Rich Chow was not guilty, but Karmelo Anthony was. If that doesn’t show you the state of the world and why we HAVE to start showing up to perform our civic duties, idk what else to say.
No joke man. It’s depressing as fuck sometimes being Black in this country. It don’t fucking matter what we do it’ll never be okay for us to simply exist!
The dominant society has perfected the art of willful racial blindness, aggressively demanding we pretend race is an ancillary factor in the justice system. It is not a factor; it is THE ONLY factor. The Karmelo verdict is a pure distillation of white supremacy masquerading as objective justice.
