Justice 👏 for 👏 Linden 👏 Cameron 👏
Tell me.
If the cops will shoot a mentally ill white CHILD in cold blood, and he won't get justice, how the fuck do we expect the cops to give a shit about black people?

Tiktok comments.
First comment from jolly_good_ginger reads "allow me to help. I'm an ESL teacher. The 3 k's in "Republicans" are very loud and pronounced. That's where you've been getting it wrong. 🤣"
Three replies to his comment.
First reply from serralucyk reads "krepublikansk".
Second reply from jomiel_torres replied serralucyk that saying, "Republikkkans".
Third reply replied to jomiel_torres saying "nailed it".

(Note for anyone using a screen reader because I'm not sure how the screen reader will handle the weird spellings. First reply was spelling "Republicans" like k r e p u b l i k a n s k. Second one was r e p u b l i k k k a n s.)
Help.
I'm dead.

I don't know what's worse. Learning that the West Philadelphia police bombed a house where several Black activists were staying, and then let the resulting fire continue to burn down a Black city block killing 11 people.
Or that the University of Pennsylvania just released that they've had the remains of the missing children for 36 years and using them in their classes?
At this point, it's all a conspiracy. The government and ultra-rich can't be trusted.
Fuck everyone.
(And I don't mean that in the antisemitic conspiracy theory way.)
These children's remains were declared missing after the police bombed and burned down their city block.
And now we're finding out that some rich dipshit asshole University had them the whole time.
And were USING them WITHOUT PERMISSION WHILE THEIR FAMILIES WERE STILL LOOKING FOR THEM in their classes.
That the fuck.
At this rate, I've learned too much in 2020 and 2021. You could tell me literally anything. The truth is stranger than fiction, and the government is outright admitting that they're hiding shit from us.
Jesus.

‘I Can’t Breathe’: Video shows white policeman laying on top of crying black girl
“A video posted yesterday evening on Instagram shows a white police officer laying on top of a crying Black girl as she vomits and says, "I can't breathe," through labored breaths. Someone contacted the Kaufman County, Texas sheriff's department to report that 18-year-old Nekia Trigg was jumping in front of cars in traffic. Trigg is a resident of Forney, Texas. When the seven-minute video begins, an officer, identified as Kaufman County Deputy Conner Martin, is laying on top of Trigg as women around them scream.”
I haven't seen anyone talk about this yet on here and I'm not sure what else to do. The Instagram post was taken down but the video has spread to Twitter. Officers arrested her mother for asking to loosen her daughter's handcuffs, and Martin was reportedly not wearing his bodycam properly as well.
Please PLEASE fucking share. This monster has used his badge to abuse this girl and borderline sexually assault her and was only placed on leave.
Hope I got the whole thing. Here you go. A lesson on how language effects perception of slavery.

ALL BLACK LIVES MATTER.
Black people have experienced so much pain and violence as a collective worldwide. We’re all exhausted, in pain and continuously grieving.
When will it all end?💔
The last survivors of the Tulsa Race Massacre.
Hughes Van Ellis 100 years old.
Lessie Benningfield 106
Viola Fletcher 107
It breaks my heart to think how young they were when it happened, and how even at that age it impacted them. 💔💔
Obligatory, I'm showing you the images of living victims to show you it wasn't that long ago because people are alive to remember it.
Obligatory don't forget this was Black Wallstreet that they burned down. Remember that Black people had made something for themselves since slavery, but white people burned it down.
Obligatory don't forget some of the people involved in burning it down were police officers.

JUSTICE FOR CASEY GOODSON
On December 4th, 2020, Casey Christian Goodson Jr. (23 years old) was shot three times in the back and murdered by a Sheriff’s Deputy as he was entering his home in Columbus, Ohio. Goodson’s family stated that he was returning home from a dentist appointment, holding a Subway sandwich, his face mask, and his keys, when he was shot.
Two days later, the Columbus Police Department made a statement alleging that James Meade, the deputy responsible for Goodson’s death, saw a man believed to be Goodson with a gun while driving. Meade then approached Goodson after he exited his car and walked home, where he was shot.
Hours after the shooting, the US Marshal for the Southern District of Ohio, Peter Tobin, confirmed that Goodson was not the fugitive they were searching for. However, Tobin also added that he believed that the shooting was justified, claiming that Goodson was shot after he refused to drop his “weapon.”
Yet another Black man murdered by the police.
DEMAND JUSTICE.

On December 10, 2020, Brandon Bernard is scheduled to be executed by the federal government for a crime he committed when he was 18 years old. He has spent 21 years on death row. Five out of the nine surviving jurors that found him guilty and one of his prosecutors no longer agree with his sentence. Please spread his story on social media, email President Trump, and call the Justice Department to ask them to commute his sentence to life without parole. Brandon Bernard’s crime is incompatible with his punishment and we cannot allow the federal government to follow through with this.
Please click the source link to be taken to his website, which details his life in prison and ways you can advocate for him. In the replies are a page with specific actions we can take to help his case and an Instagram post to share.
In five hours, Brandon Bernard will be executed. He has worked his whole adult life to atone for what he did and rehabilitate others and help stop young people from straying for the right path. Please, if you’re from America, consider calling!
I say and repeat: Transphobia is colonialism and gender binarism is racism.
Thank you @reaux07 because this came across my FYP because you reposted it.
