... Black kids in America are often not seen as harmless boys or girls. In 2018, a National Association of Social Workers' report revealed, "Black youth are approximately 14% of the total youth population, but 47.3% of the youth who are transferred to adult court." The Government Accountability Office found that Black K-12 students are also more likely to be suspended or referred to law enforcement than their white counterparts.
These findings are part of the larger racial disparity that just played out in our nation's capital for the world to see.
The 45th president didn't create the water threatening to sink our democracy, but he punched holes in what was already a leaky, papier-mâché dam.
And as the Capitol riot showed, if you're white or rich, you have access to a canoe, as demonstrated by the domestic terrorists who felt so comfortable in their place in society that they were unafraid to post videos of their actions even as the FBI sought information from the public to make arrests.
If you're white or rich, sometimes you have access to a yacht, which is what former Trump cabinet members are sailing away on right now as if their recent resignations expunge four years of complicity.
The attack on the Capitol was as much about protecting that worldview as it was supporting the president who exploits it -- lest you earnestly believe a Black man can stand on the national stage with zero political experience, two divorces, six bankruptcies and countless women accusing him of sexual assault and still be handed the keys to the country.
The truth is we'll get past this. We always do. But how we look on the other side isn't up to the administration of President-elect Joe Biden. It's up to us.

We are NOT getting past this....the Democrats have started their PUSCH!
He doesn’t want to talk about violent crime statistics i presume? Murder in particular?
est you earnestly believe a Black man can stand on the national stage with zero political experience,
Hey, that sounds like a couple people like Warnock of GA and Zerohissef!
Thanks, Travis. Your memes are the best.
not reading do not care what these propagandist for the Marxist party have to say.
Not buying their gaslighting.
Africa is Africa for a reason, as Europe is Europe for a reason.
Only insane people can constantly ignore reality and expouse this nonsense. More of the black population are in the judicial system because they commit crimes at a higher percentage than other groups.
This dope should be thrilled that a segregationist will be installed in the White House soon; more foreigners taking jobs from blacks, and higher stacks of dead black babies in abortion mills. What a victory! /s
There’s the patriotic right America. And then there’s what’s Left.
Black “boys” are 7% of the population, yet commit over 50% of the violent felonies nationwide. It’s not unreasonable for people to see Black “Boys” as a threat until proven otherwise.
PING
Reagan has been great some times . The last great POTUS till DJT !
Print hese words !
They're not referred to adult court for acing their SATs.
What was that Michael Bloomberg quote, about how like every crime in New York City is perpetrated by minority males aged 16-25?
What percentage of the U.S. population are young black males? What percentage of crimes like theft, armed robbery, homicide, drug dealing, etc. do they commit? You can’t blame people for being subconsciously aware of reality.
And as the Capitol riot showed, if you’re white or rich, you have access to a canoe, as demonstrated by the domestic terrorists who felt so comfortable in their place in society that they were unafraid to post videos of their actions even as the FBI sought information from the public to make arrests.

What about all the Left-wing vandalism and riots (some that included BLM)? Those people felt comfortable taking pictures and videos and posting them.
There ARE “two Americas”.
BLM and ANTIFA - IF they are arrested they are not prosecuted.
Conservatives - IF they are arrested THEY are prosecuted and hounded out of their jobs and their homes.
In fact, the communist-revolutionary, domestic terrorist, Weather Underground openly bragged about bombing the US Capitol AND the Pentagon!

April - May 1971. Notice the North Vietnamese and VietCong flags."
