Big K.R.I.T. Responds To Ferguson:
“It’s one of those situations where I’m excited that people are finally starting to become frustrated with how civilians are being treated. How young people are being treated. How young black men are being treated, especially the amount police brutality. Coming from where I’m from, there was a lot of things that happened that don’t make it to this level of media. It’s good to see something happen in a city of that nature and people take to it. So many artists are taking to it. So many people are taking stands. And I think now the government has to listen. I think people have to pay attention. And we can’t keep allowing this to happen.”

“This photograph was taken the morning after [Black steel mill worker] Zachariah Walker’s execution by a lynch mob. Despite strong evidence against the accused, local juries found none of the local men and teenage boys guilty.”
Lynching was never just a Southern phenomenon and didn’t always involve a noose, as the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission can tell you:
As an angry mob dragged him from the hospital, Zachariah Walker is said to have cried, “For God’s sake, give a man a chance! I killed Rice in self-defense. Don’t give me no crooked death because I’m not white!” His pleas, however, fell on deaf ears. In a field just outside the borough of Coatesville, Walker was thrown into a hastily constructed fire. Three times he attempted to crawl out, only to be pushed back in until he moved no more. A crowd estimated between 3,000 to 5,000 men, women, and children witnessed Walker’s ordeal with a calm resolve.
After it was over, the crowd politely dispersed, though some lingered to collect body parts and other souvenirs before going back into town. The lynching occurred on a Sunday-“that quiet Sabbath evening,” W.E.B. Du Bois wrote scornfully. Within days, the area surrounding the site had been picked clean of the body, fence posts, ashes, and even blades of grass, and community leaders were calling for a return to normalcy.
The lynching of Zachariah Walker in 1911 personifies what historians call a “spectacle lynching,” a mob execution that included the most barbaric indecencies one can imagine. Though the geography of a northern industrial town seems not to fit our understanding of lynching, the episode is freighted with significance. Among its many layers is the web of racial and ethnic tensions that were present in Coatesville and other industrial towns during an era of sustained migration. Though the lynching was highly unusual, the pattern of social frictions that pervaded Coatesville, a prosperous steel town forty miles west of Philadelphia, was not uncommon…

"Arms Up Don’t Shoot" by John Darkow, Cagle Cartoons, 2014. Let history record that Michael Brown was in fact an angel; the word means, simply, “messenger.” Unlike mainstream media organizations in Ferguson, the news he brought told the truth, and his murder should shame the devil:
Cal Brown, who is married to Michael’s father, said she had been having conversations about God with her stepson ‘Mike Mike’ when he thought she would “not make it” as she lay in [the] hospital.
"Mike Mike told me, ‘I didn’t think you were going to make it.’ And I said why and he said, ‘Because I’ve been dreaming of death, seeing pictures of death, seeing pictures of bloody sheets hanging on clotheslines,’" she told a church filled with mourners during his funeral service.
"That touched me. That’s what it was like when he was laying there on the street (after being shot). He prophesised his own death."

“I read about the Okapi, which is a type of animal (sort of like a dog) that is native to Africa. Imperialists considered it a folk legend and not a real animal because the native Africans were not seen as a reliable source for information. The "discovery" of the Okapi was later credited to a white Englishman. This is how I feel the media largely reports on the story, that white people are seen as authoritative and then black people, like Dorian Johnson, can only give the folk-lore version of what happened.”
An insightful comment about the Black Gaze and how it is considered illegitimate by default. Especially in relation to five eye witnesses telling the same exact story about Micheal Brown’s death not being taken seriously….but now there’s two white construction workers speaking up and we all know the game is about to change.
When I say "hell to pay", I don't mean religiously.
