My father didn’t pass away.
He was assassinated.
A 1967 poll reflected that he was one of the most hated men in America.
Most hated.
Many who quote one #mlk line, tweet egregious AI photos of him, and evoke him to deter justice actually despise #TheInconvenientKing .

The lengths these Republicans, aka Lost Cause Descedents, will go to not tell 🇺🇸 history fully. They either want it erased or 🍒 picked to suit how "they" want it to be.
Which tells me they know the truth and know if you know you'll put 1 & 2 together about them. #Spoutible #staywoke #WokeIsGood

It’s OK teach Oklahoma schoolchildren about the Tulsa Race Massacre, just don’t tell them it was motivated by the color of anyone’s skin, the state superintendent of schools said at a July 6 forum.

Miss me with the narrow white minds who refuse to understand why reparations matter. It's not that hard. Every colonial power is responsible for the legacy of unfathomable trauma & racial inequality they created. Every single one.

As a Black person living in 🇺🇸, I long ago stopped celebrating #July4th .
Before I even knew of a #Juneteenth . However, that's my day of "Freedom."
July 4th 1776 was not. My ppl were still slaves to ppl who won theirs.
And seeing how 🇺🇸 still operates, I'm still not totally free. #Spoutible

And that adds to our frustration bc 1 minute ppl wanna stand with us and have progress by voting for Obama or protesting then turn around and say "progressive or bust" or vote for Trump who are either against those policies and not speaking on advancing it enough, if at all.
That's what we face.

The question is not why are Black ppl so frustrated, pissed, overwhelmed, doubtful about 🇺🇸, etc.
We get tired of talking about it.
The question is are you listening to Black ppl? Are you doing your due diligence by getting the right resources to explain the cause for Black equality?

And because it's national we need a national remedy.
The George Floyd Act is a start.
Republicans are protecting the police. Tim Scott killed the bill. There has to be a national push.
"Qualified Immunity" has to go.
Not reworked. Gone. They hide behind it. Get rid of it.

The police unions, most of them, want no accountability for their actions. It's been reported that white supremacists have infiltrated the police departments for decades now.
The MSM, left and right, will have you believe these racial, systematic things are isolated.
Not, it's not. It's national.

And if you really wanna understand 🇺🇸 policing you don't start with the narratives of what ppl say it is today.
You go back to how it started.
As slave patrols. What do you think, "Law & Order" means and the "Crime" talking points from the right means?
Control and fear the Blacks. #Spoutible

The way you know that white Christian* nationalism is sacrilegious is that it is the literal creation of God in man’s image — and the image they choose is the worst kind of man: cruel, greedy, racist, misogynistic and partisan. If God is real, he or she doesn’t need man’s assistance.

What are we doing on the Judiciary Committee to address ongoing corruption at the Supreme Court? That's not an idle question. I literally DO NOT KNOW what the Democrats are doing, or even trying to do.
