Fighting state violence, fighting for Black freedom – Everything Law and Order Blog

Malcolm X was assassinated over 50 years ago, but organizations like the Malcolm X Grassroots Movement (MXGM) are carrying on the fight for Black liberation today, winning important victories and developing crucial organizing strategies that social justice movements everywhere can learn from. In this episode of Rattling the Bars, TRNN Executive Producer Eddie Conway and cohost-in-training Charles Hopkins, better known as Mansa Musa, speak with Lumumba Akinwole-Bandele about the crucial lessons MXGM organizers have learned over the years through their efforts to liberate political prisoners, organize and empower Black communities, and combat the apparatuses of state violence. Lumumba Akinwole-Bandele is a community organizer, educator, and member of the Malcolm X Grassroots Movement. He is also the National Strategies and Partnerships Director at Movement for Black Lives and cofounder of the world-renowned Black August Hip Hop Project.

  1. the people themselves are the only ones responsible for the police killings and murders. it is the people who pay for the training, hire, and deployment of police officers who they trained to kill. the people who take part in that kind of policing of others, are just as guilty as the police who kill and murder. people will justify themselves and say that "there is no other way of establishing and maintaining law and order." But, be that as it may be. it does not eliminate the truth nor responsibility of what people are doing. the Son of YAH sent men out to do something entirely different (allbeit, He told us to buy a weapon if we did not have a weapon. and about using those weapons He Said, "how will it come true that i must die for the sins of all people, if by fighting My killers we stop them from killing Me?"
    how great art thou?
    As our AHBA Sent Him, so also He sent us and gave us the same glory that our AHBA gave Him. Yahhochanan (John) c10:v17-18, v36; c12:v23-26, v44-50; c13:V13; c15:v11-15; c17:v7-9, v14, "v18," v20, "v22," c20:v17, "v21-23."
    "Have courage!"
    And do not send train killers and send them out as purported peace keepers. Othewise you (and those people) belong to the world; and are love death.

    Yahhochanan c15: v18-"19," v22-25. Proverbs c8:"v36." He is also "The Wisdom of YHUUH." Who else?

  2. The truth is tge American government has worked overtime since before Jim crow, to keep the poor communities from becoming one. The black, Hispanic, and poor white population of America is by far the majority, together we can make real change, affect elections and every factor of this nation. The government has worked hard to posion the waters between these groups, make them feel different and separate from each other when in truth they face the same struggle, just in different lifestyles. This needs to change, grow together and become what they have always feared since Jim crow laws, which by far displaced black and white poor and illiterate populations ve ause together they were the majority, but also the largest groups of u schooled people who could pass elections tests at the time. Ots time to see things for what they are, and stand as one powerful people, many races but one people, the majority if they stand against elites and upper class together, enough hate, its time to come together

  3. The state will never serve the people thus the people must rise up and create revolutionary change for their communities where they live.

  6. I wish people would stop saying, “we are fighting for“ whatever. When you say the word fighting, you give the police a go ahead to beat the shit out of you. Why, intent. Use the words, “we are speaking out“. Stop using words that express intent. The police are happy to oblige and beat you up. Do not give them the opportunity. They are the ones committing the crime, not you. Other than that, good luck!

    The second amendment gives you the right to form a “well regulated militia“. You can arrest police for bad behavior. You can arrest agent provocateur‘s trying to disrupt your gatherings. Sadly, it depends who you are whether you can carry a gun or not. Food for thought.

  7. How about just fighting for freedom and self determination in general so as to actually unite people from diverse backgrounds who all find themselves regularly under the boot? No? You'd rather serve as a Cointelpro type presence dividing the masses who ALL oppose these abuses regardless of the race of the victim into various factions of supposed enemies? Guess I'll show myself out lol…

  8. WHY DO BLACK PEOPLE THINK THAT THEY'RE THE ONLY ""VICTIMS"" OF THE STATE And, The COP'S, and These f*** up LAWS, . I'm a white boy I've been beaten by police I've been a victim of messed up laws so why do black people think they are the only victims??? United States is a terrorist organization that we are all victims of

  9. Where is your family from in Africa? Who’s Black in America? What happened to the original American Indigenous Negro??? Why not just go to Africa???
