Baltimore has a black mayor. And black police chief. And a majority black police department.

How the hell can we admonish ferguson voters for not electing black local government officials when it doesn't seem to matter? The institutional racism is present no matter what, even with black local government.

That's what institutional racism means.

Black gangs in Baltimore unite against police violence

Really?? How many thousands more young black lives have these gangs snuffed out than have ever been killed by the police? And NOW they're upset? And NOW #blacklivesmatter ?
