Self-defense is a racial privilege reserved when nonmelanated people kill Black people. It is denied to Black people when defending themselves against white aggressors.
George Zimmerman followed and killed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin and was acquitted after asserting self-defense. Kyle Rittenhouse killed two people and wounded another and was acquitted after a jury accepted his self-defense claim. Chikei Rick Chow chased 14-year-old Cyrus Carmack-Belton more than 100 yards and shot him in the back after falsely suspecting him of stealing; his defense argued he was protecting his son, and a jury found him not guilty of murder.
Zimmerman, Rittenhouse, and Chow had the complexion for the protection. Karmelo Anthony had the pigmentation for the condemnation.
Even after Anthony’s defense team put previously suppressed evidence before the court about Metcalf’s behavioral history, including racist graffiti, bullying, aggression, and other disciplinary problems stemming from anti-Black racism, the judge still denied him a new trial.
Don’t tell me race has nothing to do with how “self-defense” is heard, believed, accepted, and protected in America.
When Zimmerman claimed it, he walked. When Rittenhouse claimed it, he walked. When Chow claimed it, he walked. When a young Black man claimed it against a white aggressor with a well documented history of anti-Black, racist, violence, he got 35 years.
This is not equal justice. This is not blind justice. This is racism in Amerikkka.
Confederate Mississippi wants nothing more than Nolan Wells’ death to be swept under the rug like they’re historically known for doing.
Thank you to independent Black media and Nancy Grace for staying on their necks and leaving no stone unturned until the truth comes out.
🚨 BREAKING: MN Gov. Tim Walz says Chauvin will remain behind bars even if Trump pardons him.
Because a POTUS pardon only clears Chauvin's federal conviction, Walz noted MN would simply take custody so he serves his 22.5-year state sentence for George Floyd's murder.
GOOD!
BREAKING NEWS: Austin Metcalf has 20 pages of RACIST & VIOLENT behavioral history. Keep in mind Karmelo Anthony defended himself, AFTER Austin assaulted him first.

A single Black woman recently bought her first home in Antioch CA. She's since been constantly racially harassed by her neighbor Gabriel Ramirez, even to the point of having to obtain a restraining order. It seems to have little effect as he's seen continuing to harangue her.
