Has the FBI ever, ever been a positive arm of justice for black folk?

Do they award Pulitzer Prizes for blog post? Bravissimo! Had to do a double check and make sure this wasn’t written by Langston Hughes. Damn this was good.

“Others think that saying they have Native ancestry makes them think they are better than Black people some how.”

But you know what I didn’t have to deal with?

“Because you cannot repair the harms caused by marijuana prohibition if you don’t want to repair the harms associated with why I’m on this fucking continent in the first place.”
