    Policing our communities have nothing to do with interacting with cops. Laws have to prevent cops from targeting black people in order for that to happen.

    yep laws will fix all the problems

    we need to put all that energy we putting on this BLM political movement in our own communities, and have the people perpetuating the violence become peaceful leaders of their communities. If we can police our communities we won’t interact with cops no mo. less cop patrolling = less opportunities for them to abuse power

    Bro imagine if niggas did that. Imagine if that 35 million that went to the bailout fund went to the community

    what is disrespectful

    It’s disrespectful to say black people don’t care about gun violence in inner cities when it’s an issue that black people in the most afflicted cities care about deeply.

    I can provide a list of organizations in Chicago alone that work tirelessly to reduce gun violence in the city.

    I hate the fact that even the mere mention of this issue is enough for someone to call you a coon.

    Like how are you supposedly from one of these communities and meet someone with such animosity when they try to bring the issues to the table lol

    Community policing. Think about what police do? Most of the time police arrive after the crime is committed. The thing with community policing it will mean reallocation of funds. Research shows that rich neighborhoods can afford to have neighborhood watches instead of heavy cop presence because less crime happen there.

    If you give people a livable wage, decriminalize marijuana, treat d*** users as patients and not criminals etc, invest in schools and infrastructure of the poorer neighborhoods, crime would go down.

    That’s of course a bigger freedoms dream.

    Black on black crime is only a topic of conversation when police or the state lynches a black man. It’s a distraction technique.

    If they want to help with black on black crime, then invest in community outreach, better house, job development programs, free college, etc. that’s how you fix proximity violence.

    Q: and where will those funds come from?

    A: defunding the police

    Also police are overworked. You don’t need an armed police officer for a naked homeless person on the street. You need a social worker or counselor.

    So also use them (if needed) in a lesser capacity.

    It's not that black people taking accountability is bad per se. But it ignores the systems and powers that put black people in these kinda f***ed up situations in the first place.

    It's like this, you can't tell black people they need to stop killing one another and then not give them the means in which to educate and/or better themselves, but instead introduce their communities to d****, guns, poor schooling, etc.

    It's not as simple as "Stop killing one another!" One must a***yze the conditions these people live in and how they got to where they're at.

    For Lupe Fiasco to be on that respectability/accountability politics s*** when we are seeing right now what created these conditions, and discovering the truth is a very head ass stance to take in all this.

    I do somewhat agree with this but Lupe brought something similar to this up in a live stream a week ago. Most ppl haven't traveled the world. You really think black ppl in the hood got it as bad as people in living in India, parts of Africa, thailand and other foreign places. Their education aint s*** compared to U.S which isn't saying much and there is a whole system of d**** that infiltrate their community and you're seeing doctors, lawyers, and technicians come from these countries. Lets not also forget the housing that is provided or lack there of in these countries
    Also to note Im black if this was going to be anyone's response
