So you are saying, you are the victim Linda Fairstein?

God has a way that’s mighty sweet and I always say you can’t persecute, hurt, oppress or victimize people without the universe taking its shot on you. Malcolm X eloquently coined it as, “the chickens coming home to roost”, while some say it’s the bitch of Karma. I like to use the Bible, and say vengeance is the Lord’s. 

You see in 1989, no one could have imagined, us having a Black President or Oprah not dying with the trends of Sally Jesse Raphael or Donahue but instead becoming a billionaire. No one could imagine, rap sensation Jay Z would join that same billionaire club or that celebrities would pick up the mantel of our oppressive mass incarceration system that disporportiately destroys the lives of young Black and Brown youth. No one could have imagined, a fierce, Black, female sister named Ava DuVernay would pull your card through film Ms. Fairstein. No one could of imagined. This is the very reason we can’t elect Kamala Harris for President, even though she is Black like me Suzy (Imitation of Life). 

Some of you are completely lost by what I’m saying and I say you need to review your history over the last 70 years. Poor distressed damsel, Linda Fairstein, now wants to say the depiction of her in “When They See Us”, was not accurate. But I am here to tell you it was because I was there. I was a 17 year old, loud mouth from NY, who loved  Sister Solijah and Public Enemy. I was there, when they murder Yusuf Hawkins and Amadou Diallo. I was there. I was there for Howard Beach and Tawana Brawley. And I remember you. I remember you calling those children animals. I remember you on channel 7 glorifying the capture of these young innocent children and coining the term “wildin” as something criminal. I was there and now I testify against you.  I remember you co-signing to Trump’s execution ad. I remember how Hillary Clinton jumped on the bandwagon calling the young boys animals too. I was there. 

Me and my friends would take the LIRR up to Queens (Jamaica Avenue) just to get close to the political climate of Harlem. So, lady you’re a liar if you said that wasn’t you in that miniseries because I remember you in action. You acted like Emmit Till’s accuser, Carolyn Bryant, not even seeing these 5 boys were children. 

The jogger, who was victimized jumped on this sensational bandwagon of yours not remembering a thing in court to now publically stating that you didn’t do anything wrong. Buffoonery!!! Please go under a rock like I wish Cosby did when they came for him. Go under a rock before we figure out a way to hold these war crimes against you. 

Sincerely, 

A Sister Who Was There
