MUST READ!
There’s a big difference between the boots-on-the-ground work of #BlackLivesMatter Grassroots v. the entity that was hijacked by a band of thieves who use the movement’s dollars to enrich themselves and misrepresent who we are.
Setting this right here and pinning.
Black Lives Matter Grassroots IS #BlackLivesMatter !

Mississippi just said a cop was justified in killing 1-year-old Kohen Wiley, and that no one will be held accountable in the suspicious death of 18-year-old Nolan Wells.
Prince Williams, an organizer with @pslnational draws a line from these deaths to "decades of racist policing, mass incarceration, and the War on Black America."

The Mississippi Attorney General’s Office announced it found an officer’s use of force was justified in the fatal shooting of 1-year-old Kohen Wiley. How can anyone accept that conclusion when Kohen’s family and the public still have not been allowed to see the body-camera footage?
This is a department whose chief was fired after reports of racial slurs in his text messages, and whose officer faced a complaint alleging a racially offensive remark two days before he shot Kohen. If the footage supports the state’s decision, release it. We will not stop fighting until this family gets the truth. abcnews.com/US/wireStory/mis…

In the last weeks, the system let the cops who killed Senior Airman #RogerFortson and #JaylenLewis walk free. And refused to prosecute in the killing of #NolanWells.
And there are more...
How do we muster the will to fight?

“Honors” aren’t honors if you paid for them. We’d tag @Cicley_Gay and @Blklivesmatter but they blocked us.

Since this writing, disasters levied upon Black communities continue to pile up. #Memphis is suffering power outages as Elon’s toxic data center drains the grid and the water supply.

Our Gary chapter is responding to the blackout - now in its 11th day. They urgently need funds for ice, groceries, gas cards, and generators for thousands of Black families without power. You can donate on Zelle or PayPal at [email protected] or at blmgrassroots.org.

The Mississippi Legislative Black Caucus is demanding more transparency in the investigation into 1-year-old Kohen Wiley’s death, saying his family deserves answers nearly two months after he was fatally shot by Senatobia police.
