    The stats say it all

    Apparently in 2022 about 1,200 US Black male prisoners died per year

    And in 2023,
    15, 440 Black males were homicide victims ...the highest number of any ethnicity

    Living Black in the US is dangerous

  6. "Chris’ past is repeatedly presented as though it explains why he was killed. Beneath much of the commentary sits an ugly question: was Chris Kaba worthy enough not to be shot by the police?"

  11. Through a political desire for unity, ‘we are documenting the transformation of the very meaning given to the principle of #laïcité, the interpretation of which has undergone a notorious shift: whereas yesterday it allowed the pluralist expression of beliefs, today it requires religious neutrality’.

    Stéphanie Hennette-Vauchez in "L'École et la République - La nouvelle laïcité scolaire" (2023)

  12. A quotation from Frederick Douglass

    Americans! your republican politics, not less than your republican religion, are flagrantly inconsistent. You boast of your love of liberty, your superior civilization, and your pure Christianity, while the whole political power of the nation (as embodied in the two great political parties), is solemnly pledged to support and perpetuate the enslavement of three millions of your countrymen. You hurl your anathemas at the crowned headed tyrants of Russia and Austria, and pride yourselves on your Democratic institutions, while you yourselves consent to be the mere tools and body-guards of the tyrants of Virginia and Carolina.

    Frederick Douglass (1817-1895) American abolitionist, orator, writer
    Speech (1852-07-05), “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?” Corinthian Hall, Rochester, New York

  13. In the midst of a global uprising against police brutality and systemic racism, No Visible Trauma examines a deeply troubled police department and reveals the devastating consequences of unchecked police brutality. Despite its relatively low crime rates, recent years have seen the Calgary Police Service shoot and kill more people than officers in any other Canadian city, and more than either the New York or Chicago police departments in 2018. Five years in the making, the film unravels the intertwined stories of three individuals who were the victims of extreme violence at the hands of police officers. From the kidnapping and beating of a young immigrant from Ghana, to the fatal shooting of an unarmed man during a “wellness check”, the film exposes a criminal justice system that fails to hold police officers accountable for their actions.

    This doc focuses on CalgaryPD but the issues raised are happening across AB, in BC, Manitoba, Ontario & many more places across Canada. Canadian cops keep getting away with crimes & human rights abuses, daily, in Canada. Systemic racism is still a major problem across the country - no matter how much our governments try to whitewash their PR.

  14. If you are serious about change, then stop protecting your own mediocrity and start supporting those whose brilliance, sacrifice, and leadership have been carrying democracy while you benefitted from the myth.
