nopenis4mePlease don’t forget Darrien Hunt, a 22 year old cosplayer from Utah who was carrying a replica sword who was shot 6 times in the back while he was fleeing for his life 2 months ago
The cops tried covering this one up too:
- He was shot from behind, running away and fleeing like we see in the surveillance tape where he is running for his life
- The police originally claimed that he was swinging his sword and lunged at him before they begun shooting him. The police chief ruled the shooting justified. This is contrary to the evidence which indicates he was shot in the back
- They allowed a police chief to make this ruling outside of a court of law, the investigation was carried out by an “officer-involved shooting protocol team”
- The sword was bought from a gift shop and did not have a sharp edge, yet in the report they claim he swung it at them and they were afraid of getting sliced
- The two cops who shot him are both reinstated: Schauerhamer and Judson
- The area is 93% white, 0.5% black
- The questioning of the cops was delayed and they’ve now altered their story (that Hunt lunged at them and that is why he ultimately died)
- The shot that killed him, though, was the shot in the back that he received while fleeing. He was shot a total of 6 times.
We are allowing police departments all over the country to get away with murder. They are held unaccountable for their murder. This is genocide. People are justifying this just like they justify Brown’s murder. Question everything. Don’t believe a word these genocidal police departments say all over the country. They are held above the law. This will keep happening if precedent is not set.
marxvxi bet liberals on tumblr are gonna think being polite to cashiers on black friday is the absolute apex of revolutionary socialist praxis meanwhile walmart workers are asking sympathetic members of the public to leaflet wal-mart stores and plan demonstrations at them but unfortunately nobody cares about the fate of labor so long as they can get their instant gratification
marigold97hope they burnt the uk flag too after this
liligiworldSee… This is the shit that bothered me with the thought of these Non-American protests. I don’t want folx in places like the U.K. thinking that somehow this is just about how awful the U.S. is. Y’all are complicit in anti-blackness as well. Ferguson is a representation of the antiblackness that plagues the entire planet. Like was said previously, I hope they burned the union jack too! Or else, y’all out here missing the fucking point.

thenatureinlifeAttending the Indigenous people sunrise ceremony this year. Also known as Unthanksgiving Day on Alcatraz Island.
Ar Pier 33 dozens of people gather together in a tradition 4 decades in the making. On Nov. 20 1969 American Indians from all tribes claimed Alcatraz Island as their land. For almost two years the people could not be moved. They built homes, gathered as one nation, and took back the land of their ancestors according to Richard Oakes.
Now, 40 years later, the people gather together once again to honor the memory of those people and all that they stood for. Held on what some indigenous people call “Unthanksgiving Day”, the Sunrise Ceremony is an event held annually to commemorate the occupation in the late 60’s.
With traditional dancing, rituals, and prayers, the many tribes of Northern California do their part to celebrate their heritage. They stand against what they feel is the tyranny of people who they felt cheated them out of their land many years ago. The sounds of the Miwok singers and the calling out of the names of the original occupiers of Alcatraz, American Indians ushered in a new era of resistance.

None of these, I think.
