DESCRIPTION:On the day Pres. Obama is giving the eulogy at Emmanual A.M.E. Church to 
 the victims of the massacre in Charleston, We say:\nNO MORE – WHICH SIDE 
 ARE YOU ON?\n\nNO MORE! To racist violence targeting Black people, whether 
 the perpetrators are white supremacists out of uniform, or cops in uniform. 
 The white supremacist who murdered 6 Black women and 3 Black men because, 
 had the nerve to say “... you are raping our women and taking over our 
 country.” This in a country where countless numbers of enslaved Black 
 women were subjected to rape by slave owners and other white men associated 
 with the plantations and in a country founded on stealing the land from the 
 inhabitants. This magnitude of the horror perpetrated demands a powerful 
 response.\nWhile there has been a lot of response to this foul massacre, 
 there's something missing in that response – something that taps into and 
 gives expression to the rage that many people righteously feel over this 
 atrocity. There is too much talk that what's needed now is coming together 
 and healing. How can there be healing if the deep wounds inflicted by white 
 supremacy aren't exposed for what they are? Should we come together with 
 those who unleash and/or preside over attacks on Black people on every 
 front and hold hands while these attacks continue?\nThe time for 
 reconciliation and healing is after the disease has been diagnosed and 
 rooted out not while it’s still raging. The disease is white supremacy, 
 and it’s been raging in America since the first Africans were dragged to 
 these shores in slave chains. It continues to rage today with police being 
 given a green light to brutalize and murder African-Americans and Latinos; 
 and with racists feeling emboldened to massacre Black people.\n\nTHIS MUST
