I thought she died and confessed she was lying?
Anyways this is some stupid tit-for-tat shyt. I'm glad he was deported, no matter how long it took. The "what about us" argument is valid is most instances, but here it is not. If I stand for justice I'm going to applaud, not condemn, and that doesnt mean I put anyone's justice over my own.
Rigetheousness is fulltime, not sometime.
‘Where Is Justice For Emmett Till?’ People Still Want Carolyn Bryant To Answer For Lynching
article as of 2019 she was still living and being fancy free
I agree it should be equal and until it is we have to point it out whenever & wherever, we're often told to let bygones be bygones and forgive while they will retrace 70 year old cases to find and condemn.
I'll always be a what-if/what-about nikka until things are evenly dispersed, right now we have other groups clamoring for justice for incidents that occurred decades ago while telling us we need to forgive shyt that's weeks old.
Me calling out hypocrisy in our system should not be akin to going tit-for-tat, never did I state he shouldn't be punished I just want that same justice for my group, his mother never got to see justice when she buried her son.
let's put it in perspective since we're mentioning justice, after 120 years and 200 failed bills with a reported 4,742 lives taken between 1882 to 1968 the house of reps voted to pass the Emmett Till Anti-Lynching Act making lynching a federal crime
, a nothingburger essentially as Emment wasn't lynched and crimes against blacks continued long after lynching ended; Till was made to carry a 75 lb. cotton-gin fan to the bank of the Tallahatchie River. They beat him (naked) nearly to death, gouged out his eye, shot him in the head and then threw his body, tied to the cotton-gin fan with barbed wire, into the river. He was not lynched.
They threw us a meaningless law hundreds of years later while letting the accuser live out her life and write books
let's fast forward to current justice
You should already know this man if not to make a long story short he killed no officers the shooters admitted to this as well as surviving officers, and yet he was executed as if he did murder someone this is a lynching by modern standards. I'll post a snippet of the actual guilty parties statement "Nathaniel Woods is 100% innocent," Spencer, who remains on death row, wrote in an open letter. "
I know that to be a fact because I'm the person that shot and killed all three of the officers that Nathaniel was subsequently charged and convicted of murdering. Nathaniel Woods doesn't even deserve to be incarcerated, much less executed."
whereas we have the 1963 church bombing
their killer is alive and up for parole 2021. . .
tit-for-tat my brother, justice and equality for all my brother.
