The Texas Sheriff Where Sandra Bland Died Was Previously Suspended for Racism 

The head sheriff of Waller County, Texas, where 28-year-old Sandra Bland was allegedly found asphyxiatedin a jail cell on Monday, was fired from his job as Hempstead, Texas, police chief in 2008 following allegations of racism, according to the Houston Chronicle.

Decades of feminism have not extinguished white women’s antagonism towards Black females. White females routinely malign entertainment mogul Shonda Rhimes and FLOTUS Michelle Obama as “angry Black women.” So imagine what white female teachers think of Black girls?

If white women are underrepresented in the field of law enforcement, they compensate with overrepresentation in the early stages of the school-to-prison pipeline. It’s estimated that white women comprise 63 percent of K-12 teachers in the United States. So when the Civil Rights Project at the University of California, Los Angeles documents that “African-American students are three times more likely to be suspended than whites,” that’s not “the man.”

According to the Left Business Observer, “the federal prison industry produces 100 percent of all military helmets, war supplies and other equipment. The workers supply 98 percent of the entire market for equipment assembly services; 93 percent of paints and paintbrushes; 92 percent of stove assembly; 46 percent of body armor; 36 percent of home appliances; 30 percent of headphones/microphones/speakers; and 21 percent of office furniture. Airplane parts, medical supplies and much more: prisoners are even raising seeing-eye dogs for blind people.”

Bye, Becky! Why I’m Never Here For Solidarity With White Women. 

They’re all too ready to be the sistas’ sisters, but history teaches me and the present confirms that white women are no sisters of mine. Surely the time for the solidarity they now seek was when their sons and husbands entered the cabins of enslaved black women, ripped their clothes and reminded them that their bodies belonged to white men. Where was their empathy and clapback then? Instead of pleading with your husbands or ordering your sons to stop, you turned your wrath to the black victims of their violent sociopathy. You abused our children conceived by rape and terrorized their mothers to massage your own ego, which was punctured by the knife of insecurity every time your husband chose to violate a black body instead of taking yours which you offered so eagerly.

And what of your feminism? You have yet to answer Sojourner’s question, “Ain’t I a Woman?” Yet, you deify Margaret Sanger hailing her as the god of the modern feminist movement while minimalizing, explaining or altogether ignoring her racist ideas and practices. You lift her up because despite how she felt about “blacks”, she was still a great champion of women’s rights. And this is why the sistas are not your sisters.

See you all look in the mirror and a see a woman because white is the default. We look in the mirror and see a black woman. And for us, race and gender are coconut and rice. When you mix the coconut of blackness with the rice of womanhood, one is indistguishable and inseparable from the other. So if you want a spoonful of my rice know that it’ll be mashed with my coconut.

Former Enforcement Official Wins Lawsuit After Being Labeled ‘Muslim Terrorist’ and Fired

The 9/11 attacks saw public sentiment turn against American Muslims, with many people thinking they all must be terrorists. This compounded the problems of Black Muslims, who already suffer from racial discrimination. Tennessee state trooper De’Ossie Dingus was a victim of a blatant case of religious discrimination, but he fought back and recently won his case in court.

The Knoxville News reports a federal judge sided with Dingus and ruled the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security was guilty of discrimination for firing Dingus.

“U.S. District Judge Tena Campbell found the agency violated the rights of De’Ossie Dingus by firing him in 2010 after a military liaison dubbed the 10-year Tennessee Highway Patrol veteran a budding terrorist without any proof,” reported The Knoxville News.

Dingus was fired after a disagreement with military liaison Maj. Kevin Taylor, who branded him a terrorist after he had complained about a video showing the radicalization of children. The video was shown during a class on how to spot weapons of mass destruction.

Taylor labeled Dingus as “disruptive” and “confrontational.” However, Dingus was backed up by 35 other officers.

“An internal investigation showed none of Dingus’ co-workers shared Taylor’s view. Most said they’d never once heard Dingus mention his faith,” reported The Knoxville News.

In spite of the support of his fellow officers, senior staff in the Tennessee Department of Safety (TDOS) fired Dingus, largely based on Taylor’s recommendation.

Enforcement Official Arrested 3 Times in the Past 6 Months Finally Resigns (Not Fired)

Ms. Staniland has resigned from Police Department, a spokesman for the NYPD's Deputy Commissioner of Public Information confirmed.

Her most recent encounter on the wrong side of the law was on July 1 when she was riding a motorcycle on Davis Avenue shortly before 11 a.m. on Staten Island. She lost control of her bike as she tried to turn onto Henderson Avenue, striking two vehicles waiting at a red light, authorities allege.

As Ms. Staniland was removing her ID from her backpack to show to police, an officer spotted drug paraphernalia including a silver spoon and a syringe, according to cops.

A search revealed four and a half pills of an anti-anxiety drug for which authorities claimed she had no prescription. Police charged her with criminally possessing a hypodermic needle, misdemeanor drug possession, and driving an unregistered motorcycle without license plates.

She had a "Little Miss Dangerous" logo on her motorcycle helmet, police said.

Ms. Staniland was suspended from the force after being cuffed on drug possession charges while she was on-duty in Brooklyn on May 13.

SERENA WILLIAMS DRINKS, BATHES IN, AND MAKES LEMONADE WITH WHITE TEARS

Because it’s almost as if Serena Williams was specifically and intentionally created with the intention of pissing off the most racist sports fans possible. Her entire existence is an elaborate troll for White tears.
