A bit of a wild day at the Gloucestershire Police & Crime Panel. I feel that this is local politics at the coalface.

“Leader of UK’s black police officers under investigation over tweet.” So white officer shoots unarmed black man. White officer gets promoted. Black officers leader makes not unreasonable comments about it and is placed under a misconduct investigation. The police have a lot to learn. #Police #Racism #InstitutionalRacism

Wonder who made the decision to defend.
?

It's been suggested that "some people" inside the ABC and in conservative politics are deliberately trying to degrade and damage the ABC's reputation.

The decision to defend seems to have had that effect.

Let's hang all the #DirtyLaundry out in public.

"The real racists, in Bouteldja’s view, are the elites: they control structures born of the legacies of racism, perpetuating racism. The white working class are scapegoats; in fact, they are subjugated by elites."

@dreamaskew

policing is institutional racism.

"The University of Akron announced that during February’s Black History Month, it will cancel the Rethinking Race forum it has held for 28 years.

“While the University of Akron offers a variety of events for students and the community, we must do so in the context of a state institution that is required to abide by law, regulations and guidance at both the federal and state levels, from which we receive funding,” the university said."

Cav, One Tin Soldier @CombatCavScout *** Teaching students that WWIl vets were given GI Bill benefits to help them is teaching history. Teaching them that black vets were deliberately excluded is teaching history through the lens of Critical Race Theory. If you have a problem with that, ask yourself why.
