My belated father and I have seen the court-martial of Jackie Robinson on TV 30 years ago.
I did not know that college educated Jackie Robinson went to heavyweight boxer Joe Lewis to pull strings to get him into Officer Candidate School since the redneck and racist good old boys didn't think black soldiers had leadership qualities.
It's great that the defense for Jackie Robinson was able to prove that soldiers lied and called him the n-word and that's why he threatened the military police.
He was a good officer wouldn't take crap from anybody in the Jim Crow South especially when he knew the Jim Crow segregation rules didn't apply to buses on military bases.
He was eventually found not guilty on all charges.
He actually played in Canada for a minor league team before going to the Dodgers.

I recently watched the Jackie Robinson story on Netflix. It showed the bullshit that he had to put up from racist southern peckerwood whites. I grew up here in Nebraska with good parents and am not racist. I have more issues with white people than with black people

While you're virtue signaling (unconvincingly), isn't Kansas next to Nebraska? Aren't black ghettos alive today in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and Oakland to name a few, and worse off today than they were during Jackie Robinson's time? Isn't it true that Sammy Davis Jr had to stay in different hotels than the rest of the Rat Pack while I. Las Vegas, Hollywood and Los Angeles? During the Great Negro Diaspora following WWI, did you ever wonder why only about a half of all African Americans moved out of the south. If you grew up in a throughly integrated Nebraska with good parents, how did you personally come to know so much about "racist southern peckerwood whites" apparently having "not good parents"? How does uttering a phrase like that show your moral superiority over the buss driver enforcing seating.

CWO4 Terrence Clark I think he doesn't realize that a black person doesn't really have to worry about Peckerhead White's, but about his own race killing him. Blacks killing blacks that's why black lives matter doesn't want to talk about it because if so common.
Even though the study is from the 80s, I'm sure it hasn't changed that much.
If anything, police brutality was probably worse in the late 70s and early 80s but the left doesn't want to discuss that. They probably want to portray all police as Illinois Nazis that way they can push this leftist agenda of the carceral state. We've already seen the leftist agenda of going soft on crime and forgetting about the victims that's why you're having recalls being successful in San Francisco and a second recall against district attorney Gascon.
Racist whites to exist but I think black on black crime is a higher chance of murder than being brutalized, maimed or killed by police.
I am sure rabid zombie Angry Joy Reid from MSNBC does not like this extract because it doesn't play into her Narrative of police of all Races treating black people. I believe the margin of this happening is very low.
