This systemic injustice is a legacy of a moral malfunction that's been with us since our earliest days. It should not be normalized. It should be confronted.
New California data on police stops: •Black youth ages 15-17 searched at six times the rate of white teenagers •Black youth ages 10-17 handcuffed/detained at higher rate than all other groups •Police use force twice as often against Black residents theguardian.com/us-news/2023…

Thats a half story. We don't know the calls that come in to the police station.
They’re searched at only 6x the rate, but commit about 50x the amount of crime. Every time I’ve looked into “racial imbalance” in criminal justice statistics, they’re always *underrepresented* in every metric when the amount of crime committed is taken into account.

Only one way to fix it, abolish the police and other forms of unnatural hierarchy:

Create local community civil defense force, create local #DirectDemocracy, create alternative economy based on barter, gifting and sharing. That is how we take back our planet.

What are you talking about??? If it has been with you from the earliest days, and has not been changed or confronted, then it's already "normalized". Aren't you paying attention?

FIFY: the systemic RACISM ...

I love the way that you explain the case for Reparations! I hate the way that you've defended RussiaGate. Now RussiaGate is being used to attack Reparations. Which side are you on? Please comment on this case. FBI Indictments Imminent - Fight Back! youtube.com/P3NdTMvC80M
