Protect and Serve



"We're the ones that have our skulls crushed, not by 
the Ku Klux Klan, but by policemen! Only because we 
want to enforce what they call the Supreme Court 
decision." -Malcom X




THIS is where our American history began.

The total number of Blacks murdered because of the Middle Passage, American slavery, and the reverberations of the latter is estimated at..
99 MILLION

 The number is still growing..
With the help of the
American Police Department

 
 Danroy Henry
Danroy Henry Jr. was looking to enjoy Pace University's homecoming with several of his teammates and college friends at a restaurant close to his school's campus.But after a run-in with local law enforcement in Westchester County, Henry's life ended before the celebration began. Police officers approached Henry's car shortly after midnight on Oct 17. Henry apparently attempted to drive away from the police officer. Two officers then drew their weapons and began to fire into Henry's car. The 20 year-old sophomore died at the scene. Henry was unarmed.

      Sean Bell
 The Sean Bell shooting incident took place in the New York City borough of Queens, New York, United States on November 25, 2006, in which 3 men were shot a total of fifty times by a team of both plainclothes and undercover NYPD officers, killing one of the men, Sean Bell and severely wounding two of his friends. The 3 officers that wrecklessly murdered this young man were discharged from the police force with no jail time.  It was the day before his wedding day.

Nicholas Heyward, Jr.
Nicholas Naquan Heyward, Jr. was 13 year old Honor student when a housing police officer shot and killed him for playing cops and robbers in a stairwell in Gowanus Houses with a TOY GUN, which has prompted Toys "R" Us to remove imitation guns from store shelves.The policeman who killed him was exonerated by the District Attorney and never faced any charges. 


Recent statistics published by the Stolen Lives Project estimate that the number of cases in the United States relating to police brutality has reached the thousands, but these statistics come with a disclaimer - many, if not most, of these instances are never reported due to fear of reprisal.


The police are killing black men for SPORT! Officers murder a a disproportionate amount of unarmed Black guys every year. But there isn't institutionalized racism in America? Right. The repercussions for these senseless crimes are REPREHENSIBLE. The most these officers of the law have gotten for MURDER are a slap on the wrist.

Timothy Thomas- April 7, 2001
Thomas was running from the police on account of a few misdemeanor warrants, he allegedly reached in his waistband. One of 12 Officer Roach fired one fatal shot, hitting Mr. Thomas in the chest. No weapon was found on Mr. Thomas.   All evidence in the case is under seal.

I believe that there is a systematic persecution of African American men in America. I speak specifically about MEN in alot of my posts because these are our kings and I feel they have no voice in this society. 

On another note, I receive emails pretty much telling me that I too often entertain 'conspiracies'. The educated elite write me all the time.. I recognize that alot of my subscribers are formally educated in the same way that I am but my guess is that some of you were distracted from some of the facts that affect you and your people, I don't know, maybe the focus was on other things like... patriotism. They point to Barack Obama as being an African American and now that he is the president, this means that we are taking some steps. So my question is, what are we taking steps toward? Independence...? Or assimilation. Sometimes I feel that no matter what I say on this blog, some of you will never be convinced, I will continue to receive emails full of rebuttals but as long as one person is reached, I don't care. Consciousness is a gift from God, and not everyone has this gift. I go in with the information,  and people pop alot of ignorance in my email but I will continue with that food. I will keep feeding my brothers and sisters because there are alot of mentally starving people out here. I live in reality.
