The truth is: the natural world is changing. And we are totally dependent on that world. It provides our food, water and air. It is the most precious thing we have and we need to defend it.

I really miss Nigeria. America just isn’t the same. In Nigeria, everyone would take care of you and pray for you. But nobody in America cares. What a lonely society.

So, what did we learn from this weekend?

We learned that a giant mass protest that shuts down large streets of major cities will be met with cops on their best behavior if the protests are made up of “regular” white people. We are shown that most news organizations reported favorably and used positive rhetoric (for the most part) and nice photos of families protesting together. It was viewed in a very kind light, which is the opposite of what most major (BLM for example) protests get. 

If only there was a way to harness or organize the suburban white lady privilege into other protests. These women act as cop repellent because cops are far less likely to split Sharon from Accounts Payable’s head open or Sandy and her daughter Keighleeanne from Naperville or Susan the wife of a CEO. If more of these ladies showed up I think we could curb some of the violence that people of color face. Operation white shield or some shit like that. This is a way to use your privilege and power to back up what you say you believe in. I am just spitballing here, but man, I have never seen such lax police at such a large protest in my life.

A Seattle police officer who fatally shot a pregnant mother of four told detectives he considered giving up his stun gun for months.

When the battery for Officer Jason Anderson’s Taser finally died about two weeks before his deadly encounter with Charleena Lyles, he stashed the busted tool inside his locker and failed to have the battery replaced, according to transcripts through the Seattle Police Department’s Force Investigation Team on Friday.

Needless to say that if he had this stun gun with him that day, Chaleena could be alive today. Her kids would have to watch their mother die and her unborn baby could eventually see this world. She called the police for help, yet eneded up shot by two police officers, who decided not to take a taser with them because “ it took up too much ‘real estate’ ”.And they will never pay for her senseless death.
