It’s absolutely mind-blowing how evidence comes out showing that Karmelo Anthony was actually attacked and jumped; he even ran away, and they pursued him. He had no choice but to defend himself; he was scared. It’s crazy how the media has portrayed Austin Metcalf as an angel when in reality Karmelo was the victim.
Just was telling my daughter yesterday what my grandma told me. My great uncle, my great grandmas brother. Got killed by a white womans husband over a lie. Drunk white man walked into the court and shot him dead in court. Grandma said thats apart of history in Blanchard, Tx few miles outside of Livingston, Tx.
This is what we mean by white privilege. A white man can slap a police officer and steal his car without a single shot being fired, yet a one-year-old Black child can be shot because her mother was suspected of shoplifting.
While it's nice to think "he won" he's still going to have to endure what'll likely be a months if not years long legal battle before he sees a dime. All while living with the trauma that this could happen to him again, anywhere, at any time. Simply for the color of his skin.
