Ita! No matter how JBs death came to be he was given recognition, often competely ignored, of what many AA men are facing on a day to day basis in their own communities everywhere.
To solve any grave issue, they first must be given national attention putting a much needed spotlight on them first.
We must find out the root causes of why so many AAs are either likely to be in jail or prison or WHY thousands every single year are murdered by men of their own race with thousand more AA men who have attempted to murder them.
The gravest danger they face every day is being murdered by others who are also AA, and of the same gender. It's an monumental epidemic that most don't want to even talk about. Imo. Even by many of those in ipowerful positions who could help resolve them if they would address them. It's happening right in their own cities.
It pains me greatly how most seem to dwell on only AAs who have been killed by polie officers of all races.
Especially when purposefully, imo, ignoring the statistic that most all of them were ruled to be justifiable by outside investigators or the DOJ.
Instead they are all put into the same category implying all were unjustifiable which is as far from the truth as it can get.
Until people are willing to be truthful putting out all of the facts... no grave plight will really be resolved within the AA communities.
In fact approximately one thousand per year are shot, and killed each year by police officers in a country of over 330+ million population, with the vast overwhelming majority of those who are shot, and killed are whites along with other races like Hispanic or Asian. Etc.
Just perpetrating the same old myth... meant to deceive has never, and will never resolve any root cause.
It only makes it worse because so many now seem way too willing to accept anything as true instead of wanting the facts.
Imo, In truth if Josh Brown hadn't testified in AGs trial he wouldn't have his own dedicated thread nor would anyone have even known his name.
I'm sure you've already noticed how his thread has dropped in posts once it became known who murdered him, and why.
I have long said here I am a staunch advocate in justice for all. I've never wavered nor will I ever.
It does everyone who has been murdered, and their families a grave injustice when anyone feels only justice is warranted IF they are targeted or chosen as worthy depending on WHO they are.
To believe in justice for all it must include EVERYONE. If not, it's simply hollow meaningless words.
I have no doubt JB was loved, and has left his family in tears of sadness over losing him.
