Teach history.

On May 13, 1985, over 500 Philly police fired over 10,000 rounds into dozens of Black homes.

Then, cops bombed the larger block—using explosives including C4 explosives provided by FBI.

Only 2 survived—one of whom was later jailed for 7 yrs on bs charges.

No police were charged.

Please get familiar with her work. Anti-imperialist and anti-colonialist. Her politics were shaped by the Black Power movement and Pan-Africanism, friends with Angela Davis and Alice Walker.
