The African community rose up and fought back in a powerful display of black power in Charlotte last night following the police murder of Keith Lamont Scott on Tuesday afternoon.

Hundreds of Africans rallied together overnight to demand black power. Africans are absolutely fed up with daily police murders of our sisters and brothers.

Africans threw rocks at police, set fires and blocked part of Interstate 85. Our people also jumped on top of a police van and stomped on it, breaking the windshield and other windows.

Sixteen cops felt the bodily wrath of the African community as they experienced various injuries.

In Chicago, Illinois and East Chicago, Indiana, hundreds of poor working class Africans are being relocated by by the State after alarmingly high levels of lead in soil has been revealed. 

The extent of the lead contamination came as a shock to the African community, due to the dangers of the past presence of a huge former U.S.S. lead smelting plant being kept from the them. 

The African communities of Illinois and Chicago are well aware of the effects of lead poisoning which Flint’s Africans are struggling with. They are also fearful and demanding answers as to why the government did not inform them of the severity of the soil toxicity much sooner.

John Lewis, the U.S. congressman who has a never-ending need for “white acceptance,” crowd surfed following an interview on August 31, 2016 on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

The grinning 76-year-old allowed the mostly-white audience to lift him up from the stage as he “surfed” his way over the crowd’s outstretched hands. 

For his entire career, Lewis has used his time in the Civil Rights Movement to keep himself in the limelight and in the favor of white people, and at the expense of the African population.

A Harris County grand jury no-billed the cop who murdered an African man, Ashtian Barnes on August 31, 2016.

Twenty-four-year-old Ashtian was shot and killed by cop who we only know as R. Felix. The shooting was captured on the pig’s dashcam. 

According to the pig, he pulled over because of toll violations on the rental car that he was driving on April 28, 2016.

Notorious white rapist Brock Turner was released from the Santa Clara County Jail on September 2nd, after serving three months for raping an unconscious woman behind a dumpster. He was sentenced to six months, but was released early for “good behavior.”

The sentencing was so lenient because, according to the judge, prison would have "a severe impact on [Brock]." 

Protesters gathered at Baltimore's scenic downtown harbor to protest the execution of Korryn Gaines and the shooting of her young son, Kodi, by Baltimore pigs on August 27, 2016.
