“I’ve never in my life time seen so many young people dying and I want to know why.“
I was in Canarsie cemetery in Brooklyn NY yesterday. A stroll along the road fronting the newest sections will convince you that black people just don’t live real long. It was absolutely shocking and I’ve been working a hundred some-odd cemeteries in the NY Metro for forty years. Canarsie seems to be burying well over ninety percent Black. 99 percent by what I saw yesterday.
“Canarsie seems to be burying well over ninety percent Black. 99 percent by what I saw yesterday.”
As I said, I want to know “why?”
You would think that local black leaders in these communities would be asking this question as well. I know that the narrative of “minorities hardest hit” has basically become a meme, but this is one situation in which researchers and investigative news reporters SHOULD be looking into why there seems to be so many young black people dying each day.
Is it an increase in fentanyl-tainted drugs in those communities? However, young white people do those drugs as well. Do predominately white areas receive a better quality drug from the cartels with the most harmful going to black communities? Are certain segments in towns being targeted?
Or, are those who are dying the young people who have faithfully gone to the local clinic for each vaccination and booster as encouraged by their trusted medical community? One of the most egregious actions of medical clinics a couple years ago were giving out gift cards for getting vaccinated and promising more gift cards should patients return for all the recommended “boosters”. For some of these people, a $25 or $50 dollar gift card makes the difference in whether or not they eat that day, or for the addicted, whether or not they get their “fix”.
