So true, it's very important to understand that by remaining neutral people are only contributing to the problem without even realizing it. This was a beautiful video to match a beautiful poem, it gave me goosebumps aha Thanks for sharing this

agreed

I'm Nicole Self growth motivates me The world is my canvas and I will paint a masterpiece, starting by erasing the errors of the past and in their place creating a beautiful solution. I have decided to make it my life's purpose to help others and I will accomplish this any way I can. I'm aiming for becoming a politician or bioengineer, though. I have some big ideas in those fields. This is my dream because day by day my ego is diminishing, and soon I will face ego death. After searching inward for so long I realized I must search outward as well, and that is when I became so deeply passionate about helping others. yo on a side note though this helped me organize my thoughts, thanks juanisimo

"You’re right, we should totally ignore peoples’ valid rage and anger and their case for justice if they happen to be destroying property while they protest. Destroying things to make a point is wrong. Next we know they’ll be throwing a lot of tea into the ocean or something."

You can get pretty close with a combination of people.

And he wasn't indicted, meaning they didn't even take him to court to be found guilty in the first place which is even more unsettling.

haha Yeah pretty much, and that builds onto the many other innocent black men, women, boys, and girls whose murderers were not convicted. Also tying into that are the horrible acts of police brutality, oppression, white supremacy, and systemic racism; injustices that people are so tired of and are fighting to end.

Me too, and breaking through the wall of ignorance some people have is so difficult, but not impossible

You changed your name And so much so here's a huuuge post explaining it all with plenty of sources because I don't think I can sum it all up: http://thot.co.vu/post/103646859799/ferguson-master-post

Very relevant. https://twitter.com/jigosthoughts/status/537098679371714561

You are severely misinformed though and are in no position to be telling people they are wrong. At this point I'm really not in the mood to be debating about this right now, so idk say whatever helps you sleep at night I guess.

:') Yep Two things I can't stand: Sore losers ( I guess it's an ego thing?) and people who speak out of their ass lol

Seriously the amount of ignorance in this world is just overwhelming. Help yourself by educating yourself.

thanks friend I'll definitely keep that in mind c:

nope but I'll manage haha

So elegant lol

The best part is I wasn't even expecting it to be in another language, so I laughed even harder (the latin spanish one is so sassy hahaha)

bless your soul I haven't heard something that majestic in a long time

HOOOOOOOOOhohooh THERE IT IS

Wrong. You're seeing a community come together and grieve over the loss of a son, a friend, a student, a HUMAN BEING. To say they don't care about Mike is a slap to the face. Those police officers should be fearful. The law serves us, not the other way around. The police are not trained members of the army and are abusing their power. Witness testimonies were inconsistent? Uh no... just no.. they line up pretty well. This is not an "unnecessary shitstorm." People are suffering, this country is a tragic mess. They are bringing about change. Protests were peaceful for a long time, and the few people that decided to riot do not represent the vast majority. Like seriously if you're more worried about rioting instead of the horrendous acts committed by the police, uncalled for death of a teen, and the systematic racism that is so heavily present in America, you really need to get your priorities in check. You can rebuild a store, but you can never bring back this poor boy's life. sigh They did not succumb to stereotypes, that's just you being racist. You have no idea how hard it is for a black person (or any person who isn't white) to try and get their voice heard in a country supporting white privilege, unless you yourself are a person of color. Like I said before, the few who resorted to violence do not represent the majority. The police and government are not here to help, get it through your head that they are not on our side. What's going on now will cause change. This isn't the first time an unarmed black kid was murdered. And guess what, cops don't give a shit, they've done nothing to prevent this. THATS WHY IT KEEPS HAPPENING.

Oh of course, I would've been honestly surprised if he was indicted. But I'm still furious, and I can't even begin to comprehend what black people are feeling right now, this is an injustice that's gone on for far too long.

@jilly yeah white america @skhyatze Attitudes like that are what's holding us back. Every person can make a difference

This is every bit a racial issue; racism still exists in America. If Mike Brown was white, Darren Wilson would've been arrested right away. But instead that scum bag was let off the hook, just like the many other sick murderers of innocent, unarmed black people were.
