    Black people been saying. everyone else just refuses to listen

    (except for native americans, they been saying it the longest, they just don’t have the presence of messaging because they’ve been pushed so far into the margins)

      Yeah I’m Aussie, and as soon as I learned about the Philly police firebombing a black neighbourhood, I knew you guys were supremely fucked.

      And yeah Native Americans called it. I’ve learned that how a government and society treats a minority, is how they can eventually treat everyone. Or put another way, any rights you think you have over the member of society with the least rights is illusory.

        yup. a society is only as just as it treats its most marginalized member. everyone else is just on a waiting list
