“Everything that is so shiny about Santa Monica is now being destroyed in front of everyone’s eyes,” said Jessica Walker, a Santa Monica High School graduate who is now pursuing a master’s degree in child development. She stood in an alley near the promenade that was littered with shoeboxes and water from a broken main as looters spilled out of a shattered store window.

“It’s a rude awakening for Santa Monica natives,” she said, adding that, “with all the pain and suffering Black people have gone through, the looting and damage doesn’t compare.”

Good, make rich people uncomfortable.

Trading one prison system for another is not going to fix the system. We need change throughout.

Make no mistake. There will be the same kind of racial bias over who gets institutionalized and who doesn’t. Over what treatment is given and when they get out.

We need to be aware of how the whole system ties together. Otherwise it’s just empty gesture making.

“ The action came hours after OSF announced the nurse was suspended after she allegedly said on social media that protesters “make great hood ornaments.”

The Facebook post appeared to refer to those who have been protesting the police-involved death last week of George Floyd, an African-American man in Minneapolis.”

How ignorant do you have to be not to realise that something like this will result in the loss of your job? I don’t get it. Obviously her casual endorsement of vehicular homicide is the bigger problem but, I mean, come on

Incredibly. But it still amazes me that so many racists dont realize they are racist.

This is the third time in the last week that they have tried to hijack something for their toxic beliefs. Today was D-Day (which is why they went to the cenotaph) a few days ago it was the anniversary of the London Bridge attacks and before that they tried to use Lee Rigby against BLM UK (Lyn Rigby has taken them to court over using his name before), but not actually on the anniversary of his murder.
