U.S. GOV’T PROJECTS ITS CRIMINALITY ON VICTIMS

How are criminals dealt with in civilised societies? You could say by the rule of law.

But that’s not the case in the United States, said the late Pan-African scholar Amos Wilson (1941-95). There, the government projects its criminal nature by treating Indigenous peoples and Africans as savages worthy of punishment.

Is this the same treatment being dished out to peaceful pro-Palestine protesters on US university campuses? Authorities now describe these students as ‘criminals.’
