After watching the body cam footage from the horrific murder of Henry Nowak my blood is boiling. The poor boy was a victim of a violent racist attack. He is literally bleeding to death begging for help saying he has been stabbed. The officers mock and ignore him rather than giving him aid and arrest what is essentially now a corpse. These officers are just as responsible for Henry Nowak's murder as Vickrum Digwa and must face severe consequences. The entire system is corrupt in the UK. This did not happen in a vacuum. All the institutions responsible for creating a culture where this was allowed to happen must be dismantled.
DDG shows love to DeenTheGreat, saying people used to clown him, but now everybody’s tuning in and watching his clips 🔥
“Y’all was clowning him before, now y’all wanna pull up now that the party lit.”
OKC bites on the pump fake, hits LeBron as he goes up for the attempt, no free-throws!!
I don’t care what the broadcast says, this has always been free-throws. Shai has gotten free-throws this series doing this!!
So you mean to tell me that someone down your ancestry line survived being chaıned to other human bodięs for several months in the bottom of a disease-infested ship during the Middle Passage, lost their language, customs and traditions, picked up the English language as best they could while working free of charge from sun up to sun down as they watched babies sold from out of their arms and women rapęd by ruthless sIave owners.
Took names with no last names, no birth certificates, no heritage of any kind, braved the Underground Railroad, survived the Civil Wąr to enter into sharecropping... Learned to read and write out of sheer will and determination, faced the burning crosses of the KƘK, everted their eyes at the black bodies swinging from ropes hųng on trees...
Fought in World Wąrs as soldiers only to return to America as boys, marched in Birmingham, hosed in Selma, jailed in Wilmington, assassinated in Memphis, segregated in the South, ghettoed in the North, ignored in history books, stereotyped in Hollywood...
and in spite of it all, someone in your family line endured every era to make sure you would get here, but you receive one rejection, face one obstacle, lose one friend, get overlooked, and you want to quit?
How dare you entertain the very thought of quitting. People, you will never know, survived from generation to generation so you could succeed. Don’t you dare let them down!
It is NOT in our DNA to quit!
there’s a point in your 30s when you realize hosting BBQs and dinner parties is the new club scene and high key better without the randoms, overpriced drinks, and terrible DJs still playing Dreams and Nightmares
🇺🇸 Rapper Kuttem Reese got pulled over, police found $60,000 in cash and a legal gun, and one officer was caught on bodycam saying "please be stolen" while counting the stacks.
"Please be stolen," on camera, in uniform. Not too smart
Steve Kerr on his biggest concern about America Today
“When I finished college almost forty years ago, if you went to school and got a degree, you could get a job and you could buy a house. Now that's out of reach for most people between student debt and home prices and the economy slanted toward the very, very top one per cent. We don't really have a middle class, and we don't have what used to represent the American Dream, which was: you can do better than your parents. We're going backward on all that. Our family is lucky. I'm in a position where my family can live well. But there are millions of people out there, young people who are looking at the horizon and saying, "I did everything I was told I needed to do, and I can't buy a house, and I can't chase my dream." Think about what that means for the stability of communities and cities and a whole country.”
