LeakYou.com began its series on Exposing Racism In East Texas today. Unfortunately lynchings still happen and No Justice has been obtained yet. We remember Brandon McClelland who was dragged to his death in 2008 and all those sho have died by the hand of injustice whether black, mexican, indian, white, all colors of men, women, and children. #Repost @yvvrii with @repostapp ・・・ 🚫WARNING 🚫 graphic content. I apologize to anyone if they are disturbed by these images. Unfortunately, this is the truth. 3,959 (DOCUMENTED) black people were killed just by lynching alone. This number only reflects the lynchings that were reported, we can highly assume that the numbers are far greater than we know. The “last” lynching was stated to be in 1968. But this is untrue as modern day lynching is still prevalent only this time its just called ‘murder’. Please look up #brandonmclelland 2008, #jamescraiganderson 2011, #jamesbyrd 1998 etc. The terrorists that Trump talks about are here and have been here for hundreds and hundreds of years. His decisions, his racist and supremacist way of thinking only gives the real TERRORIST power and fuels their ideals and hatred. It is a sad time for the US and I fear for what’s to come next. But what we can do is spread the knowledge of the past and of the current and bring it forward to the future. We must never forget. Spread the truth and spread love. #blackhistorymonth is everyday.

The Judicial system and the #police and #policebrutality around this country and around this state specifically disgust me #blackamerica I am disgusted. I'm always the very last one to watch a video of a #blackman or a #blackboy being killed or a #blackwoman being beaten because I don't want to be filled with the emotions of outrage and wrath. I practice being disciplined with my emotions daily. But yesterday when I learned that the cop (pig) in #Dover#Delaware who kicked #lateefdickerson in the face, leaving him concussed and breaking his jaw when he was obeying his command and bowing to the slave catcher on his hands and knees (watch the video) I felt compelled- really I felt disgusted and then I felt compelled (to do "something" but to do what? To invite someone to a duel, to kick some pigs in the face. To call some pigs what they are to their face. To draw a pretty little stupid picture... Idk Wtf to do! What disgusts me the most is that this pig resigned yesterday and on the low (hidden from #us... "Citizens" I guess that's what y'all are. I ain't even gonna say citizen referring to myself because I'm a #felon I ain't got no rights here anyway. I gotta #divine right though. But anyway this pig resigned yesterday with an undisclosed amount of money #realmoney I'm talking m's... Sources tell me Dover paid this pig all the money he would've earned for the duration of his career til #retirement and he probably got that too. I believe it, they don't want #us 2 #knowthetruth they don't want us to #knowthyself #knowyourenemey they don't want us to KNOW ANYTHING! But this is something you should know #blackamerica #blackfacts on this date in #blackhistory white supremacist John King, (not a #king like U & I) one of three white men who chained #JamesByrd to a pickup and dragged him along a Texas road until he was decapitated, was sentenced to death by lethal injection. If his #deathpenalty is carried out, he will be the first white Texan executed for killing a black man since slavery ended. Ask me how long he's been on Death Row. This is my first picture story btw. I did it in honor of and as a bow to the legendary #EmoryDouglas the #BlackPanther Minister of #Art

The last recorded lynching was 1968 that's 45 years ago but let's not forget James Byrd in 1998. Remember, laws had to be implemented for people not to kill us. This is not a post racial society. This is a society that horribly attempts to conceal and protect a racist foundation. #wakeup #throwbackthat #tbt #neverforget #lynching #americanhistory #amerikkka #jamesbyrd
