Everyone's talking about violence. But who is violent?

November 25, 2014 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us

 

Is it the lords and enforcers of a system that violently locks tens of millions of people into ghettos and barrios...

shoving their children into rotten schools...

putting them in falling-down houses, just a paycheck away from homelessness...

surrounding them with a culture that degrades and brutalizes and reduces everyone to money...

chaining them into prisons by the millions, generation after generation, in a system designed to put them there...

and enforcing all this with police who are programmed to see them as just so many targets, just so many "hulks," who must be harassed, insulted, degraded, brutalized and even killed?

Or is it the people who finally stand up and rise up against that oppression?
