Y’all be calling on Black gangs to “step up” and battle the police whenever Black communities are in crisis. But when it comes to a place like Gary, Indiana, why aren’t y’all calling on the Black professional class, Boule organizations, fraternities, sororities, churches, HBCUs, and Black business networks to mobilize? Why is the expectation always that the people with the least institutional power should put themselves on the line, while the people with money, connections, degrees, organizations, and political access get left out of the conversation? If we’re serious about Black self-determination, then everybody needs to be asked what they’re actually bringing to the table—not just the people you already expect to sacrifice.
