Respectability politics says that if you just change who you are, then you wont have any problems with the system. Yeah, we know better than that.

In no civilized society should the images of real people be used as target practice. North Miami Police Department use image of black men at the shooting range. And they wonder why we're upset?

Convictions are being overturned in New York because of coerced witness testimonies. Men are being released after spending a lifetime in prison. The same police officer, Louis Scarcella, allegedly used fake witnesses to help convict these men. Across the country, the district attorney in Ferguson admits to putting up a witness he knew was lying. Just so happens she corroborated Darren Wilson's testimony.

Do you believe in progressive ideas? Then stop apologizing for them. Be proud to be called a Liberal.
