Michael Eric Dyson and Giuliani Argue Over Violence in Black Communities

“Mayor Giuliani speaks about what's, you know, unconscionable and what should be indicted. What should be indicted is the criminal justice system that continues to impose undue burdens on African American, Latino, and other poor people,” Dyson explained.

Giuliani disagreed, saying people aren’t focused on the reason behind the heavy police presence seen in black communities. “We are talking about the significant exception, 93% of blacks are killed by other blacks,” Giuliani argued.

Dyson called that a false equivalency, saying police officers are agents of the state sworn to uphold the law. “Black people who kill black people go to jail. White people who are policemen who kill black people do not go to jail,” Dyson responded. “If a jury can indict a ham sandwich, why is it taking so long?”

“Look at this! This is the defensive mechanism of white supremacy in your mind sir!” Dyson concluded.



Michael Eric Dyson, Good for you!!!

Michael Eric Dyson exposes Giuliani: It’s ‘the defense mechanism of white supremacy in your mind’
Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani (R) is more focused on “black on black” crimes than police violence against African-Americans because of the “defense mechanism of white supremacy at work” in his mind, according to Georgetown professor Michael Eric Dyson.

Claiming white cops wouldn't be there if black people weren't killing each other!

That's classic "white man's burden" shit too. Rudy might as well claim the WHITE COPS are ZOO KEEPERS.

need their excuses to keep executing black people without 'due process'. I like the one that says a majority of white murders(homicides) are done by whites and the same on into all racial classifications. These people and their black on black bullshit. Disgustingly obvious and transparent. Has been used to murder and execute for quite a few generations now. Got their bullshit line honed to a fine art of lying and obfuscation.

Leave it to him to take the police's side on this too- I seem to remember several very high-profile cases during his administration where unarmed black men were shot 20+ times (in 40+ shots) by white cops. So Giuliasshole is going to explain how ghetto crime works to black people. What a tool.

How dare G equate murder by peers who are sent to jail, and killings by those the state has entrusted with our public safety.
