Recent events in the USA have enraged and numbed us. Yet another black man murdered by the police.
We found some solace in these powerful words from Killer Mike. Specifically this rallying cry…
Plot.
Plan.
Strategise.
Organise.
Mobilise.
“So, I’m duty bound to be here to simply say that it is your duty not to burn your own house down for anger with an enemy. It is your duty to fortify your own house so that you may be a house of refuge in times of organization. Now is the time to plot, plan, strategize, organize, and mobilize. It is time to beat up prosecutors you don’t like at the voting booth. It is time to hold mayoral offices accountable, chiefs and deputy chiefs.”
And this demands some of your time.
“In a racist society, it is not enough to be non-racist, we must be anti-racist”
It is clear.
White people can no longer be silent.
Take action. Do something. Speak out. Show solidarity. Anything.
Don’t make this the time you do nothing.
