Just a reference for why I’m worried that my local Sheriff’s department may not respond. This is my Sheriff.

Ben & Jerry’s July 4 Memo: ‘US on Stolen Land’
 In a brash July 4 message, Ben & Jerry’s is calling on America to return its “stolen Indigenous land,” tweeting the message and emblazoning it on its website.
   July 4 celebrations “distract from an essential truth about this nation’s birth,” the ice cream maker asserts. “The United States was founded on stolen Indigenous land. This Fourth of July, let’s commit to returning it.”
   “Start with Mount Rushmore,” the company, headquartered in Burlington, Vt., says. “That is the meaning of Independence Day for those whose land this country stole, those who were murdered and forced with brutal violence onto reservations, those who were pushed from their holy places and denied their freedom.
   “The faces on Mount Rushmore are the faces of men who actively worked to destroy Indigenous cultures and ways of life, to deny Indigenous people their basic rights,” the invective concludes.
   Ben & Jerry’s July 4 proclamation provoked immediate response and boycott demands on social media, the New York Post reports, with country singer John Rich—who has been outspokenly opposed to Bud Light’s transgender tie-up—tweeting back: “Make @benandjerrys Bud Light again.”
   Another challenger wrote, “Just when you think @benandjerrys couldn’t go any lower—they pull this stunt. Boycott Ben and Jerry’s.”
   One Twitter user called Ben & Jerry’s founders Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield out for their hypocrisy, writing to the “the Bud Light of ice cream”:
   “Seriously now, close shop—or better yet, donate your business and everything you own in these lands that rightfully belong to the Indigenous people—apologize to them, and return to the continent your ancestors came from. Now.”
   Ben & Jerry’s says on its website that its social mission is to “eliminate injustices in our communities by integrating these concerns into our day-to-day business activities.”
   Ben & Jerry’s has previously supported the Black Lives Matter movement and LGBTQ+ actions, and its founders Cohen and Greenfield have demonstrated in Washington, D.C., alongside actor and social activist Jane Fonda, against fossil fuels.
   In 1985, the company founded the Ben & Jerry’s Foundation to fund community-oriented projects, funding it with 7.5% of Ben & Jerry’s annual pre-tax profits.

David Olusoga, the writer and broadcaster, told school leaders that Britain often saw its history as “recreational … a place that we go for comfort, a place to make us feel good about ourselves”, leading to ignorance about the history of its empire, and to immigration scandals such as Windrush.
“We are becoming, perhaps already are, a nation for whom the history that we have and the relationship with history that prevails, is not fit for purpose”

Black History Month 2023: The beat still flows.
You already know the drill. Black History Month is back. It’s been back, already here, and still on the point that it does matter once again. Note to all of you who think it’s racist or even question, why February? Matter of fact, why not February? Let us get into that conversation. Oh wait, it is in the conversation. Black History Month returns yet again. For the 97th consecutive time! It is…

Her murder was first labeled as a drowning when they retrived her from the Ohio River, but her car was discovered several blocks away from the Sherman Minton Bridge, with blood inside. When an autopsy was preformed, it was determined that she received several blows to the head before being tossed into the river, her killer was never found. She was only 34 years old.
(This happened on August 5th, 1965)

California Primary: Is This the End of the George Floyd Moment?
California Primary: Is This the End of the George Floyd Moment?
Since the massive nationwide protests that erupted in 2020 after the murder of George Floyd, the debate over crime and public safety in the Democratic Party has been dominated by urgent calls for reforming police departments and confronting entrenched racial inequities in the criminal-justice system. History might record yesterday’s elections in San Francisco and Los Angeles as the end of that…

*THEY WANT HER!* The question is who exactly is THEY? Yes, they are viewed animals but let's be fair and say that anyone that operates on a lower level of consciousness, no matter what race, creed or color, who choose to kill are identical in character and race has absolutely nothing to do with it! Frankly, this article is likely the reason that the official's overseeing this MONSTROUS human experimentation program, targeting people of all races, have placed specifically Black cops around me. They probably have zero respect for them except a puppets. The reality is that most people think this way about them, including their official handlers and leadership.   It has taken 16 years, in a 24/7 war and rightful battle for my life for them to finally begin to digest that I did not make the best human guinea pig. All of them have tried everything they can think of, with no results thus far. I simply am not scared and have no reason to be which is hard for them to digest. No these officials do not get to set a person up then pretend that they are not involved and testing advanced technologies massively on untold numbers of civilians. "They want her" repeated over and over again by the Black men is obviously a subtle, indirect command to take action and used to commit the ultimate crime as their official overseer's watch.   "They want her..." The fact is repetitive thoughts and words become tools and are self brainwashing. If you say something over and over, and long enough, it can and will blur your moral code. You then become convinced that you have no other alternative but to kill the threat. For the record, this is a unified effort around me, with Federal Agents, corrupt cops and military personnel. Today is "Heart Beam Day" by from the cops while military personnel have been constantly microwave beaming and irradiating my head. Thank goodness, that there are far better human beings on this planet of ALL RACES than those involved in and running this heinous program that they want concealed from the public.   https://lnkd.in/gKR532Pc Thet ALL act more like predators than humans if you ask me.   Lastly, understand that I have loyalty to anyone, trying to kill me, Black or White nor our so-called military heroes or the Zoo Keepers. Birds of a feather flock together!

History isn't a disparate collection of stories from long ago. It's the necessary context for the present moment and the forecast for the future. All histories are intertwined, and the narratives of power and privilege, oppression and resistance, adversity and triumph are as constant in their patterns as the laws of physics.
