They welcome the presence of police in buildings where they fear for their safety. A grand jury convened and declined to indict the white cop with 11 years of experience on any charges. They exchanged numbers. While it is true that the “justice” system is made to favor white men, the arguments being used to make that point rely on anti-Black racism and work to legitimize police violence toward and murder of Black people as acceptable. After he was sentenced, Gurley continued to advocate for himself from behind bars. In the past 15 years, federal financing for New York public housing has shrunk dramatically, from $419 million in 2001 to $294 million in 2014. Liang is among the 75 percent of police officers who are able to walk out ofthe courtroom after being charged with gun-related crimes. Landau testified that he never even read his CPR textbooks during his training at the Police Academy, was fed answers to his exams on the subject. "The Police Department must deal with its training, must deal with its procedures," he said. Butler lived on the seventh floor of an eight-story apartment building in the Pink Houses, one of the many sprawling projects in Brooklyn’s East New York neighborhood. But the bullet had already torn through his body, fractured his third rib, nicked his sternum, and pierced both his heart and diaphragm, the medical examiner would later conclude. Those are deliberate policy choices. Policing is a social control technique, and in America the institution of the police has been formidably shaped throughthe relational power dynamics that exist through and because of settler colonialism and chattel slavery. He was a high school dropout and had little support. “I’d say ‘no’ and he’d say ‘yes,’” Ballinger remembered. (It’s not cool) Our girls are 2 smart for the gutter they deserve better than what we both been through.”, When he was released in October 2014, Gurley vowed never to return. Palmer said he’d sit down for an interview, but he could make no promises about his wife. While it is true that Asian-American peoples need anddeserve access to culturally specific support and resources to respond to violence that occurs within our communities, we must reject, not embrace, participation in policing structures which function to protect and maintain occupation by continuously policing, monitoring, and controlling Black and Indigenous peoples through violence and death. At one point, a group of demonstrators unfurled a banner that read — "IF THE KILLER COP WALKS AMERIKKKA HALTS!". The Palmers met their grandchildren for the first time at Gurley’s funeral. Because Chinese and other Asian peoples have historically been constructed in the American imagination and mythos as “unassimilable,” starting up a career in law enforcement or military service assists in assimilation into white power structures by demonstrating commitment to protecting and upholding the settler colonial nation state. Not connecting the dots, aversion to critical thought, intentional historical revisionism, and whitewashing are all required in order for assimilation of non-white groups into colonial power structures to take place. When we thoroughly interrogate the nuances of this case and contextualize them through a historical lens, it becomes alarmingly clear that Liang’s Chinese and other Asian supporters have utilized rhetoric that is anti-Black – whether consciously or not. America’s existence as a settler colonial nation dependent on systemic anti-Blackness and with a history and legacy of chattel slavery has given rise to very specific and complex race dynamics which are continuously and purposefully obscured, convoluted, and manipulated in order to maintain both white supremacy and colonial occupation. This is evident in both the widespread support he has received, as well as the violent backlash from Liang’s supporters that has been wielded at CAAAV (an Asian community organization) members and other Asian people who have provided crucial support for the Gurley family. Butler tipped his head back, she pinched his nose, she gave her breath to him. His life matters.”, When I visited Ballinger this past fall, conversation eventually turned to Officer Peter Liang. The shotgun houses were mostly gray, beige, or brown. He said neither he nor Liang called to report an accidental discharge or alert their sergeant; instead, Liang repeated over and over again that he would be fired. He wanted to leave the streets alone and all that.”. Bill O’Reilly, the infamously bigoted right-wing pundit for Fox News, used it in a long-winded rant entitled “The Truth About White Privilege,” in which he tried to argue that white people are not structurally advantaged in comparison to non-white groups of people. (Stansbury’s two friends who witnessed the shooting told law enforcement officials that Stansbury hadn’t yet touched the door.) Until the mid-’90s, public housing had its own police force; a 1995 merger folded the NYCHA force into the NYPD. (The NYPD declined to comment for this story, citing ongoing litigation.) Recently, Bill Maher, white left-wing liberal and host of the late night television show “Real Time With Bill Maher,” made a ridiculously racist assessment in reference to lash back from Black people about Hollywood’s overwhelming whiteness and anti-Blackness. Hoeflinger has had 12 civil rights cases filed against him in the past five years, accusing him of falsely arresting and imprisoning individuals, using unreasonable and excessive force, and conspiring with other officers to create fake drug charges. Like cops, Rah wears a badge and carries handcuffs, but his shirt is light blue instead of navy, and he doesn’t have a gun. These frameworks erase and obscure the brutal and grotesque histories that have created structural inequalities specifically targeting and affecting Black people, in ways that non-Black people do not equally experience. Ballinger told Kamiya and Akaila. The ways in which this case has been portrayed is informed by white supremacist settler colonial frameworks. No, he’s not with me, Gizz texted back. These types of legislation are aimed at denying Black people civic equality and preventing them from accessing critical infrastructural resources. But that’s the thing with cops: People never feel like you’re there when they need you.”, I asked Campbell why NYPD officers so frequently perform vertical patrols with guns out. The model minority myth flattens vastly different Asian ethnicities, painting Asians as a monolithic group of “good” non-whites able to rise above unfair and strenuous conditions to be held up as an exemplary group of minorities in the US.
