Thomas Sankara interview in May 1987, just five months before being murdered and overthrown by coup backed by US and France, speaking on the IMF and Western financial aid... "Those who want to help us can come with plows, tractors and fertilizer, not wheat, millet, corn or milk"
Huge doses of appreciation for my friend and activism mentor (though she's younger than me) @MorganSimon1 - taking on private prisons . . . and winning . . . again.
My mother always told me, the truth will set you free. I just never knew I would have to fight a lawsuit from a private prison company making billions off of people’s backs to defend the truth newsweek.com/prison-company-…

For those who are interested in research-based solutions to stop police violence, here’s what you need to know - based on the facts and data. A thread. (1/x)
It involved a Smith & Wesson M&P 9 mm pistol stolen Jan. 1 from a pickup truck outside 230 Satilla Drive, the home of Travis McMichael, according to the police report.
Only one burglary, an automobile burglary, was reported to county police in the Satilla Shores neighborhood between Jan. 1 and Feb. 23, according to documents obtained by The News in a public records request to the Glynn County Police Department.
After the fatal shooting, Gregory McMichael told responding police that “there have been several break-ins in the neighborhood … “ the police report said.
“I’m out here at Satilla Shores,” the man said. “There’s a black male running down the street.”
“Where at Satilla Shores?” the dispatcher asked.
“I don’t know what street we’re on,” the man replied.
“Stop!” [Was heard]. “Watch that. Stop, damn it! Stop!”
“White T-shirt,” the man said. “Black guy, white T-shirt. He’s done run into the neighborhood again.”
[Unintelligible] “And he’s been caught on camera a bunch at night. It’s kind of an ongoing thing. The man building the house has got heart issues. I think he’s not going to finish it.”
“Ok, that’s fine,” the dispatcher said. “And you said he was a male in a black T-shirt?”
“Ok,” the dispatcher said, “What is he doing?”
“He’s running down the street,” the man said. [Unintelligible]
“That’s fine,” the dispatcher said. “I’ll get (police) out there. I just need to know what he was doing wrong. Was he just on the premises and not supposed to be?”
Couric said . . . she believes Washington "totally misconstrued a question I asked and kind of jumped all over me. I don't think I said anything wrong," she said. "I don't know what happened."
I'm with Denzel on this one. And why is this coming up now?
