How Many Must Die?


Well, the verdict is in. The three NYPD officers who shot and killed Sean Bell have been acquitted on all charges. 3 Cops, 50 shots, 2 wounded, 1 dead. I'm numb right now, overwhelmed by too many emotions too write them down. I mean, how many black men do the cops have to kill before somebody goes to jail, before "justice is served?" 100, 1,000? Nobody should ever wonder why cops make black men nervous.

I feel you on this in every way
Yesterday on 14th and Columbia in DC
I saw the cops sit 10 black men on the sidewalk and it's was about 20 cops surrounding them, things like that make me so angry! I just rolled my eyes and walked away.
Waking up to seeing the Sean Bell's case made me realize I need to keep moving towards my purpose of educating the future. I'm going to teach that cop that won't shot the next black man.
