Black Movement in a Rut?

🖨️ Print Article

Black Is Back Coalition chairman Omali Yeshitela worries that a disturbing “new norm” is setting into the cycle of police atrocities and Black community response. Speaking in St. Louis, where a judge found a white cop guilty of murdering a Black man, Yeshitela said: “To simply be out demonstrating and not having objectives that challenge the existing relationship between our people and the system -- that’s a dead end street.”
