Seems Like Murder Here

"BLACK RAGE"


Today in the Twin Cities, Baton Rouge, Chicago, and across America... "everyday seems like murder."

From drones to police brutality to innocent children gunned down in gang wars to educational credit factories, etc... "we sing the blues" in a kill first society.


Ida B. Wells 1893 or 2016?


"The lawlessness (lynching) here described is not confined to one locality. In the past ten years over a thousand colored men, women and children have been butchered, murdered and burnt in all parts of the South. The details of these horrible outrages seldom reach beyond the narrow world where they occur. Those who commit the murders write the reports, and hence these lasting blots upon the honor of a nation cause but a faint ripple on the outside world. They arouse no great indignation and call forth no adequate demand for justice. The victims were black, and the reports are so written as to make it appear that the helpless creatures deserved the fate which overtook them."






...and when will the lynchings and killings end?
