On August 7, 1970, guns registered to Angela Davis were used in a Marin County courthouse takeover. A judge was killed. Rather than ask how a 17-year-old got those weapons or why cages create this kind of desperation, the state targeted a Black woman organizer who was challenging white supremacy, prisons, and police violence.
They put Angela Davis on the FBI’s Most Wanted list, charged her with capital offenses, and held her 16 months with the death penalty on the table.
On June 4, 1972, an all-white jury heard the evidence and cleared her of every charge.
This is not ancient history. Angela Davis is still alive. The same playbook of criminalizing dissent, overcharging, sensationalizing, then quietly backing away when the facts collapse is still used on our communities today.
Remember that when you hear prosecutors and police talk about “dangerous” voices and “public safety,” and remember that our people are not defined by the lies written in police reports or on wanted posters.
DOGE didn't make a dent in the deficit, but it did bring back screwworm and enable a historically large new Ebola outbreak, so it's not like they didn't achieve *anything*
For months people acted as if Karmelo Anthony was unquestionably the aggressor.
Now the video appears to show Austin Metcalf initiating the confrontation, and witness statements reportedly corroborate that sequence of events.
Self-defense isn't a legal obligation to stand there and hope the other person stops. The law focuses on perceived imminent danger, not whether someone waited until after they were injured.
The more evidence comes out, the less the original narrative holds up. @realAFLF@B1TuckerCarlson@NextGenAction@MrDennisByron@bAnthonYsr@queenie4rmnola@openmymind5
Against huge odds, Chris Smalls established the first-ever independent, worker-led union at an Amazon warehouse in US
He could have basked in his new celebrity, but he chose to risk his life to break the genocidal Israeli blockade of Gaza
He is a hero - and an inspiration
The BBC make me physically feel sick.
BBC News is running a strapline: "Israel and Lebanon agree ceasefire if Hezbollah stops attacks".
Which is astoundingly dishonest framing.
ICE cause car crash during high speed chase—at school bus stop.
Driver crashes on top of fence post—that gets stuck in his chest.
Firefighters cut the pole and rush him to hospital still impaled.
"Why was ICE chasing through our neighborhood with all our kids outside?" cried homeowner.
"It's insane to me—this is not supposed to he happening in our residential communities."
Local reporters confirmed they saw 3 or 4 school buses drive right past the accident site—with even more kids riding bicycles down the street.
Multiple neighbors stated that ICE agents were involved in the pursuit—and saw dozens of agents in green vests marked "ERO."
Local police have explicitly said they were not involved in any way.
The 30-year-old driver is currently listed in critical condition.
Firefighters cut the metal fence post but left a section in his upper right chest—so they could transport him and safely remove it in the emergency room.
Incident occurred near the intersection of Warwick Street and Whitlock Avenue on the west side of Detroit, Michigan.
It is Albanians, not Americans, who are protesting against American corruption.
The US appears to have accepted the corruption of the Trump family, so we Americans have to rely upon the sound anti-corruption sentiments of others.
Truly embarrassing, but thank you, Albania!
With Elon Musk amplifying anti-Muslim propaganda and censoring pro-Muslim voices, I would like to have a test here:
Say hello if you don't have a problem that I'm a Muslim and that I'm just your friend on twitter.
