You know, the Black woman who actually prosecuted that man, and got a conviction. Surely, we will see a huge mobilization in the streets. Right?

For most of upstate New York, it seems, Letitia James' indictment wasn't front-page news. It didn't make page one in Rochester, Syracuse and a bunch of smaller papers. The Buffalo News put it below the fold. Utica's paper (where I worked) led with a story about her office annoucing drug charges.

Yep & anything white folk are involved in usually gets sabotaged bc their white supremacy bs comes out in diff ways. So im good. They can figure it out for themselves

I’ll join economic boycotts like target one that BP tell me to join but the children of the chalk can figure it out themselves

They’ve kicked off at least a half dozen branded “movements,” meanwhile the only thing that’s had legs is our lil Target boycott.

Telling Black people we’ll be “next” if we don’t join whatever half-cocked movement you’ve cooked up this week, only reveals how much YOU don’t understand that we are PERPETUALLY on the firing line of white supremacy.

If they had cared when it was happening to *just* us, they wouldn’t be suffering now. The demands for empathy that they STILL don’t reciprocate is crazy. But, here we are.
