The Police Culture
Neither of those five brothers, realize the depth of their devastating travesty of tragedy, which is the evolution of the self-destructive malaise pervading Black culture and life, especially so of late vis-a-vis the rapper and the basketball player.
The late Malcolm Shabazz, the grandson of Malcolm X, had it correct: first the character assassination, then the physical assassination. Prominent Blacks, some star-studded, "felt so-free that they could join in maligning another brother, for the plantation's masters".
It is no surprise, with all the black-on-black death, that five fully indoctrinated Black police Men would beat another Black Man to death "under-the-color-of-law".
Who do you think had the whip in hand for massa, on the plantation. Or, who tossed the dead black bodies in the ocean, in the transatlantic voyage, or who helped trap the Africans on the Continent? We are doing the biddings of those whose indoctrination is in our bloodline. Fully assimilated.
Of All Places Memphis. Why Memphis? The last place the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. 'stood his ground', which actually was Our ground. There, for the garbage workers, the poor, 'the po', the pawns, the Negroes then; of which Mrs. Coretta Scott King four days after Dr. King's assassination, led a March in the very Memphis.
The problem is we have lost our way in a society, whose design is self-effacing, implosive and all consuming. Conversation has already begun on a 'George Floyd Act' type congressional legislation. A pipe dream, with current legislative hierachy.
Consider the situation in Louisiana, where white Louisiana troopers, similarly beat a black man to death in 2019.
Troopers have only recently been indicted on man-slaughter charges and obstruction.
In another incident a now former municipal police officer was convicted after video footage showed him kicking a suspect in the head. It is policing culture that is the problem.
