Who Killed McDuffie?
In 1979, Arthur McDuffie, a Black man, was riding his motorcycle in Miami when police chased him,
knocked him off his bike, and beat him to death, crushing his head with billyclubs and flashlights.
During the trial that followed, all the police were found not guilty.
The Black community launched a massive rebellion that rocked Miami and sent shock waves throughout the country.

Thank you for telling it like it is. Many Blacks that will bury the past to accommodate the system will also hide the evidence to embrace the illusion of inclusion, and a new beginning. The more things change, the more they remain the same, and being Black in America is a deadly reality.
