WASHINGTON, D.C. — With the nation’s capital city witnessing a high usage rate of racial profiling phone apps, such as SketchFactor and participating in online platforms like Operation GroupMe, it comes as no surprise that innocent Melanoid civilians in D.C. are subject to harassment and danger by members of the dominant society.
Earlier this week, 18-year-old Jason Goolsby and his friend–both students of Howard University–were just hanging out near an ATM when police approached them under the guise of Goolsby and his friend having met the descriptions of being “suspicious”. According to the cops, this “suspicious” person in question had allegedly been seen in the same area by (bank) customers who complained of being “uncomfortable”; with the possible intent on robbing people.
The Metro Police (in D.C.) reports read that three individuals were approached by the cops, and one ran away, which resulted in a chase. Here’s what the report read:
“The individual resisted, and was handcuffed while resisting after he refused to stop,” the report stated. “The person making the video was interfering with police, and was also detained while the incident was investigated.’
Goolsby, whose Twitter account is @darealbighomiee, tweeted the following video that recorded the police harassment:
Today we we're harassed and assaulted because " someone felt uncomfortable around us " in a bank . RETWEET ‼️ pic.twitter.com/E2XZaOgJgM

After seeing this incident unfold, it becomes much clearer as to why these phone apps are extremely popular among white supremacists in the D.C. area. One way that we as Melanoid people can counter this harassment is for us to also download these apps, and report suspicious–and potentially threatening–behavior coming from suspects and predators of the dominant society.
Here is a link to the Jason Goolsby story.
Shit like this just make me so depressed.
until we start to have the heart to fight back (eg. physically, financially, etc…)the depression will continue…
Unfortunately,dj,most of us are too damn scared. I am not,as i’m sure you and the real black/melanoid/african descent people are not. But we are outnumbered by the majority of us will just cowtow to this nonsense. It hurts me bad,but the majority of our people are soft as toilet tissue when it comes to white supremacy. Only time will tell when a big a big wake up call comes that we will unite as one. And to the the trolls:you will get yours in painful way,bitch motherfuckers!
Depressed, GET ANGRY!!!! 😠
it’s time to start suing these callers.
instant cosign…I been saying that for years now…
These police are nothing but the Gestapo. What would the Jews in Germany have done had they had this much knowledge of what was to come to them?
This is fucked up. Poor kid. You hear him screaming. Then they try and stop the recording. It’s bullshit. Just FYI white people have melanin.
