Before y’all tell Black women to just buy guns to defend themselves, please realize how many Black women are in prison for self defense.
Anyways, why is it always what we should to protect ourselves? Not how can we make society safer for Black women? Not how you as a man, can hold other men accountable? Or do something when you see women being harassed?
Chrystul Kizer is waiting trial now for killing her abuser. Marissa Alexander was in prison for firing a warning shot at her abusive husband. Not to mention, y’all were saying a child deserved to die for trying to defend herself.
Y’all even said Cyntoia Brown, a victim of child sex trafficking, deserved to be in prison for killing a john because she felt her life was in danger.
