Will you ever do a post of Dr. Frances Cress Welsing?
I’d figure after this much time you’ve had this platform doing post on subjects that fall in directly with her theory you’d ppdt something about her by now?

Why is our humanity always taken for granted? I’m so tired of being tired! Rest in power Mike Brown. May justice be served by any means necessary.

I would like to see Michael Browns baby pictures. It really hits me close to home since I do have a 5 yr old son bearing somewhat close resemblance. Especially the forehead…

Tone is something that’s always hard to discern in an online comment, but I can’t help but detect a bit of malice behind that comment.

And two months later, another young black male was shot dead by police in St. Louis!

“Pants up. Don’t loot.”
Yeah, like you really care if any Black person sags or loot.
As Malcolm X once said: “We live in a country that’s full of hypocrisy.”
A White cop can brutally kill a Black child for jaywalking but…
Can play a pick up game of basketball in the middle of the street with urban Black kids.
