A black kid was shot dead by Brazilian police in Rio de Janeiro on thursday. Could you guys fucking pretend you care about anything that does not happen in the US or in the Europe and make this fucking viral????
His name was Eduardo de Jesus Ferreira, he was sit near his house at the Complexo do Alemão, reading, when he was shot dead by a cop that later said he thought the boy was holding a gun (it was in fact a smartphone). Said cop later treatned Eduardo’s mom.
Eduardo was just a boy; he had only a decade of life and probably many dreams that will never come true because he was a poor black kid, standing in the wrong place at the wrong time, and because there is a Black Genocide happening in Brazil for centuries and nobody seems to give a FUCK about it. He was killed; his mom, Terezinha, has lost her son and, as she said, “she wouldn’t care if that cop killed her because he had already ended her life”.
PLESE GUYS… MAKE THIS VIRAL.
PLEASE.
YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND HOW IT IS TO LIVE IN A PLACE WHERE PEOPLE BRUTALLY KILLED EVERYDAY AND THEN FORGOTTEN THREE DAYS LATER, JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE POOR OR BLACK.
There’s a vicious double standard. If you’re an untrained civilian, and you’re approached menacingly by an armed police officer, and you fear for your safety, you’re supposed to remain completely under control, not do anything to make the officer nervous, and not overreact. Especially if said civilian is a black teenager, whose history of treatment by police officers is NOT GOOD, to say the least.
But if you’re a trained, armed police officer, and you fear for your safety, you have license to overreact and shoot anything that moves.
How is it that we expect higher standards of untrained civilians than we do of trained, armed police officers?
