Jim Crow Terrorism

All Jim Crow did was move his racism into America's institutions. He comfortably resides in the economic policy rooms, the courthouses, the education system, the job market, the welfare office, the healthcare arena, art and entertainment etc. When I was a little boy, my mother use to tell me that the Klan traded in their sheets for three-piece suits.

Now the police murder of Sean Bell was a tragedy of catastrophic proportions. We see that the white corporate media spew at us the dangers of terrorists, however Black America is faced with everyday reality of state sanctioned terrorism, carried out by the police department. The exoneration of the officers' reckless disregard for human life when they fired 50 shots at three unarmed Black men, killing one of them only gave police throughout Amerikkka the greenlight to kill our people.

We need to return to the grassroots action of the 1960's, but we need to update those tactics for the 21st century. Taking action must mean more than marches and chants of "no justice, no peace." When are we going to start the no peace side of our action(s) because we sure as hell ain't getting no justice. What will it take, when they start gunning down our 7 and 8 year old children? Perhaps police will gun down our infants in their strollers and say they posed a threat lying all snug in their blankets as they sleep away. Look at what they did to Pamela Lawton in Pittsburgh, PA when a police officer put his gun in her 7 year old daughter's face and threaten to blow her head off because she was crying. And charges were brought against Pamela Lawton? But I was not surprised when that happened.

We have no other options but to consider retaliation. They're sure as hell not listening to our protesting. We may as well take actions into our own hands or that will be our grandchildren and great grandchildren, and that's if we can make it that far without being exterminated.
