Those of you who laud @sarahforpdx’s stance on the racist police should listen to this, from April, where she couldn’t think of ONE example of the police being racist. #quanicehayes #lloydstevenson there’s two

I get that it’s a new thing for people to be anti-police. But the Portland Police Bureau’s racist behavior is not new. 40% were KKK members in the 1940s. In the 1980s, they were picking up skinheads from downtown and saying, “we got your back.”
NOTHING has changed. The police have been collaborating with the Proud Boys and Patriot Prayer for years. It’s not new. It’s not secret.
