COMMUNITY Social Justice Thread: R.I.P. George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor & now Tyre Nichols

[The Lonious Monk]

where was all this money a month ago?
a black man shot on camera......no big deal
black woman shot in her home.....no worries.

but now everyone wants to help the black community?

im not gonna rain on the parade no more....hope everything work out.
yall dont need my bad energy in here.

stay safe out there.

Can we stop asking that question?

lol I'm tired of people asking "Why now?" Who gives a shit why now. The opportunity, support, and resources are here now, so let's just focus on how best to use them to achieve success.

Damn

Dope

That's an average of $26 per person.

It’s expected there will be 1 million protesters marching to the WH tomorrow

Not to be negative.

But as much as I love to see all this protesting and resisting and standing together.

I pray there’s not a big ass coronavirus outbreak in a few weeks as a result of all this. I don’t wanna give the clowns who oppose all of this that satisfaction.

I went to a protest the other day and had two masks on and tried to keep my distance from people as much as I realistically could, and I’ll probably go to one tomorrow if there are any here where I’m at.

I just hope everyone still taking the proper precautions *knock on wood*

A lot more citys need to jump on this in solidarity. Whether it's a street or square, a building. Hopefully it catches on.

Her parents are white supremacists

If only they treated UNARMED protesters with this much respect.

I kinda wish it was a black group of heavily armed protesters at one of these just to call the police on their bullshit but we all know how that would end.

Based on the size of the fish that ice ain’t nearly big enough

you are absolutely right.

Racism is taught anyway.

The only thing inherent at birth is a fear of falling down and loud noises.... everything is learned behavior

That's why I think that other white cop and the black one are gonna fight like hell to get off or get a lesser sentence. That Asian cop is fried rice though. His sister is married to the killer. Or was married depending on how legit their divorce is. The Asian cop is the one clearly seen on video standing by. The other two cops you don't even see speaking and they are sitting in his back and legs like they are being told to. You see how they aren't even trying to do anything with him?

I think Chauvin set the whole thing up because he knew who George was. There's no way that those two cops who haven't been on the job in a week knew how to handle that situation. You can tell that they were acting under direction from Chauvin. They all gonna still do some time though and they deserve it. Fuck em.

Yesterday I said the cop on Floyd's legs has a chance to get off easy, if thats the same cop who was on his 1st day on the job he better go full Tekashi and play dumber than Lil Yachty

 

[Dwayne]

he is also apart of the problem.

black people been forgiving. no one gave us the benefit of the doubt but we stay giving it to them.

Reid

That’ll be dope. A day late and dollar short but better than nothing.

I’d given up on Kap getting back in the NFL after that farce of a workout last year but this whole situation makes me think he’ll actually get signed now.

Even if it’s only for guilt or to shut people up. This whole thing so perfectly speaks to what he was talking about.

The NFL has put out several posts like they’re “down for the cause” still looks like bullshit if Kap & Eric Reid are out of work.

We’ll see though.

Reid was playing just last year bruh

I feel you. It's not like I believe any of these corporations donating money give a fuck about black lives. At the end of the day, that doesn't matter. Whether they sincerely care or not, their money still spends, so the people running this movement just need to focus on doing the right thing with it.

while the money is helpful....this is more of a them problem, tho.

how they think, how they act, how they treat us.
taking their pity money makes them feel they cool now and the overt racism must now go back to covert.
