Atlanta Human Rights Group Protests Racially Motivated Murder in Mississippi
Let me be 100% clear.
I support the free speech rights of these protesters in Atlanta to assemble together and protest whatever they want to.
If the authorities came and arbitrarily shut them down I could be compelled to defend their 1st Amendment rights.
Unfortunately - this is where our commonality ends.
Detroit Free Press - 16 People Shot, 6 Murdered In A 24 Hour Period
(You know the routine - "There will be no protests".)
As "The Bloody Summer Of Atlanta 2011" comes to a close - a series of "shots into the back of the head", shots in the backs, Black bodies being dumped out of cars onto the ground passed by without nary a protest march saying "We Are Not Going To Tolerate This To Our People Or In Our Community".
Yet as I continue to find the right ratio which can satisfy an equation that I have been toiling with for some time - this latest act perpetuates my bewilderment.
The fatal equation that I am working on asks:
1 White Killer Of A Black Man is equal to X number of Black Killers of Black Men.
The reaction seen by the Black community being evidence of non-equivalency.
“Take Back The Black Community Consciousness". It has been hijacked by embedded operatives who don't intend to develop the COMPETENCIES within. We once controlled this consciousness, focusing our activism directly upon our permanent interests. Today the "Malcolm X Political Football Game" has us as starters and some believe that this playing time translates into absolute progress for our people. My goal is to hold our permanent interests in their faces, forcing them to explain their actions.
