Hey Yall The Tumblr Messaging System Is Still There Just So You Know
PLEASE DON’T FORGET THE WOMEN!
I’ve noticed a lack of awareness for black female victims of police, so I’ve made a list.
- Tanesha Anderson (37) was slammed against the pavement by police officers. She was apparently disturbing the peace in the neighborhood.
- Duanna Johnson (43) was tortured, then shot in the head by police officers. She was transgender.
- Rekia Boyd (22) was shot in the head by a police officer after someone “threatened” said officer…with a cell phone.
- Aiyana Stanley-Jones (7) was shot in the head while sleeping during a police raid. This was for a reality show, apparently.
- Tarika Wilson (26) and her 14-month old son were shot by police moments after they broke into her house. A companion was suspected of dealing drugs.
- Miriam Carey (34) was killed by police officers while trying to protect her daughter. It was apparently a traffic incident, and she wanted to protect the baby after confronting guns.
- Tyisha Williams (19) was shot 27 times by cops, minutes after her family called 911, worried about her not waking up. She had a flat tire during an evening with her friends and was waiting in a locked car for help.
- Kendra James (21) was shot while trying to flee from a police officer. She was wanted for failing to appear in court.
- Shelley Frey (27) was shot in the neck during a police chase on suspect of shoplifting. The police officer feared for his safety because of the position he was in, even though he could’ve easily shot a tire instead.
- Shereese Francis (30) was suffocated by police and then put into cardiac arrest. She was mentally ill.
- Alesia Thomas (35) was beaten to death during a struggle with a police officer. She’d been arrested because her children were left outside a police station.
- Darnesha Harris (17) was shot several times after crashing into three parked cars and a bystander (who suffered moderate injuries).
- Mackala Ross (13) and her mom Delores Epps (53) were killed in a car by a speeding police officer with no siren.
- Robin Taneisha Williams (21) was killed when a state trooper who was driving drunk crashed into her car.
Some of these women committed crimes, but none of them deserved to be killed. Please remember their names.
All black lives matter.
it takes 460 hours of training to become a cop. it takes 1600 hours of training to cut hair.
Something ain’t right
We literally turned Baltimore City into a police state because the alternative was holding police accountable for killing a man.
@paulmgardner
Let that sink in. Instead of holding cops accountable for killing a man, they allowed it all to fester and get to the point where the National Guard is in the house. Tell me that justice. (via alwaysbewoke)

Police hate to be labeled “bad cops” because of a few bad apples 🤔.
Now you understand how black people feel when y'all make assumptions bout us.

Reblog this if you had to learn cursive writing as a child
If you were ever told or were made to learn cursive writing when you were in grade school.
I wanna see how many of you suffered like I did.
We were told “your teachers in junior high won’t accept work if it’s not in cursive!”
That wasn’t true. We weren’t allowed to turn in work in cursive for a lot of classes.
Yeah I think most American school kids know that you are constantly told “when you get to next grade you’ll have to do it like this” and then that literally never happening ever
^ spiro it’s so true and it’s so fucking sad.
Black guy gets killed by police and they remind us of his past mistakes.
White guy rapes a girl and they inform us of his future potential.
- white people talking about the racism they experienced: i was walking out of walmart and this black girl BUMPED INTO ME and i nicely apologized but she called her 9 black brothers over to BEAT ME UP they called me a SNOWMAN because im WHITE and then these black police officers came and BEAT ME TOO and an alien spaceship full of latinos and asians landed and they called me a cracker and cheered on the blacks! racism against white people IS REAL
