I know because of the war I’ve been fighting I have so much to be thankful for. It’s not even a question that I have been through a lot. It’s not even a question that it’s been hard. With all of that being said I have never felt as strong as I feel now. I know despite all the fuck shit my powers can’t be stopped. I am unstoppable. And I have God and my community to thank for that.. So thank you.. __________________________________ All that being said for #BlackFriday I will be releasing my final installment of my visual series (FTP) Fuck The Police Log.. __________________________________ I believe that we will win.. #defundCPD #WorldWithoutPolice #ChicagoWithoutCPD https://www.instagram.com/p/CIEFnHfA5mv/?igshid=18bsi7d0m32zv

Chicago Emergency Action: Solidarity with Englewood Rebellion

Tuesday, August 11 

Car caravan gathers at 5:00 p.m. / Rally at 6:00 p.m.

Start at 64th/Cottage Grove, End at 1438 W 63rd St

Join us for a car caravan and rally to demand CPAC and the defunding of CPD.

On Sunday, August 9th, Chicago police shot a young Black man in Englewood and then threatened community members with assault rifles and riot gear. Latrell Allen is currently in hospital fighting for his life after being chased and shot five times by CPD. Police are claiming, without evidence, that he shot at them first. The police have charged Latrell with attempted murder after they attempted to murder him. This is yet another instance of police demonizing a victim of police violence to justify their atrocities. What Mayor Lightfoot calls looting is an expression of rage from people who have been terrorized and neglected by the city for years. The people demand that CPD be defunded with that money being invested in communities instead. The people demand that the city enact CPAC so communities can hold police accountable and prevent police violence. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! #CPACNow #DefundCPD

#CloseHomanSquare remains a non-negotiable for holdouts on city counsel as budget talks come to a head tomorrow, less than 2% of people under arrest can get a lawyer in Chicago custody due to incommunicado detention, and court actions against CPD escalate.. #DefundCPD #Fuck12 #TakeBackTheBudget #BootTheBudget #WorldWithoutPolice #ChicagoWithoutPolice https://www.instagram.com/p/CH-1fzoAlG9/?igshid=54lw8o5gvsrc

It’s never easy to manifest your destiny..I can’t say enough how much I appreciate everyone for allowing me to show you some of my world. I have been crying and healing. Creating and unlearning. Letting go and welcoming in my peace of mind. To see everyone gravitate to something that is beautiful and painful to talk about is incredible..all I can say is this.. _______________________________ It’s still #defundCPD #fuck12 #AWorldWithoutPolice #ChicagoWithoutCPD #WeKeepUsSafe _______________________________ I believe that we will win..

Our ability to win every war we don’t deserve to be in shows the persistence of our love for our future. We battle and still build community. We fall and still create the path for our children and the world they need next. We aren’t vanishing like you want. We aren’t the death of your ignorance. We are angels destined to change society in the form of delinquents. We are the answer to unchanged histories you know of. We simply are..#defundCPD #aworldwithoutpolice #chicagowithoutcpd _______________________________ (#iKnowFolksAss) The Interlude _______________________________ @ari_fauna (Stylist) @countingtiaras (lead make up artist ) @maryjade_773 (second lead make up artist) @whoisjournee (asst. photographer) @Tbanksmultis @hoodpiscesheaux @lisadecibel @leevstree @SchenayMosley @naira.bills @solothedweeb @iiosayijoii @journeyswithjenna @defundcpd @blackmadinah https://www.instagram.com/p/CHgX4XCjWq2/?igshid=ju5z1uhz2edu

#WalterWallaceJr is another reason why I hate police. #BreonnaTaylor keeps reminding me that my sister and grandmother are not safe, even in the crib. As tired as I am I will die before I let my voice not be heard when it comes to fighting for freedom. That’s just what it is.. Today we’re occupying space in honor of #walterwallace slide..#defundCPD #worldwithoutpolice https://www.instagram.com/p/CG_ePntglES/?igshid=6ynn8bo3q3io

Humans, this now occurs every weekend in #Chicago, at multiple locations across Fridays to Mondays, sometimes simultaneously. It is simply no longer placed under a national news spotlight. As a result, ununiformed federal agent and police instigation of violence and physical control is increasing. They are trying to beat and exhaust the fervor out of us. What they don't understand is that it is not possible. #CPAC #DefundCPD #DefundPolice #AbolishICE #ChicagoProtests #BLM #LoriLighfoot #FundCommunities (at Downtown Chicago) https://www.instagram.com/p/CECqe5snQ08/?igshid=as51y6ydz0c6
