Colonialism is not a thinking machine, nor a body endowed with reasoning faculties . It is violence in its natural state, and it will only yield when confronted with greater violence.

FL police use A.I. to identify a vehicle theft suspect from surveillance video. Based on an "85% match" they arrest and charge Jalil Richardson. He spends 3 months in jail. He loses his job, his home, and custody of his kids.
Richardson lives in N.C.
He's never been to Florida. And his timesheet shows him at work at the time of the crime. No one checked before charging him. https://t.co/2AcQYwq30f
"La mujer ocupa un puesto muy importante en nuestra revolución, sin ellas no podríamos construir la revolución en Burkina Faso, son la mitad del cielo. Pero su liberación no es fácil, están oprimidas por hombres y a su vez también están oprimidas por el sistema".

-Potenció el ingreso de la mujer burkinesa en el mercado laboral.
-Obligó a que los maridos hicieran la compra cada 8 de marzo mientras la mujer se quedaba en casa, como ejemplo de la lucha para romper la esclavitud doméstica.
-Entregó un fusil a las mujeres y las integró batallones femeninos del ejército revolucionario.
-Concedió la licencia de maternidad para las mujeres durante el embarazo.
-Prohibió la mutilación genital femenina y luchó contra las prácticas misóginas feudales herederas de la religión
-Prohibió los matrimonios infantiles.

Chow who had a history of shooting at customers. Chased down a 14 year old who hadn’t stolen anything. Shot him in the back. Then had his son lie about having a gun pointed at him. It worked because black people’s lives aren’t worth even a $1 water bottle in this country. So if you are one of those people who like to say well all lives matter just know you are lying to yourself and you know it.
Wait, what? The major chemical disaster in Garden Grove, California, that forced 50,000 Americans to evacuate their homes occurred at a facility that makes components for Israel’s fighter jets. We are an occupied nation ruled by two genocidal Zionist parties.
Charges against Israeli biolab terrorist Ori Solomon were dropped by Israeli-born, Trump-appointed prosecutor Sigal Chattah.
Her appointment as prosecutor was ruled illegal last year, but Trump ignored it.
Chattah says this is because she “knows where the bodies are buried.”
