I feel too sad about what’s happening in Ferguson right now (or lately). I also feel proud for the people who won’t stay quiet. For the people who are fighting against corruption, racism and for justice.
But I wanna ask something to you all. Please, don’t forget what is happening in Mexico right now. We are also fighting, just like you. The world is becoming crap. We are fighting even for the resignation of our corrupt president. We’ve been fighting for peace for almost ten years. Please, don’t forget us.
We won’t forget Ferguson, because we, the whole country of Mexico, know what is it like to see innocent people being murdered and seeing the culprits going free.

It is its own weird brand of dystopia that a whitewashed movie celebrating revolt against a police state will earn a bajillion dollars in the same week that people protesting excessive authoritarian violence and injustice are forcibly suppressed and given racist treatment by a largely unsympathetic public

Si ellos nos matan es orden, si nos defendemos lo llaman violencia.
If they kill us, that is order, if we defend ourself, they call it violence.
S’ils nous tuent, c’est de l’ordre; si nous nous défendons, ils parlent de violence

Anonymous asked: I need help. My entire family is Wilson supporters. Literally, my entire family is a bunch of prejudice white rich people. I need facts that will shut them up from the get-go. I would for sure look them up myself but if my mom caught me, I'd be nothing more than the floor under her Louboutin stilettos. Also, I'm supposed to be doing homework. Much thanks, and happy Holidays.

No worries pal I understand and I’m glad that you’re looking for ways to shut them up even if it’s risky for you to do so.
So here’s some websites and facts to shut your family up this Thanksgiving over the dinner table.
- This post is really long but good
- Darren Wilson already has a long history of being a piece of shit
- The police are total liars
- “Would you support Darren Wilson if he killed your son?” honestly makes you think
- Mike Brown PAID for the cigarettes he supposedly stole, and here’s proof
- The police open fire at PEACEFUL PROTESTORS and in case your family is for some reason unaware, this goes completely against the First Amendment which allows freedom of speech and and the right to peacefully assemble
- And in case that wasn’t enough evidence of harming peaceful protestors against the First Amendment…
- And in case I missed anything here and here are some other masterposts about the subject
blessphemy for ur dad
The National Bar Association calls out the injustice of the Mike Brown Shooting Death decision.
YES

Trailer: Pan: Okay, so in the shadow of the Jurassic World trailer, this first look at the dark/edgy Peter Pan reboot doesn’t exactly sell us on the film. Of course, Hugh Jackman chewing miles of scenery whilst looking like like Nosferatu with a goatee for two hours would be a cinematic blessing, but alas there are other elements to the film, from Garrett Hedlund as the young Captain Hook filling the handsome slab of meat role, to Rooney Mara looking like she’d rather be anywhere else than in front of a camera as a white Tiger Lily. Of course, it was never going to live up to Hook (still the pinnacle of Pan adaptations, no matter what anyone says), but as it stands - admittedly on the back of one solitary trailer - Pan looks like a rather large turkey in the 2015 schedule.
Wow they really just…. Decided to handle the whole racist portrayal of native peoples thing by. Making all the native people white. Either that or they had their little hearts set on an all-white cast. Incredible

like… black people aren’t protesting for healthcare or abortion or gun rights… they are quite literally protesting to be seen with humanity. they’re protesting to be seen as humans worthy of LIFE. Worthy of a respectful obituary, memorial and investigation into their death if it was by a killer cop.theres something wrong with the fact that black people need to rally in the street saying “DONT SHOOT”

Support the artist! Watch the full poem: Javon Johnson - “cuz he’s black”
this is so relevant in light of recent events of police brutality against MIchael Brown and john Crawford. #blacklivesmatter

It’s also easy to say “I’m not into politics” when your rights are never in peril
