and water is wet. We have been historically subject to murder and persecution, violence and discrimination. Yes, we are outraged. Now what's your point and what are the solutions? it's easy to pull wiki info.. how do we apply that into practice to be able to act on the collective outrage? How do we stop and prevent the victimization? That's what is needed.

Everyone knows what the solution is, but they're too afraid to say it/do it. There are two solutions. One if a half-measure. The other, a full-stroke.

1) Half-Measure

2) Full-Stroke

I think about this all the time. These mass shootings ain’t shyt compared to what our ancestors went through.


Mass killings are not new and have been way worse in the past. The only thing that is new is the weapon choice :coffee:

When someone in the American news media called the Orlando nightclub shooting the biggest massacre in US history, I just had to :mjlol:

They killed more black people at Tulsa, Oklahoma. Which isn't on this list because we have no idea how many people were shot, stabbed or bombed from the air during that massacre.

A 'half-measure in Brasil'

The favela enters politics: Brazil's first "Black political party"

Frente Favela: Brazil’s first black political party

Celso Athayde doesn’t expect many people will show up, on a Tuesday evening in Madureira, a suburb in Rio’s North Zone. Maybe 200 people will come, he estimates – they haven’t advertised this, anyone who’s here was personally invited by someone who knew what was happening, and believed in the idea’s potential.

Athayde is an entrepreneur and favela activist, who has quietly been creating social change for two decades with Central Única das Favelas (CUFA), a network of NGOs working in urban areas across Brazil to engage youth in music, sports, and the arts. But for the last three years, Athayde’s mission has been trying to grow Frente Favela Brasil, a political party which he and its creators hope will make the face of Brazilian politics more representative of the country’s population.
