Let’s get perfectly clear about what’s going on: What happened in Charleston was a MASSACRE, caused by a TERRORIST. This individual committed a TERRORIST ACT.

So you’re telling me a white terrorist responsible for the killing of 9 churchgoers is able to be detained safely and will probably be afforded a trial, but children like Tamir Rice, Trayvon Martin and Aiyana Stanley-Jones (none of which committed any grievance other than existing while black) absolutely needed to be executed to the point that none of the officers responsible for their murders was convicted of any crimes?

The church is one of the nation's oldest black congregations, with a history dating to the slavery era. Martin Luther King Jr. spoke there in 1962 when it was a centre of civil rights organising.

A white terrorism is real.

to be massacred in our safe spaces, murdered on the streets, in our homes, have our children terrorised at fucking public pools and to constantly be asked if we’re the ones that are going to be peaceful if we’re the ones that aren’t going to be violent is the most exhausting thing

racism isn’t a mental illness

RIP to the 9 People killed at the AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina.
