do videos of Black folks dying on camera help or harm?

3 months now let’s guess why they were finally arrested

10-12 posters think it’s fine to film these incidents for the sake of having evidence. Meanwhile Race and her sidekick thinks it’s counterproductive.

Let it go sis

My thing is if they don’t get convicted where is the victory? Awareness? I think y’all think it’s useful because somebody get charged and the world knows. Nobody debating that. But forgetting the very common outcome is crazy. It wasn’t like an innocent bystander filmed this a killer filmed this.

I really don’t know the purpose of this argument anymore one person is looking at the outcome another just wants something done to feel like they matter.

I think your viewpoint is too far beyond where some people are willing to or capable to go right now, and that's understandable. But its dope that you're willing to elevate to that train of thought, it requires alot.

thank...you??

If a bunch of people who don’t always see eye to eye is telling you the same thing in different ways then maybe you know...

Are you telling us what you would do or what we should do?

thank...you??

Being able to compartmentalize your emotions to view a situation logically and see the totality of it. Requires alot of maturity and open mindedness. You are exactly who you claim to be, salute.

It was also other people who said they don’t watch the videos cute you want to single us out tho. For whatever reason y’all think our reason is anti black and that’s completely stupid but that’s your bag.

Not as simple as that. It’s brings awareness cool. But if we can agree that seeing certain negative things over a long period of time continually can have negative impact I don’t see why some of y’all take it like we trying to bury heads in the sand.

You’re wrong that’s the point.

 

[Race Jones]

plus this wasnt about being right or wrong in reality. i asked a question and many either agreed or disagreed. good discussion either way.

no harm, no foul

 

[Race Jones]

You’re wrong that’s the point.
