“In 1990, when we started the Black Community Crusade for Children, we were always talking about all children, but we paid particular attention to children who were not white, who were poor, who were disabled, and who were the most vulnerable.Parents didn't think their children would live to adulthood, and the children didn't think they were going to live to adulthood. That's when we started our first gun-violence campaign. We've lost 17 times more young black people to gun violence since 1968 than we lost in all the lynching in slavery.” PeopleThinkingFirstsChildrenYoungLostParentBlackCommunityWhitePoorAttentionTalkingViolenceParticularGunPaidSlaveryCampaignsVulnerableBlack PeopleAdulthoodDisabledCrusadesGun ViolenceLynchingBlack Community Author:Marian Wright Edelman

“The U.S. directed the war against South Vietnam. There was a political settlement in 1954. But in the late '50's the United States organized an internal repression in South Vietnam, not using its troops, but using the local apparatus it was constructing. This was a very significant and very effective campaign of violence and terrorism against the Vietminh - which was the communist-led nationalist force that fought the French. And the Vietminh at that time was adhering to the Geneva Accords, hoping that the political settlement would work out in South Vietnam.” WarStatesPoliticalForceUnitedUnited StatesViolenceLateSouthWork OutTerrorismCampaignsSignificantLocalsOrganizedInternalsCommunistVietnamTroopsAccordRepressionSettlementGeneva Author:Noam Chomsky
