When you get a milkshake, there are different flavors. You can do a lot of things with it other than drink it. You can throw it, pour it, shoot it, beat it, hang it in a tree. But it never stops being a milkshake.
#lynchings never stopped. Sometimes they just switch up the flavor. Sometimes not.
It's September 2025, and two Black men were lynched in Mississippi on Monday the 15th.
Cops may rule these suicide, as they've done in the past when Black men are found hanging from trees in the state, but given Mississippi's own history, the state of the U.S. today, and the fact that cops lie every time they say or write anything, I'm betting it's lynchings.

#Florida students are giving up Saturdays to learn #BlackHistory lessons their schools don’t teach

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — "Buried among Florida’s manicured golf courses and sprawling suburbs are the artifacts of its slave-holding past: the long-lost cemeteries of enslaved people, the statutes of #Confederate soldiers that still stand watch over town squares, the old #plantations turned into modern subdivisions that bear the same name. But many students aren’t learning that kind of Black history in Florida classrooms.
"In an old wooden bungalow in Delray Beach, Charlene Farrington and her staff gather groups of teenagers on Saturday mornings to teach them lessons she worries that public schools won’t provide. They talk about #SouthFlorida’s #Caribbean roots, the state’s dark history of #lynchings, how #segregation still shapes the landscape and how #grassroots #activists mobilized the #CivilRights Movement to upend generations of oppression.

"When Sulaya Williams’ eldest child started school, she couldn’t find the comprehensive instruction she wanted for him in their area. So in 2016, she launched her own organization to teach Black history in community settings.
"'We wanted to make sure that our children knew our stories, to be able to pass down to their children,' Williams said.
"Williams now has a contract to teach Saturday school at a public #library in Fort Lauderdale, and her 12-year-old daughter Addah Gordon invites her classmates to join her.
"'It feels like I’m really learning my culture. Like I’m learning what my ancestors did,' Addah said. 'And most people don’t know what they did.'"

Thirty years after Florida required schools to teach African American history, how the subject is taught remains inconsistent across Florida classrooms, a review by The Associated Press has found. In the eyes of some advocates, Black history instruction in public schools is inadequate and under fire by the administration of Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis, who has championed efforts to restrict how race, history and discrimination can be talked about in the state’s public schools. That's pushing churches and community groups to take up the mantle of teaching Black history, which some families no longer trust the state’s education system to do.
It sounds like the coming administration wants to bring back lynching.
From the article:
Congressman-elect Brandon Gill (R-TX) on Sunday opened his remarks at the New York Young Republican Club annual gala w/ praise for Daniel Penny, who was found not guilty last week in the death of Jordan Neely on the New York subway. America needs “a lot more Daniel Pennys [...], “because we have far too may Jordan Neelys.”
