Gun Control and White Supremacy

The reason why the U.S. has so many shootings and violent gun deaths is because the U.S. allows it to happen.

Gun control has been so muddled and stymied because white people in power always choose white supremacy and capitalism.

Historically, white people in power have wanted to arm themselves and not anyone else. You see this play out historically in the way laws were created to keep enslaved Black folks from owning weapons, for example.

And just like the prison industry, corporations and politicians profit from the weapons industry.

White supremacy is always lethal and fatal. And the very tools that we can use to dismantle it, are the ones that legislators are trying to ban and keep out of the conversation. See how that works?
