Karmelo Anthony, a Black teenager, has been sentenced to 35 years in prison after being convicted by a jury with no Black jurors. Whatever one believes about the verdict itself, we cannot ignore the larger truth that many Americans are wrestling with: justice is still being administered through a system with a long history of racial disparity in sentencing and punishment.
This requires more than reaction. It requires moral honesty about who is deemed dangerous, whose pain is centered, and how differently accountability has often been applied in America. If we want justice worthy of its name, it cannot be shaped by race.

Community note
Jury had no Black jurors because qualified Black prospects admitted bias (e.g., couldn’t convict “a brother”) or were struck for race-neutral reasons (educators) upheld by the judge. Conviction based on evidence: Anthony stabbed victim in chest as aggressor.

Hello Cody. Hope you're well. My name is Joel Anderson—native Houstonian, TCU alum, Big 12 enthusiast, player advocate, etc etc—with @ringer Tailgate, the only college football podcast endorsed by @BillSimmons. Please come on with us tomorrow. We'd love to have you.
Not to say that you can’t throw 88 mph & be successful at this level but:
88 at 4 vb with a firm sweeper and a negative vert changeup & elite command is much different than the broad context we’re going to translate this as
End of the day - create a nasty arsenal, execute it
#WestVirginia RHP Chansen Cole didn't throw a single pitch in the upper third of the strike zone.
Instead, a 'pretty boring' kid took a boring approach with a boring 85-88 FB and produced electric results: d1baseball.com/stories/morga…
Under the Trump administration, efforts to address deep-rooted inequities for Black students are being cast as discriminatory against white students apnews.com/article/trump-edu…
Vince Staples explains that while on a major, he was limited in how musically adventurous he could be because they signed him to make hip-hop. This is a hurdle Black acts routinely face when they want to move beyond rap and R&B into pop, rock, or alt.
Lucky enough to be a part of the #CFB27 beta.!believe the hype, the game is night and day different than last year’s. Obviously there are early build bugs that are apparent, but a breath of fresh air to say the very least.
