AMERICA IS TRAGEDY

[daughterofdessalines]

If police started dropping White boys in the street..... on site ... the same White folks that are silent or justify police murder of unarmed Black children..would be outraged and defending the lives of mass murderers.



We have to understand POLICE TERRORISM continues because there is a large population of people that are totally ok with it.... because they know they have privilege and it won’t happen to them. There are White people who know that Apartheid conditions exist in America & justify it. And there are a lot of status quo who stay silent because they know the inner city/marginalized communities are the ones who suffer the bulk of mistreatment at the hands of this police state.

Further proof that police brutality & covid 19 (the two biggest topics of 2020) are attacking the same vulnerable communities. So when the status quo ignore our cries of protest... it is intentional.

I saw this entire family on a TikTok pleading for media attention in the murder of their loved one BLACK PEOPLE SHOULDN’T HAVE TO SET ASIDE THEIR GRIEF & TO ADVOCATE FOR JUSTICE. ITS A DEHUMANIZING REALITY

Matthew Zadok Williams, 35, was shot inside his Decatur-area condominium. It’s clear that someone called the police on him for how he looked when he wasn’t doing anything illegal or threatening anyone. The police account of Matthew lunging at them with a knife doesn’t match up to the bodycam footage which shows police kicking open his door & shooting inside his home. It also appears that Matthew didn’t have a “typical response” to the police descending upon his location. Maybe it was his mental health, maybe he was neurodivergent or maybe he was acting erratic because he was scared. BLACK PEOPLE HAVE A RIGHT TO BE PARANOID OF POLICE. The fact that Black people’s very human reactions are used to justify their unarmed murder.

Meanwhile, in Minnesota a 61 year old White man attacks cops with a hammer, makes it into his car, hits a police car & drags the police officer who approached his vehicle while trying to speed away from the scene. The other cops didn’t even shoot out his tire. You can see the restraint they show in an attempt to deescalate the situation even when they see a fellow officer in imminent danger. Police HAVE the training, they HAVE the patience just not for Black people. The rules of engagement for police are different for Black people. For us it’s shoot first, and we’ll sort out the details later, because in America the racist narrative about Black people & biased justice system usually back up their actions.

As a mother, my heart goes out to his mother. Our anguish is different.

This is important too, it’s not just murders but it’s the terrorizing of all communities. It’s not just the racism but it’s the ableism that is also tolerated in almost no public other safety industry but policing. It’s the traumatic experiences that children endure because police care absolutely nothing about child welfare (and that has been proven time & time again) Even if police shot nobody, the would still need to be defunded for situations like this
