It's not just him which is what's scary to me. Who was on duty with him at the time? Who is his commanding officer? Who is the district attorney that choose not to pursue charges against him? Which judges looked the other way?

Please don't interpret this as me letting Brian off of the hook. When we say that racism is systemic then not everything can be pinned on an individual. There are levels of beaucrats that make this happen and all of them need to be held accountable.

Watch: Poet Porsha Olayiwola heartbreakingly reminds us all that black women’s lives matter too.

“Men and boys are seen as the primary target of racial injustice,” AAPF associate director Rachel Gilmer told TakePart in May. “This has led to the idea that women and girls of color are not doing as bad, or that we’re not at risk at all.”

But studies show otherwise: Black women are killed and sexually assaulted by the police, and incarcerated at almost three times the rate of their white female counterparts. Yet news coverage of these cases are focused largely on the relationship between law enforcement and black men.

From the linked article above. None of this diminishes the importance of any Black Lives Matter protests or the lives of black men.

An intersectional analysis is necessary for every EVERY form of resistance and liberation. Black women are especially marginalized and earsed from both the feminist communities (where white women dominate the space) and discussion surrounding anti-Black racism (where Black men dominate the space). To truly inspire the greatest change that helps the most amount of people is to put Black women at the center of every movement and policy. (Educated/inspired by bell hooks feminist theory)
