This was our Najee

The Neighborhood Hero.

Here he is in his element talking to youth in one of his healing circles.

Last Friday he was killed by police after he called 9111 while experiencing a mental health crisis. Let people know who Brother Na really was.

Property is not more valuable than a human life. Things can be replaced, Najee’s life can’t.

Everyone learned about the 100+ Israeli hostages on Oct 7. But now the whole world is learning about the thousands of Palestinian hostages that have been held in Israel for years.

Many have not only never been convicted, many have never been to trial or even charged.
Israeli rights group B’Tselem reports 1,310 Palestinians held without trial as of September, with 146 minors. Since then, Israel's use of administrative detention surged, surpassing 2,000 detainees in the assault’s first four weeks.
Israel's terror against Palestinians includes the intensified use of administrative detention—a tool for indefinite imprisonment without charge or trial. Numerous detainees languish for months or years without facing any criminal charges.

This includes 100s of children.

So.. on my way to do mutual aid tonight in Paterson, I saw a group of young Black men, almost all with black ski masks, and no older than 18, gathered on a porch enjoying themselves. I knew we’d have extra food and I figured a few would want some Jamaican dinners. Man listen…
I walked over to them and introduced myself. I told them I had extra Jamaican dinners and before I could finish asking if they’d like some they was like “Jerk chicken? Oxtail? Hell yeah”

There is no oxtail. I don’t know where they got that idea from.
Now, I was literally expecting only 3 or 4 to say they wanted some. I asked how many. They started counting each other 1,2…11. They pointed to inside the house. No, 12. I said “Aight, I’ll be right back”

Then a car door opened and someone yelled from it “13!”

Black students have been leading a sit-in at Syracuse University for 6 straight days. #NotAgainSU has a list of demands for their university, including:

◾️Expel anyone involved in racist incidents
◾️Hire more counselors that represent marginalized groups
For those looking to donate to sustain their sit in movement in order for them to purchase food and toiletries. Here is there gofundme link: gofundme.com/f/black-studen… #NotAgainSU
If you are a college student please consider having your organization put out a statement of solidarity. And have conversations on your campus about the institutional racism you face there as well. #NotAgainSU

I fear there's a cover up goin on in Paterson, NJ.

On January 5, 2019 a 27-year-old Black man by the name of #JameekLowery, walked into Paterson Police HQ’s seeking assistance and water. He ended up BEATEN, BRUISED and DEAD.
#JameekLowery walked to PPD for help and went on FB Live. You can hear the fear in his voice as he begged officers not to kill him.

He even gave the premonition that if he is dead in the next hour, the cops did it.

He arrived at the hospital unresponsive 15 mins later.
In 2018, 5 Paterson cops have been arrested by the FBI for selling drugs out their cop car, seizing funds from drug dealers and not reporting and for beating a suicidal hospital patient at the same hospital Jameek Lowery appeared bruised & battered at.

This is badass.

High school students lock out administrators in protest of racist video and stage an overnight sit in.

#studentsofcolormatter @dad_soc @SOCmatter
Students in the Bronx felt the school’s @ecfs1878 response to their demands to address racism on campus were inadequate..

So they locked them out.

They are so organized and ready to win. @SOCmatter @dad_soc #studentsofcolormatter
Students are diggin in for their second night of occupying their high school because of the administration’s inadequate response to the demands.

You can support by ordering them some pizza from salvatoresofsoho.com

School: 3901 Fieldston Road Bronx NY #studentsofcolormatter
