#deaconsfordefense #roberthicks At the rate that we're going, a modern Deacons For Defense is needed. RIP Atatiana Jefferson. Texas didn't learn from Micah Johnson at all. I guess they think everyone is like that pitiful Brandt dude. They just keep poking the bear. The Deacons For Defense and Justice came about in 1964 in Louisiana. Earnest "Chilly Willy" Thomas and Frederick Douglass Kirkpatrick founded the DFD to go at the KKK that was harassing and attacking black people in Jonesboro, Louisiana. Thomas had served in WW2. Kirkpatrick was a civil rights activist and member of SCLC, who had been ordained that year as a minister in the Pentecostal Church of God in Christ. The Deacons preferred that their members were married men with military experience and registered voters. The branch that everyone came to know out of Bogalusa, Louisiana came together February 21, 1965. The day of Malcolm X assassination. Robert Hicks, Charles Sims, and A.Z. Young led this faction. Who during the summer of 65 had a lot of confrontations with the Klan that forced the government's hand to act on the behalf of black people. Bring the Deacons For Defense back. They went at the Klan and corrupt police when it was called for. https://www.instagram.com/p/B3pzTUABPM3/?igshid=1cf1ixns5h80k

#wewillshootback✊ #mississippi #akinyeleomowaleumoja #grabthis #deaconsfordefense #republicofnewafrica #blackunitedfront #unitedleagueofmississippi In this book Akinyele Umoja shows us how armed resistance provided a space for organizations like the NAACP, the Congress of Racial Equality, and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee to operate. A lot of revisionist today try to paint those organizations as ineffective in the fight that pushed the people forward. Umoja emphasizes the psychological role of violence in maintaining white supremacy. Something that we're seeing a resurgence of as white nationalism has started rearing its head. He touches upon the role that Black paramilitary organizations and enforcer squads played in protecting the people during demonstrations and consumer boycotts. He goes into vivid detail on all facets of the movement. Check it. https://www.instagram.com/p/B1SbL3RH7gg/?igshid=54tq49mu2tt0
