TV Host Melissa Harris-Perry's touching Tribute To Black Men Killed By Police

In a short but powerful segment this past Saturday, TV Host Melissa Harris-Perry connected the recent police killing of 18 yr old Michael Brown (an unarmed black man shot 6 times in Fergusson, Missouri) to the deaths of other black men at the hands of police — and to America's history of injustice towards black people.

She noted that Ferguson, where Brown was shot dead, is close to the place from which the slave Dred Scott waged a legal battle for his freedom. She quoted from the notorious Supreme Court case which rejected Scott's claim because, in the infamous words of Chief Justice Roger Taney, he had "no rights which the white man was bound to respect."

My heartfelt thoughts to the family of Michael Brown and to the 'citizens' of Fergusson, Missouri, Please STOP the looting and lawlessness. There are other measures in which we can all fight intelligently to put an end to this Injustice.
