I am a long time political and human rights activist, journalist/commentary writer and organizer.

There is a reason that it seems like the people Kyle Rittenhouse shot and killed were Black, and why lots of folks have made that assumption.
Check out my analysis about why that is the case.

@BullyCreative Who in the world are these so called people who come onto concerned tweets and say people deserve their fate. If this true you heartless harlots deserve to die horrendous deaths yourselves.

Hey folks support me and my struggle against Covid pneumonia by going to Mpls North High game tonight 730 North Central University 910 Elliott Ave Mpls. https://t.co/nrJLIoXkjy via @mnspokesman

@BullyCreative Brother DA they will never get to that point because it ain't about public safety it's about securing the safety of profits by making sure they keep Black ppl and the Other as close to the plantation and second class status as possible. And to do this by any means necessary

[Mel Reeves @mellaneous1]

@BullyCreative The absolute truth!

[Mel Reeves @mellaneous1]

@everythingcyd_ @almostjes Natural! Yes!

The CDC announcement just demonstrates that they are a front for Big Business. This is irresponsible and not based on the science. So ppl can just expose others after 5 days so there can be business as usual?

[Hannah Lichtsinn, MD @DoctorLix]

Oh hell no @CDCgov. Your job isn’t to minimize “disruptions” (ie. people absent from the work-force while recovering.)

Your job is to prevent the spread of disease across our population. This is atrocious.

[Mel Reeves @mellaneous1]

@SarahIman7 So sorry for your loss. She looks as if she was really full of life. ESPECIALLY HARD LOSING A CHILD LOSS MIDDLE GRANDON IN 2020

[Mel Reeves @mellaneous1]

She is right the kids will learn they will remember they will indeed be a force to be reckoned w as the challenge the values that put profit before people and the mechanisms to keep the workers divided.

NEW: Warrior Met Coal execs got bonuses this year while the striking miners struggled to afford Christmas gifts for their kids.

But we visited Alabama with @GrimKim & saw an incredible outpouring of support for the miners—and their families—who have been on strike since April 1.

Jesus knew how to give us hope and real perspective. The rich don't have it all. Money will pass but the spirit lasts forever and one day us poor folks will use that Spirit to rise up and take back what's rightfully ours, the people, the salt of the Earth

[𝓑𝓮𝓵𝓵𝓪 𝓒𝓲𝓪𝓸 @pujalovesunions]

apparently menards workers are organizing a union??

[Mel Reeves @mellaneous1]

This is criminal! This is evil! No one should die simply trying to food on the table and a roof over their heads. It's time to revolt.

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

EXCLUSIVE: Two Amazon workers died within hours of each other at the company’s Bessemer warehouse last month.

One was denied sick leave before suffering a fatal stroke.

Workers tell @GrimKim that 6 people have died at the facility this year and Amazon is trying to cover it up.

[Mel Reeves @mellaneous1]

Still battling Covid in Hennepin County Medical Center. Been here for a few days now. Still battling. Be safe folks mask up!

[Mel Reeves @mellaneous1]

@Josh_G_Roth So coaches are leaving players they said they were committed to all over the football landscape in the most sneaky and underhanded ways and the U of Miami is embarrassing itself. You are the one embarrassing yourself. You should have saved words and just told us you are a "hater"

[Mel Reeves @mellaneous1]

#KimPotterTrial I found it interesting there was little mention of the fact that a juror (52) said Potter arrived at a friends house to investigate an accident but began questioning why she was dating her Black boyfriend telling her she shouldnt be dating a Black man

[Mel Reeves @mellaneous1]

The local Black weekly will be diligently giving the people's perspective on the Kimberly Potter trial online at the Minnesota Spokesman-Recorder. This is my latest on the trial.https://t.co/uSK5WIRbOT

[Mel Reeves @mellaneous1]

@DoualyX Hey did you get about your old friend in Mpls? Keep up the good work!

[Mel Reeves @mellaneous1]

@MCDal47 @thephatic @AlanTudyk Only someone very naive believes that the trial was about self defense. Rittenhouse left his home his state to put himself in position to harm people he did not agree with he was walking around looking for an opportunity to shoot folks. And he succeeded

[Mel Reeves @mellaneous1]

@ChazBall @bobst_josh @msolurin You are being dishonest. It has already been revealed why this kid came to Wisconsin he was recorded earlier that week saying if he had his gun he would shoot folks. You because of your dishonesty are more dangerous than the avoid racists and fascists!@

[Mel Reeves @mellaneous1]

@jemelehill Sis you are a good sport! I am impressed with how well you are taking people giving you a hard time about Sparty's woes.
