PLEASE READ: this is a thread of more issues that the current black lives matter brings to light!!!! THESE ARE MORE REASONS TO CONTINUE FIGHTING THE CURRENT ADMINISTRATION AND THE SYSTEMATIC RACISM THAT TOUCHES ALL PARTS OF LIFE, NOT JUST LAW ENFORCEMENT!!!!!!
the corrupt system of monetary bail bonds and how it only fuels the fire of our broken prison system
WE NEED MORE ATTENTION ON PRISON REFORM!!! STOP MASS INCARCERATIONS!!!!!!
ICE and it’s racist agenda of separating families and leaving children alone in detention centers as they deport family members. BEING ANTI COP IS BEING ANTI ICE!! POC ARE BEING THREATENED BY ICE EVERY DAY!!!!
the fact that supplies from the covid-19 pandemic are being prioritized to white/affluent communities and in turn, increasingly more minority communities are negatively affected and unable to be cared for properly due to lack of health services.
the overspending on the national military and defense funds rather than services like health care, social security or CUTTING THE COST OF VITAL MEDICATION MAYBE ????? the military also abuses its power and uniform just like cops do.
TW/ rape: SOME COPS ARE LEGALLY ALLOWED TO RAPE PEOPLE UNDER CUSTODY???? WE NEED TO PASS LEGISLATION THAT ABOLISHES THIS DISGUSTING LOOPHOLE.
TW/ rape and sexual assault: women but more specifically women of COLOR are constantly gaslighted and their protests for change swept under the rug when coming forward with rape and sexual assailant allegations. ESP WHEN THOSE REPORTS ARE AGAINST PEOPLE IN INFUENTIAL SEATS IN +
+ SOCIETY INCLUDING POLITICIANS AND CELEBRITIES. our justice system would rather save its own ass than properly convict rapists and pedophiles, leaving women of color to fall deeper into a system to RACIAL INJUSTICE!!!!
our broken voting system and the continuous voter fraud/lack of voter turn out that we end up seeing in marginalized minority communities due to lack of resources but more importantly EDUCATION!!!!!!
!!!!!!! this thread is not meant to undermine the black lives matter movement but to give you guys all the more reason to stand up against a system that refuses to hold itself accountable for its racist and mysoginisyic actions !!!!!!!
