Is It My Imagination..?

Really my people tell me is what I am hearing and seeing isn't coming more and more prominent.
Lately there are more and more crimes on our people -and it's not us who is doing it.
I'm not speaking on black on black crime either-I'm speaking on crime that is happenning to us all over the place
Not just what happened with the Jenna 6 -
I'm speaking on crime after crime happenning to our people .
It is spreading like a slow-but rapid pace all over the united states [to be more specific]

Yes true to all of you that say it never disappeared -But the disease of this is spreading very rapidly now and in various places in the country.

what is everyone's opinion?

Frankly, these crimes that you mention have always been there. Now for some reason it has more exposure.

I am aware of the media exposure ,I'm speaking of crimes [attacks-murders]that is slowly moving rapidly thru our race and it is unannounced.Of course it's always been there but now it's picking up speed like a virus.

*Just my observation*

That is what Im saying. I don't think that there has been an increase all of a sudden. I think that these incidents have been unknown to everybody outside those particular community.

They are getting bolder because they white folks don't care when their kind does something to black folks.

Well really what's happening is they can no longer contain their hatred for us any longer and it's coming out. They are pissed that they had to keep their blantly racism hidden for these short years and now they are tired of hiding it. I'm glad that they coming out with it, not glad at the incidents where people where hurt or lives lost but I'm glad that they are making it known how they feel, we need to be woken up from our sleep. Too many of us thought everything was great and things were changing and we stopped caring about our communities and started caring more about getting OUT of our communities. We need to through our ship in reverse and go backwards in the way we handle ourselves because we got off track around the time integration happened and we never recovered.
