In Milwaukee Wis. , which is one of the most segregated cities in the United States, they had a record amount of inner city youth shootings and fatalities this year. Almost exclusively they were black youths. These people have lived there for the most part as long as anyone else there at this point and the reasons for the hostility there is very obvious. Racism is still a very big issue there, and most white middle and upper middle class people there can not bear even the sight of them and so have at one point pushed them into the older parts of the inner city and now to the older suburbs.
They then turn into slums because they are marginalized in order to eliminate them. They become modern shanty towns with plumbing and electricity. These people are
ignored, but have to watch everyday others living the dream of a better and equal life that, for them, is not there, and never will be.
Welfare and public programs only isolate them more, because they are then seen as a social burden and are then made into consumers without the ability to produce in any normal social form. Black people are still not allowed to own anything that will better thier future in some peoples eyes. How many black CEO'S with all black boards are there? Most likely none.
It is a race war fought by children at this point and that should be taken very seriously,
instead the news tells us what they will do to fight this and that is finally deport these potential future visionaries, label them malcontents and western decadents, and "beef" up the police.
The French should have learned from history, but instead seem to want to control history, in a very wealthy and white way. They are hypocrites in the worst sense of the word.
Nothing in the news about the real issues that cause the youths to see no future for themselves. They needed to talk to some of these kids and find out what the problem is, not legislate police actions and send more children to prison.
They are fucking up autos, that should say it all. They feel stuck. And for the most part I can feel for them, because they are stuck in thier skins with no hope as long as racists make the big changes. |
