the context of the history
of Sundown Towns in that
region, which legislated
that people of color had
to leave white towns by
sundown, the imposition of
a curfew and deployment of
the National Guard by the
governor represents a
racist suppression of the
right to self-defense and
a gross violation of the
freedom of assembly. Its
message is clear: the
people most likely to
rebel against injustice
have to be controlled,
their right to protest
quashed, and the absolute
power of the police state
restored.</p>

militarized repression on
display in Ferguson is a
reflection of a world in
crisis. Although separated
by thousands of miles, the
plight of the people of
Ferguson and the Gaza

American youth, could just
have easily been a
Palestinian youth
mercilessly shot by an
Israeli soldier.</p>

understand that in both
cases a long history of
colonialism and racism
justified land
dispossession in Palestine
and slavery in the US.
That history is alive
today with the continued
gross economic deprivation
of these communities and
their isolation through
universally enforced
discrimination in housing.
This pattern of
ghettoization has been
inflicted on both of these
communities since the
founding of the US and
Israel. The systematic
exploitation, repression
and targeting of these
populations by the state
has led and continues to
lead to genocide. <a

this killing
