It's ironic cause this happen where the hub of the domestic Slave Trade took place your policing still has symptoms of The Slave catchers they descend from that used Black codes and Vagrancy laws to harass and Kill Afrikan People! @richmondpolice @nbc12news @8news @cbs6 We Need Answers! __ Black Codes & Vagrancy Laws - Second, vagrancy laws made it a crime to be a certain type of person—anyone who fit the description of one of those colorful Elizabethan characters. Where most American laws required people to do something criminal before they could be arrested, vagrancy laws emphatically did not. _ Armed with this roving license to arrest, officials employed vagrancy laws for a breath-taking array of purposes: to force the local poor to work or suffer for their support; to keep out poor or suspicious strangers; to suppress differences that might be dangerous; to stop crimes before they were committed; to keep racial minorities, political troublemakers, and nonconforming rebels at bay. As these uses suggest, vagrancy laws were linked to a conception of postwar American society—as they had been linked to a conception of sixteenth-century English society—in which everyone had a proper place. The vagrancy law was often the go-to response against anyone who threatened, as many described it during vagrancy laws’ heyday, to move “out of place” socially, culturally, politically, racially, sexually, economically, or spatially. Over time, states and localities deployed and retooled vagrancy laws for use against almost any—real or perceived, old or new—threat to public order and safety. #BlackCodes #RPD #richmondpolicedepartment #VagrancyLaws #CopWatch #BadPolicing #newafrikan77wordpress #RichmondVA #Virginia #policebrutality #804 #RVA #DMV #HakiKweliShakur #Slavery #SaveShockoe #shockoebottom #12 #SlaveTrade #SlaveFugitiveLaws #SlaveFugitiveAct #Crimina

He speaks truth, #kkinte t on City being Cursed. @Regrann from @august_third_napla - K.Kinte @k1kinte of The K.Kinte Shown on Paying Homage to The Ancestors of The Slave Trade and How City Would of Been Cursed if They Would of Built a Sports Stadium in Shockoe Bottom The Epicenter of North Americas's Slave Trade! __ The Cobblestone Streets are reminders of the chains and barefeet the Afrikan Ancestors Walked on Some Bloody , Some Say These Stones Came from European with the Colonialist Settlers , Cobblestone streets led from this "geographical heart of the slave trading district, 1852-1863," with some 50 slave-holding facilities, to fashionable hotels where dealers had offices and buyers rented upstairs rooms, a placard reads. Red flags would be raised over the roof of such fine establishments as the Bell, Exchange and Ballard hotels when an auction was to take place! __ From the 1820s until the war, slaves walked the path in the other direction, from holding facilities in Shockoe Bottom across the river to Manchester docks, as Richmond shipped 'surplus" slaves to markets farther south for resale to the huge sugar and cotton plantations after the tobacco economy hit a slump. By 1859 half a million slaves had been sold from Virginia to the Deep South, with more in 1854 than any other year, as many as 10,000 a month. #TheKKinteShow #newafrikan77wordpress #ShockoeBottom #SaveShockoe #Comcast #Verizon #TVShow #TalkShow #Broadcast #NewYork #Atlanta #Losangeles #Lasvegas #Africa #Benin #RVA #DMV #Virginia #RichmondVA Leearango123 - #regrann @regrann #leearango123shareanythingipost (at The Hammocks, Miami, Florida)
