These murderers have their guns and keep them loaded not out of fear, but out of eagerness: they are actively looking for opportunities to murder Black people (and other marginalized people, such a trans women).
Remember #AhmaudArbery; hell, remember #TrayvonMartin.
"fear" is always the justification after the fact; 'fear' is the impunity ticket.

@jackiegardina Thanks for saying it.
ALEC influential in Prison Industrial Complex, Stand Your Ground and Voter ID laws, deregulation & privatization, gutting environmental & worker protections. They push a con biz agenda over basic human rights and the public interest

#TrayvonMartin was murdered 11 years ago today.
May his memory be a blessing... but he should still be alive today.

During Black History Month we would like to draw your attention to a set of questions that we’ve been reflecting on.

Today Trayvon Martin would have turned 28 yrs old if he hadn't been tragically killed by a vigilante. We remember him today & every day for the profound role he played in our quest for equal justice. Sending prayers to his family as they commemorate him. Ha…

The way #TyreNichols murderers say "and a hoodie" makes me think back to #TrayvonMartin, when I was 13 years old.
I watched the joyous skateboarding montage of #TyreNichols.
He could be your friend, your brother, your kid. In fact he is. So is:
#TrayvonMartin*
#TamirRice*
#GeorgeFloyd
#FreddieGray
#SamDubose
#PhilandoCastile
#TerenceCrutcher
#AltonSterling
#JamarClark

#WilliamChapman II
#WalterScott
#EricHarris
#AkaiGurley
#MichaelBrown
#EricGarner

Nah. Fuck the blue. Cops are racist bullies who took the job so they can continue terrorizing people they don’t like with the protection of the law behind them. It’s clear from what happened to #GeorgeFloyd #trayvonmartin and now #TyreNichols that they’re the modern equivilant of the KKK just with a uniform and badge instead of the white robes. Defund the fucking police and put that money into solving homelessness. You reduce crime most efficiently by meeting people’s material and mental needs.

When I joined I didn't do an #Introduction. Been on the bird site since shortly after it opened but rarely posted. Given where I worked it felt dangerous to be publicly known. Will say the following: recently retired from teaching law. Taught Crim law, Crim Pro, White Collar Crime, Int'l Crim Law, Crime & Technology and Critical Race Theory.
Have done press re: #TrayvonMartin, #BreonnaTaylor and police sexual assault #CRT Co-host Nubian Tigers Podcast

In der #ARTE-#Mediathek ist jetzt die #Doku "Der schwarze Aufstand" über Entstehung & Geschichte von #BlackLivesMatter (#BLM) zu finden. Analysiert wird nicht nur der systemische #Rassismus in den #USA, sondern auch jener in #Europa, speziell in #Deutschland & #Frankreich - eingebettet in die jeweilige #Kolonialgeschichte.
