The country has seen revelations about off-books police interrogation warehouses in the past.

A new lawsuit filed in federal court last month alleges that the Baton Rouge Police Department ran a “torture warehouse” where members of its Street Crimes Unit strip searched, beat, and otherwise humiliated people and then released them, often without their being charged with a crime. Soon after the lawsuit was filed, the FBI opened a civil rights investigation into the allegations of misconduct at the now-shuttered warehouse known as “the BRAVE Cave.”

    Having lived there for 10 years, I can attest that BRPD are some of the fattest, grimiest pigs in the game. I would be surprised if several of them aren’t proudly decended from long inbred pedigrees right back to the slave catcher days.

    This whole racist state needs Reconstruction 2.0: tear down all this white supremacist infrastructure and get the people back in charge of their lives.

      It’s incredibly sad but for a lot of, if not all, black folk in South, reconstruction was the last time they got a fair shot at effecting actual change in their state governments.

        This is the whitest thing I have read on the internet in a long time.
