    Maybe you mods want to do a quick review of GW to make sure there's nothing lacist on here? I'd particularly check Letters' posts.

    In Racist Lane there is a barber showing photographs
    Of the black people he’s turned away
    And all the people that pass them by
    Spit them in the eye.

    Two popular dancewear companies, Capezio and Block, have announced their intentions to start producing their ballet shoes — also known as pointe shoes — in additional skin tone-inclusive colors.
    Mission accomplished!

    Statistics will show whatever you want it to show. If you dont look it its origins. Black people in America live amongst black communities mostly in a society with guns and drugs. So you are surprised after watching programmes like the Wire. That black people are shooting blacks. Tell me how many Mexicans are shot by Mexicans in Mexico. How many Glaswegians are assaulted by Scots in Scotland.
    A man had his life extinguished by a white cop kneeling on his neck and a month before that a retired redneck cop and his bloated son hunt down a black jogger and kill him. But still like you said. Nothing really to see here. Limeny Snickets. A set of curious circumstances. That's all folks

    Yes, and the white cop has been arrested and charged, as have the officers who stood by watching.
    I don’t think anyone is making the argument that these things never happen. But they are rare.
    14 unarmed black people killed by police in 2019 and 25 white.
    That does disproportionately affect black people looking at the population distribution, but it’s hardly gangs of rogue police hunting down and killing black people.
    I’d suggest the bigger issues are with historic zoning laws which meant black families were not able to accrue as much wealth as white, that has trickled down the generations and is not an easy problem to solve.
