Unfortunately criminality and ignorance is popular in our community.
This is false. The no snitching movement became popular from Italian crime families, as did the embracing of criminals as folk heroes. Stop putting everything on black people. That’s self hate.

Being against snitching also has roots from slavery, when subservient black people would tell on those who were trying to plan uprisings or simply run away.

“Mind your business” and “stop telling” is something every black person has heard as a child and it’s for a reason.

No need to front about it. We all see the ignorance that is pushed in the forefront of our media.
