A Black man in Minneapolis was reportedly shot in the neck by his neighbor leaving him critically injured, despite at least 19 reports to police of racist threats and vandalism from his family about the neighbor. After the assault, it took nearly a week for police to arrest the man — charged with attempted murder and other offenses.

The most dangerous racist idea is the notion that Black communities are dangerous. It endangers Black people when politicians express this racist idea. It protects Black people when politicians express that levels of poverty, unemployment, and guns better explain levels of violence than a community’s racial makeup.

Told y’all they weren’t just coming for CRT (which they don’t even understand). They want to ban all teaching about Black folk. Ultimately they want to roll back even the most basic progress of the past 1/2 century. MO school board bans black history.

No! He responds. Because “They wont even admit the knife is there.”
