Jena Six

by Francisco Da Costa
All over this Nation there is a Movement to stop the injustice meted out to people of color. We have a Movement in the Bayview Hunters Point with Lennar BVHP LLC and there is a Movement on the East Coast with the Jena Six Movement - this Nation cannot afford to divide people and think it can get away with Murder in broad Daylight. With the people united - anything is possible.
There are movements started all over this Nation of ours against blatant injustice.

Remember, the First People have been segregated on Reservations and no one is really taking up the challenge to right this wrong.

Remember, for a long, long time Slaves were used by Whites to make money off their sweat and blood. Thousands killed and whipped. Time for restitution - no one should get away with murder.

Here is California - Native Americans were killed and thugs got money from the scalps - this went on until 1924. Land was stolen and time to return the land to the rightful owners.

The Governors of California sent out edicts to kill the First People and many thought nothing of it.

All over the Nation - there is a Movement - Enough is Enough!

Watch the events going on as a result of the Jena Six episode:
