…YOU BURN WITH US!!”

In the old days, they used to put a gun or a knife on somebody after a shooting. Now they don’t even bother. But today, we have cops crying wolf all the time. They testify “I was in fear of my life,” the grand jury buys it, the DA winks and nods, and there’s no indictment.

Will you deny that your jails are filled with the children of the poor, not the children of the rich? Will you deny that men steal because their bellies are empty? Will you dare to state that any of those lost sisters you speak of enjoy going to bed with ten and twenty miserable men in one night and having their insides burn like they were branded? I will not rise to your reform bait. This is your society judge Atgeld; you helped to create it, and it is this society that makes the criminal… And if the workers unite to fight for food, you jail them too… No, so long as you preserve this system and its ethics, your jails will be full of men and women who choose life to death, and who take life as you force them to take it, through crime.

Lucy Parsons

She shouted this at the Governer of Illinois, John Altgeld, at a forum, while the upper class attendees booed and hissed at her. This was sometime during the 1890’s.

HAPPENING NOW (12/4/14): Philly, NYC, Chicago, DC, and beyond— TENS OF THOUSANDS of folks from around the country have poured into the streets. Their aim? Shut. It. Down. We’re demanding justice for all the lives lost this year to police brutality, and calling for an end to the police’s reign of terror, particularly in Black communities. This is a movement in action. #staywoke #farfromover

Steve Rogers did, in fact, realize that something was off when he saw the outline of the woman’s odd bra (a push-up bra, he would later learn), but being an officer and a gentleman, he said that it was the game that gave the future away.
