SOLIDARITY. Until the last prison burns. Until the last border wall crumbles. Until the wretched of the earth rise to reclaim it. Until we are free. Ⓐ. ▽. ∞.
For anyone wondering, and for everyone that is sowing doubt, let me be clear: tonight in ATX was a joyful, black & mixed race, youth-led rebellion. Don’t believe the hype. #austinprotest#fuck12#GeorgeFloyd#BlackLivesMatter
Last night I fell asleep remotely watching a friend struggle to play a video game, which I realized is probably the most intimate human experience I’ve had in months 😂
This is a performative distraction from real policy changes. Bowser has consistently been on the wrong side of BLMDC history. This is to appease white liberals while ignoring our demands. Black Lives Matter means defund the police. @emilymbadger say it with us
okay we’ve got confirmation: a Black woman was arrested in the wheatsville parking lot today and when asked, cops said it was “protest related.” This means APD IS TRACKING PROTESTORS. Please please keep conversations on secure channels and turn off phones at protests.
#AustinProtests — @Austin_Police have some donated @tiffstreats cookies to hand out to protestors with offer to talk. Many protestors begin walking away without accepting, begin their march through downtown.
@Melanin__Qween From what I understand, the cops have told us that he exists, and is in critical condition, but refuse to release his name. @Bevo1312 do you know more?
nah it fucking scares me that twitter is almost the only news source rn. none of my fucking family or locals sees the disgusting stuff cops do at riots. all they know about is the looting.
Did we just get Martial Lawed??! So, he just Declared War on The Public??!! It’s not 1807 this is not Rebellion!!, but I think it’s about get all kinds of fucked up here!!
Anyone in Austin have an update on the condition of the person who got shot in the head by APD on the east side of 35 earlier this evening? We want to support you. #austinprotest#georgefloyd#acab
This is a US Senator from Arkansas, talking about calling in the 101st Airborne Division to quell the uprisings. You know— the same force that was called in to facilitate desegregation? In Arkansas?
Anarchy, rioting, and looting needs to end tonight.
If local law enforcement is overwhelmed and needs backup, let's see how tough these Antifa terrorists are when they're facing off with the 101st Airborne Division.
We need to have zero tolerance for this destruction.
