Damn. I hope she makes a full recovery. Peckham is infamous for being a dangerous area.. it's sad that she was caught up.

Also amazing to see how this 'BLACK' website has threads that have 30 pages for some shyt some whore said or some chick said about Black men, but when a Black sister gets killed, someone who is fighting at the front lines.. it can barely crack a page.

This myth that this is a Black website is a joke..

My girl was just telling me about that too since I'm a foreigner.:francis:


Hopefully she pulls through and people are speaking to the police to arrest this pos.

Some of the journalism on this piece is terrible. They purposefully remind the reader that she has been threatened for her activism throughout the article, insinuating that it is related, and then in the 2nd to 3rd last paragraph, state that she got shot at a house party and was likely not a targeted shooting.

It’s crazy to see the racist sentiment from UK citizens regarding the shooting. Didn’t know the climate there was as bad the US.

Nah it was fair to point out that she had been threatened. There very well could be a correlation.

After all…a police spokesperson stated that it was “not likely a targeted shooting”.. and in the same breath stated that the investigation is still ongoing. How can they come to a conclusion of it not being a target hit without even having suspects identified, apprehended and questioned?

Because there are witnesses and interviews and people of interest (who are now arrested) in the ongoing investigation..
5 people have been arrested in connection to the London shooting of Black Lives Matter activist Sasha Johnson

It's not that your conclusion is illogical given the framing of the article, it's that the article was framed in a way to create suspicion and invites the audience to jump to a potential conspiracy/coverup about BLM members being murdered when Occam's Razor suggests otherwise.

The original article that you chastised was written prior to these events….

I don’t think it’s irresponsible journalism to state that someone who was just shot had previously had their safety/life threatened.
