I dont live in the USA Im not american, but here in brazil we live the same reality were cops are ALWAYS CONSTANTLY killing black people and for no reason. They killed black people because they were holding umbrellas and the cops “mistakenly” thought it was a gun, for example

they killed a group of young men in a car that were out celebrating their friend first paycheck and were mistakenly killed by the cops who thought they were fugitives on the run... they were not

they arrested a black men here in brazil for carrying a cleaning product on his backpack during a protest, cops arrested him because they said the product was inflamable and therefore its purpose was to create bombs the men was gonna use in the protests. bullshit of course

so the #BlackLivesMatter hits home, even if i’m white, it hits home whenever I see my black friends get scared of the police brutality in my country. I don’t have to be black myself to support this cause and to ask for justice, nor do I have to be an american for it.

let’s rase awareness and let’s support the cause by listening to what black people, the victims and the victims family and friends have to say about police brutality. let’s hear their voices, their screams.

and to prove what I talked about police brutality in Brazil towards the black and poor here are some screenshots: “cops mistake umbrella for gun and kills waiter in Rio de Janeiro”

“arrested with ‘Pinho Sol’ (a cleaning product) during protests in 2013” “Rafael Braga, black, carrying ‘pinho sol’ arrested and convicted in 11 years in prison”

“police shoots more than 100 times in a car killing young men” “5 young men killed, 111 shots”

I said all that just to tell that, FUCK THEM POLICE AND THEIR BRUTALITY! fuck them. their job was supposed to be protecting the people but instead what they do is kill the people they should be protecting. so fuck them and their bullshit!

AND YES IF A COP DOES SOMETHING WRONG LETS HOLD HIM ACCOUNTABLE! IF THEY ALL DO WRONG LETS HOLD THEM ALL ACCOUNTABLE!

and if you’re a cop and you stay silent just watching as other cops commit crimes and do wrong to the people they should be protecting, you’re just as much of an accomplice and therefore should be held accountable too.

I rest my case.
