All that needs to be said. The rest of that is irrelevant. Even she admitted that she was wrong so yall cats can take the cape off acting like she wasn't wrong. fukk all that "bu bu she was just scared" bullshyt. She was wrong, and she if she acknowledged and actually did some good parenting after the fact then thay would be good, but I don't even by the "I lost it" shyt. That was some over the top grandstanding shyt. Dude was running away, she was literally chasing him knowing a crowd was watching. Ima let yall have it tho.
I watched the interview as well. She had no control over who was taping her, so how some can claim she was showboating for the cameras is beyond me. She had told her son to go home after school because she knew the atmosphere would be tense. She admitted she went overboard and he admitted he shouldn't have been there.I seen her interview on CNN and she admitted she lost it,said she was not there to be recorded and just wanted to get her son who she told not to go out there in the first place....she got caught up in the moment same way he did....the boy himself said she took em home and explained she only did it because she cared even though he was embarrassed at first...maybe she stopped him from doing something he might regret depending on how that brick landed....and judging from they interview she knows him better than people in this thread,and he knows her.
Im not gon hold her responsible for people recording her....Maybe they wouldnt have to do these interviews if people wasnt recording and passing judgement on both of them,based on something that really is between the two of them..
isnt being spun into sumthing else by some media outlets and cacs?sure but yall act like wont do that regardless,him throwing a brick on film wouldnt have stopped the spinnage....plenty of folks left to throw bricks thats really about that life.
....He left the house against her wishes becuz he felt strongly he needed to be down there....But he didnt throw that brick because he didnt feel strongly about throwing that brick....If he did he wouldve threw it while his mama watched
...For those who regret it,i still salute but they learned a valuable lesson...next time theyll think it through and theyll throw it again or they wont.
My Brother, many things things did change as a result of the protests in the 50's and 60's. As a result of lunch counter sit ins, freedom riders and marches, bus boycotts, voter registration drives, school children and adults that segregated schools and universities-we made great strides as a people in getting legislation on the books to end legalized discrimination, ensure voting rights, and improve housing and job opportunities.
You didn't say anything, my sister. Nothing has really changed. Whites have walked back or nullified any so called gains from the civil rights movement. Our schools and neighborhoods are still basically segregated while blacks still face legalized discrimination in every aspect of society. We can say that things haven't changed because we're facing the same problems that we had 50 years. All that "we've made got strides" shyt is white racist rhetoric. We can't afford to perpetuate that lie amongst ourselves because it only serves to keep the masses of black people asleep. That's the problem, too many blacks are walking around living in this fantasy world where things have gotten better. No things haven't gotten better. In fact in a lot of ways things are worse. Black unity is at an all time low while c00ning/selling out is at an all time high.
