Neanche un anno dopo la sanguinosa guerra di occupazione dell’Etiopia che Mussolini pomposamente definiva «conquista dell’Impero», gli invasori italiani erano ancora in pochi, e non dormivano bene. Militari e camicie nere, insieme alle «truppe indigene» arruolate in colonia, non avevano mai smesso di combattere e percorrevano in lungo e in largo il vasto entroterra alla caccia delle formazioni resistenti etiopiche ancora in armi. Gli altri, civili o in camicia nera, erano per lo più asserragliati nelle città, e ascoltavano con apprensione le notizie di «bande ribelli» pericolosamente vicine. La repressione della resistenza – eufemisticamente definita «grande polizia coloniale» ma in realtà fatta di uccisioni, villaggi bruciati e raccolti distrutti – dopo molti mesi pareva tuttavia aver dato i suoi frutti: molte formazioni erano state disarmate; i loro capi e componenti eliminati o deportati nel  terribile campo di internamento di Danane, in Somalia. 

Il neonato impero fascista pareva insomma sulla via di una lenta normalizzazione, quando gli occupanti ebbero un brusco risveglio. Il 19 febbraio 1937, Yekatit 12 secondo il calendario etiopico, Rodolfo Graziani, viceré d’Etiopia e governatore generale dell’Africa Orientale Italiana, era su un palco nella capitale Addis Abeba, nel pieno svolgimento di una cerimonia pubblica, quando due patrioti di origine eritrea, Mogus Asghedom e Abraham Debotch, lanciarono nella sua direzione alcune bombe a mano che uccisero sette persone e ne ferirono molte altre. Tra queste lo stesso Graziani, che venne portato via d’urgenza. Da parte italiana l’attentato produsse panico, vuoto di potere, confusione nella catena di comando, volontà di vendetta esemplare frammista alla necessità di riaffermare il prima possibile e senza dubbi l’autorità italiana. Conseguenza di tutto questo fu un massacro difficile da descrivere.

Nei momenti subito successivi al fatto, le truppe italiane presenti sul posto presero a sparare indiscriminatamente sulla folla. Fuori città, le truppe nei presidi ricevevano l’ordine di iniziare una marcia concentrica verso Addis Abeba sparando a vista a chiunque incontrassero e dando fuoco alle abitazioni etiopiche. Una camicia nera, in una lettera spedita il 30 aprile, raccontò così quella marcia: 

Stupiti, partimmo anche noi dal nostro fortino, in pieno assetto di guerra, e seguiti da carri armati e motociclette con mitragliatrici: e percorremmo diecine [sic] di chilometri, sparando su qualunque individuo di colore che incontravamo, e massacrando, nelle stesse loro capanne, tutti gli indigeni che si trovavano sul nostro cammino. 

Giunti alla periferia della città, di fronte agli agglomerati di tucul – piccoli edifici di abitazione – al cui interno si erano chiusi gli etiopici, 

siccome non potevamo colpirli tutti a fucilate, i nostri ufficiali fecero mettere in azione i lancia-fiamme: così in dieci minuti facemmo divampare, come roghi, centinaia e centinaia di tuculs, nei quali c’erano donne, vecchi e bambini, che furono abbrustoliti…

Frattanto nella città, la massima autorità politica rimasta, il segretario federale del Partito nazionale fascista Guido Cortese, ordinò la rappresaglia sguinzagliando, letteralmente, la popolazione italiana. Operai, camionisti, civili e camicie nere, avuta carta bianca dal Partito, per tre giorni trasformarono la città in un girone infernale in un’orgia di brutalità che ha pochi paragoni nella storia del colonialismo europeo. 

I diplomatici stranieri ce ne danno una testimonianza vivida nelle allucinate missive che spedivano nelle rispettive capitali. Il rappresentante statunitense Cornelius Engert il primo giorno della strage telegrafava a Washington: 

I nativi sono stati picchiati e mitragliati indiscriminatamente e le loro capanne sono state bruciate. Bombe incendiarie sono state sganciate da aerei operanti nelle periferie della città, e attualmente si sente in tutta la città una buona dose di colpi di fucile e anche di cannone da campo. Le strade sono state ripulite dagli indigeni e tutti gli italiani, compresi gli operai civili, girano pesantemente armati. 

E il giorno seguente aggiunse: 

Dal momento dell’incidente, bande disordinate di lavoratori e camicie nere armati di asce, mazze o fucili hanno vagato per le strade e, con rivoltante ferocia, hanno ucciso tutti i nativi in vista, anche le donne. 

Il diplomatico francese Albert Bodard lo definì un pogrom, riferendo che 

I cadaveri sono così numerosi che non si possono eseguire degne sepolture; i corpi vengono ammucchiati e cremati sul posto dopo essere stati cosparsi di benzina. Interi quartieri di tucul abissini furono dati alle fiamme con lanciafiamme e bombe a mano. In vari casi gli occupanti indigeni, impossibilitati a fuggire, venivano bruciati vivi nelle loro abitazioni. Ogni notte, la città è circondata dalle fiamme. […] regna una grande confusione in cui camicie nere, truppe, e operai militarizzati sembrano lasciati liberi di agire a loro piacimento. 

ancora: 

Anche i camionisti inseguivano gli abissini con le loro vetture, o le lanciavano ferocemente contro i nativi per schiacciarli. Quando le vittime esitavano a morire, i manganelli aprivano i loro crani e riportavano alla ragione i recalcitranti. 

Simile il racconto dei testimoni britannici:

Per due giorni e mezzo gli etiopi, ovunque si trovassero e qualsiasi cosa facessero, furono braccati, picchiati, fucilati, trafitti con le baionette o bastonati a morte. Le loro case sono state bruciate e in alcuni casi loro stessi sono stati respinti tra le fiamme per morire bruciati. Con questo massacro furono combinati bottino e saccheggio. I seguenti incidenti che sono riferiti da testimoni affidabili illustrano bene la condotta degli italiani. Una banda di otto camicie nere è stata vista picchiare con bastoni, apparentemente a morte, un etiope le cui mani erano state prima legate dietro la schiena. […] Un colonnello italiano ha fermato la sua macchina in una strada principale per buttare giù un gruppo di tre etiopi, un uomo e due donne. Dopo aver picchiato l’uomo si è scagliato contro la donna, ma notando l’auto di una Legazione straniera lì vicino ha desistito. […] Forse uno dei motivi principali dietro l’azione degli italiani era quello della paura, poiché in nessun momento dalla loro occupazione si sono sentiti sicuri.

Dopo tre giorni, quando giunse infine l’ordine di cessare le violenze, il bilancio delle vittime fu spaventoso: circa tremila morti, ma i calcoli più recenti effettuati da Ian Campbell hanno stimato un numero sei volte superiore, forse vicino alle ventimila persone.

Unveiling the Mystery: Who Inherited Nipsey Hussle's $8 Million Fortune?

Nipsey Hussle, born Ermias Joseph Asghedom, was a celebrated rapper, activist, entrepreneur, and philanthropist who passed away tragically on March 31, 2019. His sudden death left fans and supporters devastated, and many were curious about who would inherit his fortune. Nipsey Hussle had made a significant impact on the music industry and the community, and his wealth was a reflection of his hard work and dedication to his craft.

At the time of his death, Nipsey Hussle's estimated net worth was around $8 million. However, it is unclear who inherited his money. The rapper was survived by his two children, Emani and Kross, his brother Samiel Asghedom, and his parents, Angelique Smith and Dawit Asghedom.

After Nipsey's death, his family and friends created the Nipsey Hussle Estate to manage his assets and finances. The estate is overseen by his brother, Samiel Asghedom, and his mother, Angelique Smith. The estate is responsible for managing Nipsey's music catalog, merchandise sales, and other business ventures.

Although the details of Nipsey Hussle's will have not been made public, it is likely that his children, Emani and Kross, are the primary beneficiaries of his estate. Under California law, if someone dies without a will, their assets are divided among their surviving spouse and children. However, Nipsey Hussle was not married at the time of his death, which means that his assets would be divided equally among his children.

Emani, Nipsey's daughter, was born in 2008 to his ex-girlfriend Tanisha Asghedom. Nipsey and Tanisha had a tumultuous relationship, and Nipsey had custody of Emani at the time of his death. Kross, Nipsey's son, was born in 2016 to his longtime girlfriend, Lauren London. Nipsey and Lauren had been together for several years before his untimely death and were reportedly engaged.

Nipsey Hussle was known for his philanthropic work and his commitment to giving back to the community.

Nipsey's death was a tremendous loss for the hip-hop community and the world at large. However, his legacy continues to inspire and empower people around the globe. His family and friends have worked tirelessly to honor his memory and continue his work. In addition to managing his estate, they have also established the Nipsey Hussle Foundation, which provides opportunities for young people in underserved communities to pursue their dreams.

In conclusion, while the details of Nipsey Hussle's will have not been made public, it is likely that his children, Emani and Kross, are the primary beneficiaries of his estate. Nipsey Hussle was a beloved rapper, activist, entrepreneur, and philanthropist who made a significant impact on the music industry and the community. His legacy continues to inspire and empower people around the world, and his family and friends are committed to carrying on his work and honoring his memory.

Family home feels emptier after woman killed in east Oak Cliff

Rosaland Smith’s small, three-bedroom house in east Oak Cliff has a neat garden and a bright blue porch.

It’s been in the family for about half a century, and it’s where everyone comes to eat, talk and enjoy themselves.

homicides in 2024 to show the toll of violent crime in Dallas.

246 lives last year.

For the past few months, it’s been missing someone.

Shaketta Johnson, Rosaland’s niece, grew up in the home and used to fill the space with her laughter.

There wasn’t a day Shaketta, 30, didn’t come by for a visit, Rosaland said. She misses seeing her around the house or getting her phone calls at night.

“That’s what brought us our unity,” Rosaland, 57, said.

Shaketta was shot in her car April 13 at Glendale Shopping Center in east Oak Cliff.

According to police, two men fired multiple times and fled.

Keylan Bowens, 18, faces a murder charge in connection to the death.

Police are still looking for another suspect.

Shaketta’s family said she was first struck in the shoulder, but got out of the car and laid down in the parking lot.

That’s when the family says one of the men shot her in the head.

According to Rosaland, Shaketta was on the ground for a long time before anyone called police.

“She died alone,” Rosaland said.

“They left her for dead … that hurt me so bad, because I’m her protector, and I couldn’t protect her.”

Shaketta was 16 when she had her daughter, who is 14 years old.

Robin Strange, Shaketta’s mom, said the two were like sisters.

They loved to get food together and get their hair done, Shaketta’s sister, Kaleesha, said.

Shaketta wore her long, natural hair in twists, and would take her daughter to get hers braided.

“That was their thing,” Kaleesha said.

“Her baby came first.”

Shaketta’s family said she loved to eat and cook for others and had dreams of owning her own food truck.

Among her favorites were ribeye steak, lobster, chicken and dumplings, and barbecue.

“To be so small, she loved to eat,” Kaleesha said. Shaketta was about 5 feet, 4 inches.

Rosaland loved Shaketta’s homemade, fruit-infused drinks.

The last one she made is in Rosaland’s fridge, sealed in a jar.

Shaketta had many nicknames.

To her grandmother, she was “Poopie.”

To her stepgrandfather, she was “Mommy, because she was so bossy,” Robin said. Rosaland called her

“Nay.” Robin calls her “my baby.”

Rosaland’s husband called her “Slow Motion,” because she was known for talking and moving slowly. Many knew her as “Star.”

“It fit her well, because anywhere she went, she shined,” Kaleesha said.

Shaketta’s dad, James Johnson, remembers his last visit to Shaketta’s apartment before she died.

She asked him if he wanted a snow cone from a passing truck.

He said no.

“She came back and stuck one in my hand,” he said. It was strawberry red. “That was the last time I saw her alive. That sticks with me all the time.”
