On #MLKday let me tell yall the truth how black folk are treated in 2025 USA.
Cops continually circle black hoods looking to take down black folks.
I spend time in Englewood Chicago with my pops and they hunt us down and when I with my momma in houston the same.
We have a long way to go to achieve the equality MLK dreamed of.
#blackmastodon #blacklivesmatter

On MLK day y'all gotta respect Black Lives Matter .
In the US on a daily that ain't true. We get stopped, we get frisked, we get rejected for jobs, police circle like vultures ready to jail our asses for a slight misdemeanor !
Police shoot and murder us without question because we have black skin.
One day MLK's dream will come true 🙏🏿 and we will be treated as equals in this country 🙏🏿

Since MLK Day is coming:

The Democrats' Team Normalcy (Hillary, Barrack, et al) reminds me of the combined MLK + Robert E. Lee holiday in Alabama and Mississippi.

And the way FOX described that one is US corporate media in a nutshell:

"Known as King-Lee Day, the two states acknowledge the impact of one prolific civil rights leader and a famed Civil War general of the Confederacy — quite contrasting public figures but leaders nonetheless."
