It Disgusts Me That Some People Say They Don't Eat Any Form Of Meat Because They Don't Support Killing

It disgusts me that some people say they don't eat any form of meat because they don't support killing animals but when it comes to the Genocide happening in Palestine, Sudan and Congo they turn a blind eye to the thousands of women,men and children being killed , many losing their homes , families and humans rights .

If you claim to be against violence raise your voice and don't be silent.

The Panthers used to ride around and follow the police.

So the cops would pull over some sorry black person, and get ready to rough him up, but then there were the Panthers right behind them. Watching, armed to the teeth, and citing legal statutes. It’s inspirational.

why do you post your tip link instead of using the tumblr tipping? no shade but I would think making it easier would help

So I was using the Tumblr tipping thing at first, but 2 things happened:

They removed 40 cents from every dollar tipped

AND

The money never actually made it to my account. I contacted staff and they pretty much said to be patient, but my last tip was like 2 months ago? And still haven't seen any of it.

Tipping is obviously not a requirement, but if someone is kind enough to do so, I'd like it to actually make it to me instead of Tumblr keeping it.

Emmett* Till, but yes! The more you know!

An Early Run-In With Censors Led Rod Serling to 'The Twilight Zone'

His failed attempts to bring the Emmett Till tragedy to television forced him to get creative

The miscarriage of justice proved a galvanizing point in the Civil Rights Movement. Rod Serling, a 30-year-old rising star in a golden age of dramatic television, watched the events play out in the news. He believed firmly in the burgeoning medium’s power for social justice. “The writer’s role is to be a menacer of the public’s conscience,” Serling later said. “He must have a position, a point of view. He must see the arts as a vehicle of social criticism and he must focus the issues of his time.”

Soon after the trial concluded, Serling, riding off the success of his most well-received teleplay to date, felt compelled write a teleplay around the racism that led to Till’s murder. But the censorship that followed by advertisers and networks, fearful of blowback from white, Southern audiences, forced Serling to rethink his approach. His response, ultimately, was “The Twilight Zone,” the iconic anthology series that spoke truth to the era’s social ills and tackled themes of prejudice, bigotry, nuclear fears, war, among so many others.
