You might see some very different viewpoints amplified through this channel.

Please keep in mind that our admin team is very diverse and have very different opinions on matters. We also take in posts from @BLMProtestsBot from you users that can have different opinions and takes from the rest of the admin team.

If you find a specific post as, well, too spicy, please keep in mind that no one has ill intent.

We've all agreed on the basics that something needs to change. How that change is going to be is different for each person.

I hope all of the protesters, all of you subscribers, and all of the amazing admins who have made the coverage of this possible possible stay safe in the upcoming weeks.

United we stand, divided we fall.

🖤 Solidarity and ACAB

Fuck The Police

https://www.bop.gov/locations/institutions/set/SET_aohandbook.pdf This is fucking disgusting.

Strikes are officially illegal in prisons.

You are literally a slave. You can't refuse to work.

Sets up the stage for victim blaming. It's your fault if you get sexually assaulted apparently. Just gotta be more confident I suppose.

This is what you're paid.

All cops are bastards. Prison guards too.

Do you know why they are making it illegal to strike in prison? Because prisoners make all of our prepackaged food. If the prisoners strike, nobody makes the food. A prison strike is a hunger strike. If the prisoners were freed there would be nobody to make the food. Heinz would be forced to hire again in Pittsburgh, and Campbell's Soup would be made in Camden by workers paid a minimum wage. That is not what the system wants. What makes it even worse is Joe Biden helped build this system in congress.

Please share with your friends on the ground! As Facebook's recent actions have shown, we cannot rely on the communications platforms controlled by the establishment.

[23] Opinions on how to avoid future disturbances varied between white people and black people. For the white inner city respondents, 51% wanted to give police more power so suspicious people on streets would be stopped and get searched.[23] Of the inner city Black respondents, 84% favored a proposal that would reduce racial disparity and provide more jobs for black people.

"He's (the white man) out there marching up and down with his guns. Why can't we march up and down with our guns? ... We went before (Mayor) Maier and we argued and argued and argued and argued and argued and it didn't do no good..."
