Xzavier Hill, 18

UPDATE: ‘My baby is in a box. They shot him 3 times.’; Mother of 18-year-old killed by state troopers continues fight for justice | 8News (wric.com)

18year old Xzavier Hill was killed on January 9, 2021. His hands were up when he was executed by Virginia State Police.

This is very hard to watch, but please look at this video of his mother, his anguished mother, reporting on what she saw on the Virginia State Police dashcam footage. I believe Xzavier’s mother. Decades ago I might have assumed (because of my brainwashing) that the police are trying to do their best. I have been rescued from “the Sunken Place” and now understand that the police are infiltrated by white supremacists and their sympathizers. They’ve been brutalizing my people since the Jim Crow era, since the slave catchers snatched us, raped us, tortured us, trafficked us back to our death camps. And now they’ve attacked our nation’s citadel of democracy, the U.S. Capitol.

Racism is not getting worse - it’s getting filmed.
