Boycott Uhuru Furniture

Fuck these people. You read this and tell me if this is a cause you want to support.

In part:

The Uhuru Movement does not support the loss of life of any person. But the loss of life at the hands of the police in the African community of Oakland has been going on for half a century.

The “tensions” in Oakland are caused by the police, not by an impoverished community struggling to survive.

Is that right? Why don't we excuse pieces of filth like Mixon some more by ringing the poverty bell?

Lovelle Mixon’s life, like that of thousands of young African men in the impoverished neighborhoods of Oakland, was over long before he was killed by police. He faced a hopeless dead end of joblessness, poverty and criminalization by a society that would rather lock up young African men than make college or jobs available to them.

So you stick an AK-47 in the SWAT team's face? This is the answer to your dead-end life? This is how you solve your life's problems?

We have to demand a policy of genuine economic development for the African community's development that truly benefits and uplifts the deeply impoverished African working class of this city, and is not just another cover for gentrification and dispersal of the oppressed.

We appreciate your continued support of the Uhuru Movement and urge you to take an active stand in transforming Oakland into a model city of shared prosperity and true social justice.

And you do this by upholding a rapist and murderer as a hero and a symbol of the fallen "African" community. You dumb-ass motherfuckers. I hope your store not only closes, but that it burns.
