its investigation into Johnson’s death: “The evidence does not support a federal criminal civil rights prosecution.”
Raynard’s mother, Maria Johnson, says she is still waiting for some kind of justice. “My son’s death marked the modern age of a fight that Black people have been in in Mississippi and this nation for centuries,” Johnson said. “They tried to cover this up, but I’ve never given up hope. And that’s the thing that should scare them, because I never will.”
Nick Naylor, 23
JAN. 9, 2003
Three years later, Nick Naylor, 23, was found hanging from a tree about 11 miles from his house in Porterville, Miss. A dog chain was wrapped around his neck. Police ruled the death a suicide, but an attorney for the family said it was a lynching.
“Every time someone loses their life in a hate crime, it opens up the wound,” said Lequicha Naylor, 43, Naylor’s sister. “We have no closure. His killers are probably still around here, walking around. I have little Black boys. I’ve got grand boys — kids walking around the same place where my brother got hung. And we had tell them what happened for their own protection. One thing we always wonder is what they did to him before he died.”
Roy Veal, 55
APRIL 22, 2004
A year later, Roy Veal, was found hanging from a pecan tree near Woodville, Miss. Relatives said Veal was found with a hood over his head. A state police spokesman told reporters Veal’s death was “consistent with suicide.” Relatives said they believed Veal, who had returned to Mississippi to fight for his family’s land, was lynched. A spokesman for the sheriff’s office in Woodville said the case is with the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation.
The Rev. Jesse Jackson holds the branch of a pecan tree on July 8, 2000, the site where Raynard Johnson was found hanging from a belt in Kokomo, Miss., on June 16, 2000.
The Rev. Jesse Jackson is joined by ministers from across Mississippi for the funeral of Raynard Johnson in Sandy Hook, Miss., on June 27, 2000.
Frederick Jermaine Carter, 26
DEC. 3, 2010
Frederick Jermaine Carter was found hanging from a tree limb in a White neighborhood in Greenwood, Miss. The state medical examiner ruled Carter’s death a suicide. Relatives called it a lynching and demanded for a federal investigation.
Derrick Johnson, then-state president of the Mississippi NAACP, told reporters that the community had “lost all confidence in the ability of local law enforcement to investigate” the case of Carter’s hanging. He called on the Justice Department to investigate.
A spokesperson for the department declined to comment on the case.
The day before Carter was found dead, he had been working with his stepfather on a painting project. Relatives said he disappeared after his stepfather went to buy more paint.
“Not knowing what happened is a torment,” Brenda Carter-Evans told reporters in 2010. “I need to know what happened to my son.”
Craig Anderson, 49
JUNE 26, 2011
One of the most graphic examples of a modern-day racial terror killing occurred on June 26, 2011, when 10 white teenagers killed 49-year-old James Craig Anderson in Jackson, Miss.
The teenagers, who according to court records, decided to “go f---k with some n-----s,” ran over Anderson in a parking lot while yelling “white power.”
That night two carloads of White teenagers drove into a motel parking lot where they spotted Anderson, according to records. Some teens jumped out of the cars and started beating Anderson, in an attack captured on a surveillance video.
In March 2012, three of the teenagers — identified as Deryl Dedmon, John Rice and Dylan Butler — pleaded guilty in federal district court to charges of conspiracy and committing a hate crime.
During a sentencing hearing, U.S. District Judge Carlton Reeves connected the killing of Anderson to the state’s gruesome history of lynchings, telling the courtroom that “a toxic mix of alcohol, foolishness and unadulterated hatred caused these young people to resurrect the nightmarish specter of lynchings and lynch mobs from the Mississippi we long forget.”
Reeves said the group of White teenagers targeted Black neighborhoods in Jackson, “for the sole purpose of harassing, terrorizing, physically assaulting and causing bodily injury to Black folk.”
The “marauders,” the judge said, prowled the community. “They recruited and encouraged others to join in the coordinated chaos; and they boasted about their shameful activity,” Reeves said. “This was a 2011 version of the n----- hunts.”
“Mississippi has expressed its savagery in a number of ways throughout its history, slavery being the cruelest example,” Reeves said, “but a close second being Mississippi’s infatuation with lynchings.”
Otis Byrd, 54
MARCH 19, 2015
Otis Byrd, who had been missing since March 2, 2015, was found hanging from a tree on March 19, 2015, in Port Gibson, Miss.
The Claiborne County sheriff’s office said Byrd was found with a bedsheet wrapped around his neck. Byrd had been convicted in 1980 of murder in the death of a White woman, according to the Mississippi Department of Corrections. He had been paroled in 2006.
The FBI and the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division launched an investigation. In 2015, the Justice Department released a statement regarding Byrd’s death saying that investigators had found no foul play.
“After a careful and thorough review, a team of experienced federal prosecutors and FBI agents determined that there was no evidence to prove that Byrd’s death was a homicide,” the Justice Department said.
Phillip Carroll, 22
MAY 28, 2017
Phillip Carroll was found hanging from a tree in Jackson, Miss. Police called the death a suicide. Early reports said Carroll had been found with his hands tied behind his back. Police denied that account.
“If there’s any other information or evidence that anyone may have to make us believe that it may not be a suicide, again, we’re open to any information and any evidence to aid us in the investigation,” Jackson Police Commander Tyree Jones told reporters. “But as of right now, we don’t have anything other than the fact that his death has been ruled a suicide.”
Deondrey Montreal Hopkins, 35
MAY 5, 2019
Deondrey Montreal Hopkins, who lived in Columbus, Miss., was found hanging from a tree on a bank of the Luxapallila Creek. Columbus Police Chief Fred Shelton said Hopkins’s death was not a homicide.
The Justice Department declined to comment on the case.

Justice for Latjor Tuel
Latjor Tuel was executed by Calgary PD on Saturday February 19th 2022 in broad daylight on 17th Ave. Another black man killed at the hands of police.
Latjor was a father, uncle, brother, son and member of our community. Latjor came to Canada almost 20 years ago looking for a better life and opportunity. He was a hard working man and an amazing man with a big heart; who would work hard to provide for both his family in Canada and South Sudan A man dedicated to his community known to many as some who inspired joy to those around him.
Latjor was an amazing man with a big heart. He was someone who loved to make people smile. He could put a smile on your face even if you were having your worst day. Latjor was also a former child soldier. Like many who fled the Civil war Latjor battled with his past, suffering from PTSD caused by his time as a former child soldier. He suffered from ongoing mental health crisis, He was going through a mental health crisis at the time of his murder. A clear cry for help. The Calgary PD is already trying to spin the story to fit their narrative, but they outnumbered him and chose deadly violent force instead of deescalating the situation. They say he had a weapon when he was only carrying a stick that was clearly shown in multiple videos of my fathers execution. They say he attacked a police dog, but they left out that they sicked this killer dog on him while he was clearly suffering through a mental health crisis, with multiple trained police around . A family member tried talking to them and telling them that he could deescalate the situation with Latjor as he was his cousin. Calgary PD refused to let him speak to Latjor and chose to release the K9 on him while he was already on the ground, clearly going through a crisis. When he tried to defend himself against this K9 and run, Calgary PD started shooting and even after my father was lying motionless on the ground, they still had their guns drawn. They can lie all they want, but there is VIDEO FOOTAGE. VIDEO FOOTAGE THAT THE POLICE ARE ALREADY TAKING DOWN. !!!!!! An officer picked up the stick from Latjors hand and placed it on the bus stop's glass. They kept using the word weapon, not specifying it as a tactic to paint a great man with a heart of gold as Someone who deserved to be executed the way he was by Calgary PD. The fact that such a great man had to die on the street at a bus stop is beyond disgusting; it is dehumanizing. Calgary PD could have done anything other than kill him in cold blood. Tazers, battons, pepper spray and months of training!!! Anything other than killing an innocent black man suffering from a PTSD episode. What we find most challenging about this situation is that there's more news coverage about the dog being in stable condition but no coverage about how the community is in shambles over losing one of their own.
We came to Canada to find stability and safety for our family and rebuild our communities. But instead, we were met with prejudice and racism. We live in a society where a black man's life is worth less than a dog.
CALGARY POLICE, WE NEED ANSWERS!!!!
WHY DID THE AMBULANCE ONLY TAKE THE DOGG TO THE HOSPITAL!!!!!!
WHY DID YOU LEAVE MY FATHERS LIFELESS BODY LYING ON THE CONCRETE FOR HOURS ? EYEWITNESSES SAY FROM 3:50-11 PM!!!!!!!
IS A BLACK MAN'S LIFE WORTH LESS THAN DOGG. A DOG THAT'S IN STABLE CONDITION WHILE MY FATHER LAYS DEAD RIDDLED WITH BULLET HOLES.
CALGARY PD IS REFUSING TO TALK, BUT THEY WON'T BE ABLE TO LIE THEIR WAY OUT OF THIS. THERE ARE VIDEOS AND PHOTOS!!!!
CALGARY PD WILL NOT GET AWAY WITH THIS.
BLACK LIVES MATTER TODAY, TOMORROW AND YESTERDAY.
MY FATHERS MEMORY WILL NOT GO DOWN IN VAIN.
The money from this go fund me will go toward transporting Latjors body back to South Sudan at the request of his mother. It will also go toward funeral expenses and legal expenses and the rest to the family that Latjor worked so hard to provide for so that they can be allowed to greave in peace
Latjor Tuel was executed by Calgary PD on Saturday February 19th 2022 in broad daylight on… Nyalinglat Latjor needs your support for Justi

Important to see this please don't ignore this post.
Well over a week ago, an orphanage's water purifier broke down, and they have been forced to drink water that is unsafe. Think about that. What if it happened to you? What would you want people to do?
So far, Yazid who is in charge of this orphanage, which has over 50 children, has only gotten 30 dollars. This amount of money, unfortunately, is not enough for these people to fix their water purifier. So may I ask any of you who see this post to please spread the word about this to anyone or anywhere where Yazid and the orphanage could get help.
Please ACT NOW before they suffer a worse fate that could very well come to them, if action is not taken on the behalf of these people now. I'm asking to PLEASE help in anyway you can. To fix the water purifier he needs 500 dollars. So just to make it clear, if you can't donate, then you are not being unhelpful. You can still help by spreading the word, but if you can donate, then please can you do so? Please for the sake of over 50 people, please help!
Here is information that you need to donate to Yazid if you are able to do so.

Over 50 people are forced to count on outside help, will you be a helper? Hopefully you do, thanks to every single person who decides to help in anyway.
Blessing to every helper of the orphanage!
It's absolutely vile how there's next to no coverage of this in the media. It really shows that when you all say "human rights," you actually only mean "adult rights," because children are less than human to you. Human rights includes children, and yet you all are ignoring that right now, even when it's children of color who are the children more likely to die. Performative activism at its finest- a horrifyingly large amount of you all only care about it if it will get you a lot of likes and popularity points.
Edit: To all of you bitching about how this post seems guilt trippy- good! You should feel fucking guilty, and that's exactly what the point of the supposed 'guilt tripping' is! You shouldn't feel guilty if you didn't know about it, but you should feel guilty if it has come into your social media circle and you didn't bother to pay attention to it. Because somebody might have talked about it in your circle, but you didn't bother to fucking read it!
