The Killer Vaccine...

Could There Be More Than 4 Dead In Ohio Though?

How Many More?

The young woman of English nationality was beaten up in the middle of the city, in broad daylight. Nobody lifted a finger to help her.

On a Twitter video relayed by the Info Rodéo media on March 19, a young woman was violently attacked by a group of immigrants in Bordeaux. The facts took place on Thursday, at the corner of rue Chantre, in the heart of the Gironde city. The images show how passers-by quietly continue on their way, while the victim, of English nationality, is beaten by African and Arab men – called either “youths” or “scum” in France to avoid mentioning their ethnicity – who wanted to steal her bag and her phone.

The individuals, some five men, surrounded her and took turns to hit the victim. They did not hesitate to pull her hair and assault her relentlessly. While the woman was on the ground, the attackers forcefully picked her up and punched her in the head. Visibly unsatisfied and even less moved, several of them then lead her a few steps away, behind a wall, where the scene continued outside the field of the camera.

We see the attackers intensifying their assault. On the right, a man runs in to forcefully kick the lower part of the woman’s body. The individuals then begin to discuss their assault, pointing to the body of the young woman on the ground after the extreme violence of the blows. No witness to the scene intervened to assist the victim. She was eventually found in an unconscious state and taken to hospital.

Oakland to Test Socialist Universal Basic Income Program - Racially Excludes White Families From Taking Part

The city of Oakland, California is launching a pilot universal basic income program for 600 low-income families this summer but is excluding poor White families from taking part.

The program is only for "Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC)" who have "low incomes and at least 1 child under 18, regardless of documentation status," East County Today reports.

"The term 'family' is defined broadly to recognize that families come in all shapes and sizes," ECT noted.

From East County Today, "Mayor Schaaf Announces $500 a Month “Guaranteed Income” Pilot for Oakland Resilient Families":

Oakland will host one of the largest guaranteed income pilot projects in the country to give 600 BIPOC families with low-incomes an unconditional $500 per month for at least 18 months.

Oakland Resilient Families is a collaboration between the Oakland-based community organization Family Independence Initiative and the national Mayors for a Guaranteed Income. The project will support 600 Oakland families while building momentum for strategies to eliminate racial disparities in economic stability, mobility, and assets through a guaranteed income.

"The poverty we all witness today is not a personal failure, it is a systems failure," said Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf. "Guaranteed income is one of the most promising tools for systems change, racial equity, and economic mobility we've seen in decades. I'm proud to work with such committed local partners to build a new system that can help undo centuries of economic and racial injustice, and point us all toward a more just society."

[...] "One of my hopes in testing out a guaranteed income is that other cities would follow suit, and I’m thrilled that Oakland is among the first. I applaud Mayor Schaaf's leadership and am looking forward to working with her to move from pilot to policy," said former Stockton Mayor and Founder of Mayors for a Guaranteed Income, Michael Tubbs. "By focusing on BIPOC residents, the Oakland Resilient Families program will provide critical financial support to those hardest hit by systemic inequities, including the pandemic’s disproportionate toll on communities of color."
