Deters and the Zimmerman Mind-Set

                                   Just-Us, Justice Blog

This Sister speaks truth to power. If you haven't read Michelle Alexander's book, The New Jim Crow:  Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness do so immediately if you care about, want to understand, and contribute to  the struggle. 

Alexander wrote this article in Time magazine titled The Zimmerman Mind-Set where she lays out cold hard facts like she does in her book. 

America might not care about black and brown young men, but they care about green dollars.  What's the cost to prosecute a murder anyway?  Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters once said that he wished that he could put young men of color  in a cage and let them shoot themselves, guess he wanted to eliminate the high coast of prosecution.  Did I mention that Deters pays hookers? I digress.

In other news why has Christopher Smitherman sold out the black community? Read why, here.

Shahrazad Ali Speaks Truth to Power on Dr. Drew

She talks in plain language, wears a royal hat and identifies herself as a Black Queen.  Many people love her because she talks about the real conditions of racism in America.  Is she on point, or way off base?  You tell us.  We know that you either love or hate her.
It's interesting that the comments on this blog attacking Ms. Ali don't mention Frank Taafe, the disgrace to the human race. Does Frank Taafe embarass white people?

Christopher Smitherman,Cincinnati NAACP silent: TRAYVON MARTIN CASE

Justice “Just-us” Blog

On Monday NAACP President and CEO Benjamin Todd Jealous, told attendees at the NAACP convention in Orlando, Florida that George Zimmerman’s acquittal brought him to tears.

Jealous tears will plummet into the river with millions of other people that felt the sting of injustice with Zimmerman’s acquittal.

The tearful will gather this Saturday as demonstrations are planned in more than 100 cities

Rev. Al Sharpton of the National Action Network has called for a “Justice for Trayvon National Day of Action.”  Jealous and other civil rights leaders are calling on concerned citizens to attend this rally.

The Greater Cincinnati Chapter of the National Action network is busy getting details out to Cincinnatians and thousands are expected to attend this rally.

Meanwhile the oldest Civil Rights organization in Cincinnati and the country for that matter has been silent.  The local chapter’s silence is as deadly as George Zimmerman’s bullet.

We will continue at this blog to hold NAACP president Christopher Smitherman and VP Jim Clingman accountable. If they want to be silent on civil rights issues then they should unchain the chapter. We will also hold absent Cincinnati Council candidates and incumbents accountable should they choose not to attend this rally.

Rally details here.
