A short list of everyone who got reparations:
- slave owners who went bankrupt after the Civil War
- Jewish survivors of the Holocaust
- Japanese survivors of US internment camps
- Native Americans through the Indian Claims Commission and multiple other legislation
- Miners for radiation exposure
- Sterilization victims
- U.S. farmers during Trump 1.0
There is no reason Black people shouldnt be compensated for centuries of slavery and decades of segregation. We’re not even out of Jim Crow.
Surely a white male being killed for exercising his 1st amendment rights while also using his 2nd amendment rights to carry a firearm being killed will make a difference to those who are obsessed with preserving the white race and the constitution.
Bombing Venezuela while coordinating a genocide in Palestine while threatening to attack Iran (again) while destabillizing Somalia while carrying out a heist in the DRC...
US imperialism is the greatest threat to peace and security in our world today and it's not even close.
Refusing to be numb is a radical act. Caring about the earth while they destroy it. Caring about strangers while they deport or bomb them. You’re not ‘too sensitive.’ Don’t let people make you feel ashamed of your empathy and humanity. You’re still human. Stay that way.
I LOVE people that KNOW ME! People that know my personality, my tone, how I communicate, my sense of humor, my heart, my intentions. People that I don’t have to sugarcoat or over explain myself to. People that aren’t up in arms every time I open my mouth.
Israel bombed and murdered the Prime Minister of Yemen along with several cabinet members, and there is zero outrage in Western media… it’s barely even a story. The level of impunity is breathtaking.
Minnesota is heartbroken.
From the officers responding, to the clergy and teachers providing comfort, to the hospital staff saving lives, we will get through this together.
Hug your kids close.
Reminder that there is no war in Palestine.
There is no Palestinian army, navy or air force.
There is just Israel, slaughtering civilians & clearing land - which is called ethnic cleansing.
