The law enforcement agencies aren't only to blame: American indifference has become the easy out for many who don't want to acknowledge their role in the white supremacist history of this nation. Just say, "no politics," like a waving of a wane, and free oneself from responsibility.
Pretty sad state of being in the world among the living!
I can't afford to wear blinders and talk nonsense about not wanting to talk about "politics" given that my ancestors were kidnapped, sold, and owned as property, allowable and enforced by laws legislated in the US. The violence used against those ancestors and against Blacks since is the result of political indifference toward Black lives.
The personal is political and the political is personal.
