| Good news from Ferguson! |
Ferguson, Missouri has been back in the news the last few days because of the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis resemblance to the
murder of Michael Brown in Ferguson in 2014 (at least insofar as they were two black men murdered by two white men because white men basically can). But Ferguson is in the news for a much better reason today: yesterday the city
elected Ella Jones as its first ever black mayor.
The simplest and surest way to assure that black Americans have a seat at the table is to elect black Americans so they can be guaranteed to have a seat at the table. There is most assuredly a long way to go to achieve as many seats as will be necessary, but the results in Ferguson yesterday are an excellent start.
Fuck Donald Trump,
