Charleston church massacre: The violence white America must answer for

Where are the white fathers? When will white leaders step up? Charleston reveals our racial double standard

The historic African-American Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church was assaulted by at least one white gunman on Wednesday evening in Charleston, South Carolina. At least nine people have been confirmed dead.

The story is still developing. At present, Charleston authorities are reporting that this mass shooting and likely right-wing domestic terrorist assault is a hate crime.

While this horrific event is one more murderous and racist blow to the African-American community in Charleston–the killing of Walter Scott by a white thug cop being the most high-profile and recent offense–the reporting on the mass shooting at Emanuel Baptist is an additional affront via the White Racial Frame as practiced by the mainstream news media.

As shown on MSNBC Wednesday night, a local Charleston reporter asked a group of African-American activists, community leaders what the black community could do to prevent events like the mass shooting at Emanuel Baptist. This bizarre moment continued with the reporter seemingly rejecting the obvious–that racism is an obvious element in the white-on-black murders committed at Emanuel Baptist–and doubling down by suggesting that the black community gives comfort to “snitches,” thus wondering if black folks will in fact turn in a white domestic terrorist who had killed at least nine people.

I did not shoot anyone, white or black, I have nothing to answer for. What other people do, white or blavk, they have to answer for

That is the basic responsibility of an adult in the U.S.A. We are all responsible for our own actions. It is a basic rule of law, that is, of course, unless the Courts have ruled someone to be incompetent. ;)
