It got way out of control in MPLS. Example of small Somali restaurant that got completely destroyed in the second night here:

Exactly. Black women need to grasp that the majority of Black men call out this type of behavior. Hell, I see it on my Facebook timeline.
Majority I don’t know, but the complaints from BW are legitimate. I disagree that BM mirror BW energy when it comes to addressing White women/nonBW as opposed to white male /nonBM racism. That’s not a debate that you are going to win with me.

and I’dargue that more BM are seeing that BW are fed up by it and are not longer just talking and acting. The millennial/ gen Z BW aren’t like their predecessors. That being said I can acknowledge that I have seen an uptick of BM calling this bad behavior genuinely. We shall if this will sustain and blossom into more understanding between the sexes or a flash in the pan and these men being reduced to be called simps.

I first got on the coli maybe 10 years ago and I had such a different mindset. Such naivety fueled by being so defensive about blacks always attacking Dominicans over issues of self identification. While my views on the whole Dominican blackness thing have not really changed, my eyes have been thrown the fukk open in the last few years about the shyt ya go through.

So I just want to apologize here and now for anybody that ever felt like I didn't care about black people or your issues. I was blind to many of them. I haven't posted here in a long time but I do check in here and there and I just haven't felt like my voice or opinion wasn't worth sharing because I am ashamed of my previous lack of awareness.

I didn't start feeling like this over George Floyd, it happened way before, but this case has just shaken me up for ya. The image of the cop with his knee on his neck while he pleads for help is burned into my mind and fukk me for ever doubting the unfairness you guys get treated with.

I'm not saying it for daps or rep, I'm saying it because i need to say it. I'm sorry, and I stand with ya. This is disgusting and revolution needs to happen to change things because these a$$hole pieces of shyt in charge are never ever going to give in and equalize the playing field because it requires giving something up. They don't love ya, or us. They want a white country with people of color working for them and dying for them. This shyt is not right and I promise to always stand with ya and teach my daughter and any future children about how things truly are so they never share my blindness.

I like cacs being involved...

With just nikkas involved there's scapegoats and blame. Cacs involved opens a whole new can.

Is this not why they created racism and classism in America? To keep whites and blacks from uniting...

but that’s exactly what’s going on...this is still largely considered a BLM riot, even though half the crowd, maybe more are white people.

at the end of the day everything that happens will be on us. Those white people will go back to their normal lives and we will be seen as the barbarians who wrecked the city to steal clothes and shyt

The looting can be correlated to the current financial crisis...

Lot of folk out of work with no income...
Partly, but I think it’s very clear anarchist types are taking part and their aim is to destroy all manners of business and property. I think people are going to wake up to realize this was more damaging to small business than it was to wealthy white people and corporations. At least in MPLS, it is playing out that way.
