We learned about the Furgeson uprising that happened in 2014. It was a military style response to protesters. The cops beat & tear gassed residents with no regards for their lives or justice. The State convicted #JoshuaWilliams to deter further rebellion!

Please read #AssataShakur’s autobiography! She was falsely accused of killing a cop, arrested & beaten in prison. They wanted to silence her & stop the revolution by holding her & other panthers as political prisoners! They still use these tactics!
