It’s so amazing that My Chemical Romance is still showing their care for people, although they didn’t do it together it doesn’t mean that they don’t care. We know this because we know them. A beautiful song for a beautiful person.
This brought tears to my eyes, Ray is the most amazing guy ♡♡♡
RIP Mike Brown. His momma said she didn’t want anymore pics of him laying dead on the street so she shared pics of him as she knew him. This is one…

*crops my husband out of wedding photos * his eyes were closed and i was feeling my look can I live
the man who took those people hostage was involved in the murder of his ex wife which took place last year and also sexually assaulted another woman earlier this year. maybe if we treated violence against women (especially repeated cases) as deserving of more than a slap on the wrist this could have been prevented? just a thought
On November 23rd 2014, for two flights down a darkened Brooklyn (EAST NEW YORK) stairwell, Akai Gurley descended , mortally wounded by gunfire but apparently unaware that the single shot had come from a NYC police officer’s 9 millimeter weapon. (Officer PETER LIANG) The rookie officer shot Akai because he was “nervous”… But does that justify cold blooded murder?
A few paces down and fleeing the boom of gunfire, his girlfriend, Melissa Butler, turned when she no longer heard him behind her, according to an account provided by a senior police official who was briefed by investigators. Retracing her steps, she found Mr. Gurley, 28, near the fifth-floor landing and rushed to a family friend on the fourth floor of the housing project to call 911.
“My neighbor says her boyfriend has been shot,” the friend told the dispatcher, according to the police official, who had viewed the call logs. “Call the cops.”
Akai was later pronounced dead.
Im a 21 year old black man born and raised in EAST NEW YORK BROOKLYN. Akai was murdered 5 minutes away from where I live, in a housing development that my Grandmother happens to have lived in for over 20+ years and still does. That could have EASILY been ME walking up those stairs simply visiting my Grandma…Im sick, I don’t feel safe. Akai was unarmed and INNOCENT. He leaves behind a 2 year old that wonders why daddy’s gone. THIS HAS GOT TO STOP!!! I REFUSE TO LET AKAIS STORY GO UNNOTICED, AKAIS TRIAL IS COMING UP SOON AND WE NEED AN INDICTMENT. PLEASE HELP ME RAISE AWARENESS. PLEASE BOOST THIS POST, 🙏

The officers were told not to do verticals (patrolling the stairways all the way up) but to keep a presence in the common outdoor areas and only enter lobbies as needed.
So why were they even in that stairwell?
where does $1000 go at a place that doesnt serve food or drink and has its rent subsidised?

hi there, sorry! i’m too busy to respond to every anon i get on tumblr since i’m often not even on the internet haha i’m working very hard irl so please remember that theres more going on behind the scenes than u have given credit in your message. but please can u message me on facebook so we can discuss a fair compromise? will be checking that daily, tumblr however, is not a priority.
i really hope you’ve been into the space and used it for its purpose because maybe u have the wrong idea about what homies is (ie it’s not solely a venue, tho yes we have music a lot of the time, it is a community center which is here for you to reflect your passions and use our resources to build what you want for the future, with no monetary obligations, because sharing the load means equal distribution of the fruits we grow ^_^ ) its also been a safe space for people who feel unsafe waiting for the bus at night, it has brought together struggling young people, and what you were kind to donate has absolutely gone to beautiful cause, but hit me up in a more personal format and i’m happy to hear your point of view and reimburse what you feel you have lost. we are definitely working on the zine and because of the delays we’re working on making something veeeeery pretty 4 u :) hope u like it and understand more about this project once u receive it!
peace
naomihmm so… you answered this ask like three days ago and changed the date to mid november so it looked like u weren’t being slack af and refusing to answer people’s questions about where their money went lmao. looks like you got something to hide. maybe that you spent a portion of the kickstarter money on drugs? you should probably not tell people all your dumb shit and then piss them off because people don’t like getting fucked with and hit me up about it :) like how you lied about having your license so you could have your parents’ car… yeah, i found out about how you were smoking weed and falling asleep at the wheel and hit and killed a fucking cow. don’t tell people your dumb ass shit coz it will come back to you. for anyone curious, the best part was that naomi decided this was a spiritual sign to become a vegetarian again and feels literally no regret. whoops!
btw i’ve been informed the council know all about homies and how illegally it’s run! see ya later!
please be wary of giving ur money/time to homies… this some fucked up shit..
You can be depressed and not feel sad or blue. Depression can also be a haze of sleepiness, distractedness/obsessiveness cycles, and a twinge of irritability that can be hard to recognize because you might already be a “fiery” person. It can feel like a lazy Sunday that keeps imposing itself for weeks or months.
Isn’t it amazing how Mike Brown was fat so that made him this superhuman “demon” who couldn’t have been contained without lethal force but Eric Garner was fat and it made him so fragile that officers couldn’t be held responsible for his death?
#AliveWhileBlack is the heartbreaking response to #CrimingWhileWhite
The hashtag #CrimingWhileWhite became a platform to illustrate what often happens when white people engage in criminal activity. It was a powerful moment, as white people openly acknowledged that they don’t face nearly the same punishment or brutality experienced by their black counterparts. But despite the good intentions of those who participated, many others felt like the hashtag detracted from conversations about the value of black lives.
- Do not forget Michael Brown
- Do not forget how the media dehumanized him and tried to justify his murder
- Do not forget how peaceful protests were painted as savage riots
- Do not forget police armed with military grade weapons terrorized and arrested black civilians
- Do not forget Darren Wilson being awarded over $200,000 in fundraiser donations for murdering an unarmed black child
- Do not forget that this system was not built to defend us, but to control us
- Do not forget Ferguson
