Here is to the UTMOST honoring of all these young people. I wish I were there. Me: I could NOT be prouder of living in Boston. TODAY a group of young, mostly (but not all) European-American people (28, I believe, 18 were arrested) SHUT DOWN business as usual on the highways into Boston in order to call attention to the massive and continued MIS-carriage of justice that happens every day nationally in our court systems, and in the repeated actual murder of African American people (including children!) by the hands of so-called law enforcement officers. THE NEWSMEDIA AND POLITICIANS, INCLUDING OUR progressive Mayor, had A HEYDAY denouncing the action as frivolous and dangerous. A Channel 7 reporter tonight: They had to be cut apart (from the concrete barrels in order to be pulled off the road - paraphrase)...Whats NOT forgotten is the danger the public was put in.... Seriously?! What is more dangerous than being 12 years old and being shot by a policeman in a park in Cleveland because you had a toy (?!) gun and you were Black. - Andrea Doremus Cuetarabostonherald/news_opinion/local_coverage/2015/01/boston_area_highway_blocked_by_protesters
