🚨 Arkansas State Trooper Michael Austin Kennedy resigned after his wife filed 30+ screenshots of his white supremacist text messages in their divorce case including calling areas “N*GGERLAND” bragging about detained Hispanics as “trophies,” and pushing to repeal the 19th Amendment.
The messages to his wife Alana were packed with racial slurs against Black and Hispanic people, rants blaming “illegal immigrants” and Black people for traffic and crime, and extreme views like banning Muslims from America. One message read: “You don’t f*king hate them enough. The s*t that clogged up [their son’s] toilet is worth more to me than any of them.”
Kennedy also sent selfies posing with detained Hispanic individuals while on duty, calling them his “trophy.”
Alana amended her custody filing seeking sole custody. She stated his beliefs would “poison the minds of the children” and that the kids feared him because of his hate and irrational thoughts.
Kennedy resigned from the Arkansas State Police on May 15 shortly after the messages surfaced. In court papers he acknowledged the language but claimed it was “outdated” and didn’t reflect his values today after therapy and church guidance. Arkansas State Police reviewed his traffic stops and citations and said there was no indication his views affected his job performance.
A man sworn to protect and serve all citizens was privately holding this level of hatred.
What screening or accountability should law enforcement agencies have so white supremacist views like these don’t stay hidden until they surface in divorce court?
At just 13 years old, Alena Analeigh McQuarter made history as the youngest Black student ever accepted into a U.S. medical school.
Now 17, this brilliant young queen has already graduated high school at 12, earned a Master’s degree, interned at NASA, founded The Brown STEM Girl to inspire other girls of color, and continues blazing trails in medicine and science.
Her journey is living proof that when purpose, discipline, and brilliance collide, nothing can hold you back not even age.
The future is in incredible hands! 👏🏽
I did not know that Memorial Day was created by Black Americans. I literally just found out today through a post and decided to also do my own research. They really don’t teach the youth shit in schools.
