The University of Alabama announced that it has authorized the removal of three Confederate plaques from their current campus locations.

Black man heard saying "I can't breathe" multiple times during fatal arrest in Texas, body camera video showsBody camera footage of a black man's arrest in Austin, Texas, where he says"I can't breathe" multiple times is under investigation.

In body camera video released Monday by the Austin Police Department, Williamson County Sheriff's Office deputies were shown pursuing Javier Ambler, 40, just after 1 a.m. on March 28, 2019.Ambler failed to dim his car's headlights as he drove past a deputy, according to a sheriff's department incident report. Ambler then tried to flee, leading officers on a 22-minute pursuit that ended up in the city of Austin, the report says.

The 14-minute body camera footage captured the moment the deputies stopped their vehicles, and when they started walking toward Ambler. Officers tried to handcuff Ambler, but said he resisted and pushed back on the officers as he refused to follow the verbal commands, according to Williamson County Sheriff's Office case report. Ambler is seen in distress. As they handcuff him, he is heard saying"I have congestive heart failure."The Travis County District Attorney is leading an investigation into the deadly arrest.

"We have determined that we need to take it to a grand jury," District Attorney Margaret Moore said, adding that officials with the Williamson County Sheriff's Office have not been cooperative."This case has been so unusual. It is not typical for us to encounter obstacles to getting evidence especially from another law enforcement agency."

Jesus christ i wish jimmy carter was healthy enough for a second term. At least there would be honesty in the white house

For the final time The democratic party of the 1860's is not the same as today as they switched platforms with the republicans in the 1960s. We need to stop seeing racism as a political party issue and a societial one in which everyone is somewhat responsible.
