None is crying out for justice."

Tell me who are the criminals."

I need equal rights... and justice."

“Me & the owner of this company are not seeing eye to eye Mama… But if anything happen to me, he’s responsible for it… I’m too smart Mama, he got these guys wanting to kill me.”

"We cannot ignore what happened to Rasheem, allowing would-be perpetrators of #hatecrimes to become further emboldened. In the words of Attorney Ben Crump, 'This was a nefarious act. This was an evil act. Somebody murdered #rasheemcarter & we cannot let them get away with this.'”

"NO IFS, NO BUTS: THIS WAS A MISSISSIPPI LYNCHING IN 2022"
"The 2022 murder of Rasheem Ryelle Carter, 25, in rural Mississippi, is one of the ugliest, most sadistic, nauseating crimes that has been reported in the 21st century. Indeed, the sheer barbarity of what happened to Carter seems like it belongs in another era, but it happened a mere seven months ago."

INVESTIGATE THE DEATH OF RASHEEM CARTER AS A FEDERAL CASE

Rasheem was a hardworking and enterprising young man. At the time of his death, he was on a temporary contract in Taylorsville MS, trying to earn enough money to get his restaurant business up and running again.

PLEASE SIGN/SHARE AND DEMAND JUSTICE FOR RASHEEM.

I just came across this deeply biased coverage of the #RasheemCarter case. The news anchor appears to be siding with the individual that Rasheem's mother identified as the employer who was harassing Rasheem. Incredibly, this person's attorney is Mark O'Mara, the attorney who defended George Zimmerman.

ATTORNEY CRUMP: "KEEP RASHEEM'S NAME ALIVE AND DEMAND JUSTICE!"

"The circumstances surrounding #RasheemCarter’s death do NOT add up! How does a man notify his mother and police that he’s in danger before his disappearance, is found deceased with his head severed, and police suspect no foul play! Keep Rasheem’s name alive and demand justice!"

If/when the #RasheemCarter story gets the coverage it deserves, it could be bigger than #GeorgeFloyd 1) This case is even more gruesome & 2) is a grim reminder that lynching never ended, as illustrated here:

The family's attorney, Ben Crump, told reporters this week that an independent autopsy revealed that Rasheem's head was "severed" from his body and that his vertebrae and spinal cord were found in a different location. #BLM #HateCrimes

The Sheriff of Mississippi, his words without fail
Said foul play was not a thought in Rasheem Carter's tale
But when public outcry ensued, he then had to concede
That a murder investigation is the path he should heed

THE WASHINGTON POST:
"Lynchings in Mississippi never stopped"

In the wake of the #RasheemCarter case finally getting some media coverage, I did a google search on the topic and came across this article which illustrates that contrary to popular belief, Jim Crow never really ended:

https://washingtonpost.com/nation/2021/08/08/modern-day-mississippi-lynchings/

P.S. This continues to happen throughout the US - not just the South.

A young Black man told his mom he was being followed by white men in three pickup trucks — then his family says he was found "dismembered."

Rasheem Carter’s family believes police in Taylorsville, Mississippi, are hiding details about his death.

“Rasheem Carter, 25, was reported missing Oct2 after his mother said he had sought help from police & frantically called her to say white men in 3 trucks were pursuing him. That was the last day Carter's family heard from him.

“On Nov2, authorities said they found his remains in a wooded area south of #Taylorsville MS.” But “the #SmithCo Sheriff’s Dept said it had ‘no reason to believe foul play was involved’ though the case was under investigation.”

#RasheemCarter #mississippi

A Black man disappeared last year after telling his mother that men were chasing him and yelling slurs. A month later, Rasheem Carter was found reportedly decapitated. His family wants answers.
