You know Malcolm X had the foresight in urging us to internationalize our problem. We can’t keep taking our case to the criminal and expect the criminal to indict itself.
This white woman who is attorney general of Mississippi said a white cop was justified in firing into a retreating vehicle that killed a 1 year old innocent black baby boy.
BREAKING: The Mississippi Attorney General’s office cleared the officer who shot and killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley at a Walmart in Senatobia in June, according to a news release Monday. ow.ly/JNS750ZZ3Ja

Chicago detectives drove him to a patch of waste ground, put a sh0tgun in his mouth and pulled the trigger. Three times.
Darrell Cannon had been told in the car that they had "a scientific way of interrogating" people.
Then they took his trousers down and used a cattle prod on him.
2nd November 1983. Officers came into his family's flat and arrested him for murder.
What he says happened next, he has said publicly, in sworn statements, in court, and in print under his own name for Amnesty International.
They drove him away from the station to a secluded spot. They forced a shotgun into his mouth and pulled the trigger, letting him believe each time that it was loaded. Then they pulled his trousers down and shocked him on the genitals with an electric cattle prod.
He confessed.
He has written one sentence about why that answers every question anybody has ever asked about false confessions: he confessed because he wanted it to stop.
He served twenty-four years. His conviction was eventually thrown out and the charges dropped in 2007.
He was one of more than a hundred Black men tortured by detectives under Commander Jon Burge in Chicago between about 1972 and 1991. Electric shock. Suffocation. Guns in mouths. Radiator burns.
Burge was fired in 1993 and never tried for torture, because the statute of limitations had expired. He was convicted in 2010 of lying about it, served four and a half years, and kept his police pension until he died.
As Cannon has put it: not one officer has been convicted for the torture itself.
In 2015 Chicago became the first city in America to pass reparations for police torture — a fund, counselling, free college for survivors and their families, and a legal requirement that this be taught in Chicago public schools.
They had to legislate it into the curriculum. Otherwise it would have gone.
Darrell Cannon is in his seventies. He speaks in schools now. He tells children what happened to him in a police station in their city, because a law says somebody has to.
Darrell Cannon’s story exposes a chapter of American justice that cannot be understood through prison sentences alone.

In 1997, five old men were flown to the White House so that a President of the United States could apologise to them in person.
They were the last survivors of the Tuskegee syphilis study.
The oldest man to speak was ninety-four. He had been lied to by the United States government for forty years.
Herman Shaw.
The study ran from 1932 to 1972. Six hundred Black men in Macon County, Alabama — three hundred and ninety-nine of them with syphilis — were told they were being treated for "bad blood."
They were not treated. That was the point. The researchers wanted to watch the disease run its full course to death and then examine the bodies.
When penicillin became the standard cure in the 1940s, the men were deliberately kept away from it.
The study's staff intervened to stop them being treated elsewhere, including through the draft board.
It was ended in 1972 only because a whistleblower went to the press.
By the time of the apology, only eight of the men were still alive. Five were well enough to travel.
Herman Shaw stood at the podium in the East Room, at ninety-four, and spoke. He said the wounds that were inflicted could never be undone, but that he was there in the hope that it would never happen again and that it could begin to heal.
He had been a farmer his whole life. He had gone to the clinic because he was told he was being cared for.
The President apologised and said what the government had done was shameful.
That is the whole story. Forty years of being watched. Twenty-five more years of nothing. Then an hour in a nice room, and five old men, and the word sorry.
The Tuskegee survivors deserved more than an apology—they deserved to have what was done to them remembered. We created an ebook to keep these histories from being buried again savvypurchase.samcart.com/pr…

Never forget what white folks did to his body. He was beheaded, dissected, and skinned. They cut off body parts to keep and made a purse of his skin. His skull was passed down thru generations for 180yrs before it was returned to his descendants.
Never let them call us animals.

Dr. Erlin Gooch, an 87-year-old civil rights activist, was beaten, stomped, and robbed in her own home in Ripley, Tennessee. Her attackers used her bank card and walked away. Three weeks later, no arrests. No one should be attacked like this in their own home! She deserves justice. wreg.com/news/they-left-her-…

Black people make up 13.6% of the population in the U.S. and account for 69% of all exonerations.
