    WTF? I never heard of this. That's some crazy ass ? .

    alot of ? they wanna hide from the public

    ? , this might be one we want to forget. Going by the hearings, this seems like a case where the whites were like "They're your people, you ? handle this" and the blacks in power decided dropping a bomb in a black neighborhood was a good idea. Not Black Excellence. Black Incompetence.

    I read about this when I was a kid but didn't look into in detail again until now.

    Beyond the lives lost, I feel sorry for the neighbors....the mayor neglected the neighbors concerns until the neighbors went over the mayors head to the governor....then the police bombed one house to "protect" the neighborhood.....and let fire from the bomb burn until it burned down the whole damn neighborhood the process.

    Top to bottom dysfunction in city government.

    This is a prime example of how radical groups get created (if the neighbors went that way)...

    Don't be that guy. We come to the IC to clown and laugh, but I get a lot of game/news here as well.

    I'm just only hearing about this.

    SMH at most of y'all just now hearing about this. That's why y'all be sounding all "we are the world" when the people in the know try to explain to you that black people will never be able to truly thrive in this country.

    When push comes to shove, Amerikkka will do exactly what they did to this group: have the media paint you as a terrorist organization, and bomb the ? out of the men, women and children, with no ? given.

    You are living behind enemy lines, and the only way to get out of this predicament is to move in silence, and work towards gaining dual citizenship with a country in the mother land. We need a "3rd party" backing us politically, socially and financially, if we want to hold Amerikkka accountable for her continued atrocities.

    Crazy.

    I'll never forgive white people for the numerous atrocities they've committed upon melanated people.

    When we stand up to salute that flag, we're tacitly acknowledging our subjugation.

    "? 's salute the ? ? , and ? pledge allegiance to the flag that accosted ya."

    True, but new ? didn't even know about BWS until the last couple years. There's hundreds of events that are forgotten, or scrubbed from history. A big reason why people need to support black documentary makers, because they the only ones who will touch these topics.

    Yes its better for you bc blacks put in work to make it so....and telling us to stop fighting for equality is some slave thinking

    Because we allow it happen. It went from advancing our people, to advancing all minorities, and all that did was put us last again.

    Historically, it's like black people opened up a door...all the other "minorities" trampled black people to get through the door....then turned around and said "look at your black ass over there on the floor....all ? and ? up.......the ? wrong with you....who let u in anyway?".

    this is why i say black first .....

    black christians get ? on by other christians
    black muslims get ? on by other muslims

    yet alot black people still try to be apart of anything and everything without being black first....like anything else matters
