Think it's important we don't forget it was Britain who enriched themselves by enslaving Africans. Then they banned it, and used their navy to block other European slave traders

[Ash Sarkar @AyoCaesar]

Haiti abolished slavery in 1804 - 29 years before Britain introduced the Slavery Abolition Act.

[Janet Daby MP @JanetDaby]

Historian Prof David Olusoga told BBC News Statues are about saying 'This was a great man who did great things.' That is not true, he [Colston] was a slave trader and a murderer."

Why is ending racism a debate?

I’d like to tell you a story about Bruce Springsteen and the New York City Police Department.

@NadineDorries Who brought the horse to a demonstration? Your compassion for the horse is admirable but your total lack of empathy for the humanity indicates your fascist principals are your main reasons for tweeting

[John Gallagher, Jr. @JohnGallagherJr]

But what did we expect? In 2017, our POTUS gave a speech on camera in which he gleefully encouraged New York cops to be violent when performing arrests as rows of uniformed police officers laughed and applauded from the bleachers behind him. Where did we think this would lead us?

[Amber Goth @AmberGoth]

I seem to have lost a few followers by putting F*CK OFF TORIES in my bio, so have deleted it for the puritanical wasp-suckers who don't like a bit of healthy profanity and cussing.😂(ha ha)

What I meant to say was FUCK OFF TORIES. (Oops, did I just say that out loud?

[John Gallagher, Jr. @JohnGallagherJr]

To recap, the president of the second largest police union in New York City publicly declared war on both its mayor and its citizens in the last four months. It’s not making many headlines right now but it seems like a red flag and a pretty big deal to me!

[John Gallagher, Jr. @JohnGallagherJr]

Make no mistake. The police are in full on revenge mode now and it will only get uglier. If a Springsteen song can get under their skin and set them off then surely they are fuming at having their absolute power and immunity threatened and defied so brazenly on the world stage.

[John Gallagher, Jr. @JohnGallagherJr]

The Sergeants Benevolent Association’s account was briefly suspended because posting people’s private information without their knowledge, also known as doxxing, is a dangerous violation of Twitter Rules. The tweet was removed and Mullins quickly regained control of the account.

[John Gallagher, Jr. @JohnGallagherJr]

In February, Mullins tweeted that members of the NYPD were “declaring war on Mayor de Blasio and did not respect him.” He also tweeted a video that referred to black people as “monsters” and public housing as “war zones.” This is the head of NYC’s second largest police union.

[John Gallagher, Jr. @JohnGallagherJr]

This week he put out a statement praising officers for their recent performance during protests. He proclaimed that the NYPD answered to a “higher power” and will “win the war on New York City.” Then he went on Fox News and begged Trump to call in the National Guard to occupy us.

[John Gallagher, Jr. @JohnGallagherJr]

The thing about Mullins is, cops love him! He’s been a union boss since 2002. They love that he visits Trump in D.C. and trashes the Dem Mayor and owns the libs on his divisive, partisan Twitter account. How do you change that? How do you fix what doesn’t see itself as broken?

[John Gallagher, Jr. @JohnGallagherJr]

Yesterday the NYPD sought and was granted the right to arrest anyone and hold them for more than 24 hours in crowded jail cells without arraignment while the covid-19 pandemic still looms. This is a rare and stunning suspension of habeas corpus.

[jordan @JordanUhl]

This is incredible.

Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey showed up to a protest & tried to spew hollow platitudes about "putting [police] in their place." The organizers asked him if he would commit to defunding the police.

He said no.

They forced him to leave.

No one from the government has appeared on @Channel4News for three weeks, and for the entire week we have not been given the opportunity to ask a question at the press conference. Extraordinary lack of engagement during a global crisis. #coronavirus

Throughout the world people in positions of power & authority seem so complacent/turn a blind eye to wrongs for too long: because their lives are OK, they become oblivious to the lives of others not being OK:
