Richmond Officials Say White Supremacists Caused Violence at
Protests
--- Quote ---
> In US news and current events today, the Black Lives Matter
protests in Richmond, VA were largely peaceful until a group out
outside agitators, white supremacists, and adherents of the
Boogaloo movement incited violence for their own racist
purposes. The Richmond protests were peaceful until the outside
agitators made them violent, echoing scenes across the country
as various racists factions try to manipulate the BLM movement
for their own nefarious goals. After the police killing of
George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Rayshard Brooks, and countless
other Black people in America, the resulting George Floyd
protests and Black Lives Matter protests against police
brutality, police racism, and police violence have put systemic
racism in the spotlight as BLM protesters take to the streets in
support of police reform, racial justice and civil rights.

Doxxing, anyone?
Also, if someone not wearing a mask gets within 2m of you with
their mouth spraying saliva, it should be considered
self-defence to shoot them.

Nice sentiment, but so what? The bully is still alive:

Writing "Black Lives Matter" on sidewalks any number of times
still does not change this reality. If there were truly
neighbourhood solidarity, the locals would use their firearms to
turn the neighbourhood into a no-go zone for bullies.

Was the protestor carrying a firearm? If so, why did she not use
it in self-defence after being punched? There could have been
one less racist in the world if she had done so.

Money from whom? Not from the thieves themselves, that's for

beaten up in the fight and was then fatally beaten himself.

someone could be killed in Italy for having tried to help a
friend.

quell disputes or to try to protect weaker friends or friends in
obvious difficulty?” Conte asked. “I don’t think this can be the
answer or the way forward. Rather, we must multiply our efforts
in every location and context, so that our children grow up with
the culture of respect for everyone.”

> In an effort to expose the persistence of racism at schools,
Black alumni and current students have taken to social media to
share their personal, often traumatic experiences with racism on
campus and push for these institutions to make changes. Some
groups have created Instagram accounts, such as "Black at
Dartmouth" and "Black at Blair Academy," where students can
share their stories.

> The "True Colors of Columbia" Instagram account was created
for past and present students of Columbia Prep, a private school
in New York City, to expose racial injustice and demand change.
Columbia Prep alumna Lauren Gloster, one of the administrators
of the account, told CBSN this movement has been "a long time
coming."

> "We've been silenced, and frustrated and hurt for so long,"
Gloster told CBSN's Anne-Marie Green and Vladimir Duthiers.
"This movement was, and is, what we need in order to make our
voices heard."
> ...
> Some of the stories shared on the "Black at" Instagram pages
are searing firsthand accounts of experiencing racism at school.
>
> "You know, I myself have been physically assaulted by
students, White students in my school, because I'm not as
affluent as they are," Gloster said, adding that some students
said they have been "threatened to be lynched."
>
> Gloster said even parents and school staff have engaged in
racist behavior. "And so, when you feel cornered by not just
your student body, but your faculty and your administration and
the parents around you, it's really, really difficult to feel as
though you are a fully matriculated member of the community. And
that you have the same rights as everyone else in your
community," she said.

Social Work and Equitable Community Practice at the University
of St. Joseph, told CBS News via email that many young people
who experience racism don't report it because they fear they
won't be believed by authority figures.

statistics about racial incidents that happened at the school.
According to "Black at AMSA," 62 percent of students at the
school have been in a classroom where the N-word was used in a
lesson and say it made them feel isolated or uncomfortable.

isolated from or chastised by their peers, according to the
group. And 61 percent said they had been the victim of "racism,
anti-blackness or microaggressions" from teachers at the school.

Now that you have shared your stories, are you willing to buy
firearms and use them? Because otherwise shared stories are just
shared stories. You think the bullies will change their
behaviour just because you are sharing stories?
