...The letter, called An Open Letter From Ferguson Protestors [sic] and Allies, equates the current situation in Ferguson and the United States with slavery and lynchings.
We are living an American Horror Story, the letter begins.
It continues later (emphasis theirs): Not one group of us has been spared from the bullet or the beating, too many armed only with our Blackness, left to live this American Horror Story. The story has come alive once again in Ferguson.
The authors then go on to assert that whites intentionally disregard the plight of African Americans because they do not want to come to terms with how racist their system of oppression has been. Ours were the bodies, served up as notice to remain humbly and quietly in our place, never to awaken Americas fear of Blackness, the letter explains.
...The letter promises that because there is no "justice," there will be no "peace." It goes further, explaining next (emphasis theirs):
"Even in the face of this terror, we will continue to force the readers and writers of this, a most American of horror stories, to face the blackness that they fear, the blackness they have spent this entire story trying to erase, trying to soften, trying to co-opt, trying to escape."
It then specifically calls white people out as the creators of their oppression, writing, "We will no longer allow you to escape this story and pretend that the epidemic of black lives dying by white hands is merely a figment of an active Black imagination. You must come face to face with the horror that we live daily."

This is just a lousy example of the thing they claim to be protesting.
If getting shot after a suspect-initiated struggle over a policeman’s gun in his car is the worst thing they have to complain about... I’d say they have their problems licked.

The mildest mannered of Pilgrims could not pass up a go these Jive Ass Ghetto Turkeys in their latest attempt to gobble up the goodies that belong to someone else.
Oh, if pushed, I’d “face” that blackness, all right.
It is the blackness in my heart.
Fear allows them control over me
more aptly - I pity they lack the eyes to see they are being held in slavery by the party of slavery through social issues which ensnare them, and eugenics which aborts them at a higher rate than the gen pop
Go ahead and try to “force” me.
Dear Buckwheat,
I do not own this plantation you on.
It’s time FR had a “Like” button.
BAHAHHAHAA
oh man... this is getting good!
best stock up on ammo now if you live near there ... it might be open season soon!
I hear Sierra Leone is nice this time of year!
Horror story? Talk about delusional. America is the greatest country on this earth and if they can’t see that, there is no hope for them. They need to care more about the character of their souls than the color of their skin. Pull themselves up by the bootstraps and get busy improving their own lot in life. It can be done.
They can riot and loot and tear up their own neighborhoods all they want,
but they just better keep it there.
Al $harpton prepares to use his Black Racist card, approved by Holder and Herr Obozo.
Leaders? Is that the best they can do? How about fathers for their children for starters.
They may foment a shooting war if their aggressive talk continues.
Are whites forcing blacks to have kids out of wedlock to the tune of 77% per "family?"
Are whites to blame because a thug subculture works to prevent success-minded young black students from working their way to prosperity?
Are whites to blame for blacks killing each other at an alarming rate nearly every weekend in cities like Chicago?
Are whites to blame because corrupt black democrats' abhorrent mismanagement destroyed great American cities such as Detroit?
"Horror story?" Sure, but of your own making.
Coming to a town near you. This will be national.
All those bars on the windows in the hood aren’t there to keep whitey out.
Seems like a lot of hype to rip off a couple of flat screen TVs
Took me a little bit to understand your pic,
but that’s spot on what’s wrong.
