-The role of the state perpetuating intraracial violence is being erased from the history books, leaving people to fill in the "How did we get here?" blanks with racist propaganda such as our irresponsibility, "inherent violent nature," rap music, et cetera.
-Generation after generation of black babies born in poverty since slavery, rewarded with dependent money for the pregnancy cycle embedded in our culture from ancestors forced to birth free labor, instead of resources to break what was created by the state. Broken is the goal.
-Urban violence = uneducated unemployable black descendants coralled into a dangerous environment created AFTER a century of racist mobs destroying thriving, safe black communities. Before there was Black Lives Matter burning trash cans there was Tulsa. This is why the conversation about black violence and crime begins at a very specific point in time, right around the time the govt was pumping our communities full of narcotics (CONTRA). FYI: "The man" bringing drugs into black neighborhoods isn't conspiracy, the US govt has admitted its role in the narcotics trade and subsequent War on Drugs being an excuse to target and incarcerate people of color.
-Black-on-black crime organically decreases the percentage of black people voting and males becoming head of household.
-All violence is intraracial- a natural byproduct of segregated communities. Asians mostly kill asians, whites mostly kill whites, latinos kill latinos because of proximity. If you live around a bunch of people who look like you, chances are a majority of the violence that happens will be committed by and against people who look like you.
-Black on black crime is never discussed in a manner of "Oh no, black people are in constant danger of violence, how can we help them?" it's used as a checkmate in conversations about color to villainize blackness just like racist propaganda from the 1960s "WATCH OUT FOR THOSE DANGEROUS FERAL NEGROES!" That's why there's never a concern for the victim, rather wink wink nudge nudge reminders that black people are a threat to everyone, least of all themselves.
-Discussing black violence and crime is defended as "relevant social commentary" (or "tellin it like it is") but if we talk about 80+% of serial killers or the seemingly 90% of mass shooters being white that's "reverse racism." The end goal: protect whiteness, criminalize blackness.
And I have to remind myself to be mindful that most of you are only expressing what you were raised and conditioned by the school system to believe-- the inherent inferiority and dangerousness of blackness. It's not even your fault.
Being racist isn't a choice, staying racist is.
