At first I thought this was fake news. I couldn’t believe it. The city of Philadelphia firebombed an entire black neighborhood in 1985 and the police commissioner told the Fire Dept to “let it burn.” Men, women, and quite a few children were killed in the ensuing flames, their bodies burned to “ashes” due to the intensity of the fire. 250 people left homeless. All of this to destroy MOVE, a black liberation movement, whose members were arrested on bogus charges and acquitted. Nothing has changed.
No one was ever held accountable and no one ever apologized. So, let’s talk about sending in DHS troops to protect racist statues and stifle protesters... and how many times the racist members of this administration inflame the tensions and carry out atrocities.
