Mike brown was lied on, 64,000 black women are missing, and black children’s organs are being harvested for profit,, like literally fuck anyone who judges us for “making it about race” bc the system makes it a about race all the time when they constantly degrade us to the point of danger and death

Tf is this black organ “black” (punintended) market you’re talking about?

Illegal organ harvesting amongst the black community is definitely not a new issue, it’s just an issue that is being silenced. 

So about 123,000 people in America are on a waiting list for an organ transplant. Only 30,000 people are actually provided with new organs.

Everyday, 21 people die from lack of organ resources.

This is obviously a huge problem, but instead of fixing it the right way, the system finds a way to fix it the illegal way. More than 16,000 families have claimed that organs from their deceased/kidnapped loved ones have been illegally harvested for profit. These body parts are being sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars. 

But that’s not the worst part, people are literally murdered for their body parts, and this is where race kicks in. Vance Anderson (BLACK) died in 2012 from lung complications. He was 51 years old. When his mom claimed his body for time of burial, his eyes, heart, brain, and pancreas were removed. They tried to cover it up by saying the organs were donated, but neither Anderson or his family previously granted permission to “donate” body parts.  

Another case- 17 year old Kendrick Johnson (BLACK) was found dead inside of a wrestling mat at his school. Unfortunately, no charges were filed against the suspects, when it was pretty obvious this was a murder. But when Johnson’s family was given a second autopsy, and discovered his internal organs, brains, lungs, and liver were missing. FILLED WITH NEWSPAPER. 

ANOTHER case- 24 year old Ryan Singleton (BLACK) was found dead in a valley with multiple organs removed. He was an aspiring model and actor in California. How he died is still a “mystery” to this day…. but what we do know is that the rest of his body remained intact despite his eyes, hearts, lungs, liver being removed. The investigators brushed the case off an an “animal attack”. 

ANOTHER case- 14 year old Jason Smith (BLACK) was found dead in a body of water. The police ruled it as a “drowning”, but of course, his organs were missing. 

The World Health Organization estimates that a human organ is illegally sold every single hour. Illegal organ harvesting brings in about $1 billion dollars every year.  No one seems to catch who’s doing this, and the police don’t seem to care about digging deeper in these cases. The black community is a target when it comes to organ harvesting, but other people can be victims too. Organ harvesting is real, and we should not let it go unnoticed.

I think that we’re under this constant pressure to achieve success in our twenties because, as women, our youth is seen as our prime but there are so many women who go on to do great things later in life like Ava DuVernay didn’t pick up a camera until she was 33 and now she’s in her 40s and her career is just beginning her next feature film has a budget of over $100 million

also me: i crave validation… diagnose me… ur opinion is the only one that matters
