California’s new “Ebony Alert” law creates a notification, like an AMBER Alert, to recognize missing Black women and children ages 12-25. Governor Gavin Newsom signed it into law this week, which allows law enforcement to issue an Ebony Alert and the Department of the California Highway Patrol to update electronic highway signs. Media platforms, like radio and television, are encouraged but not required to participate in Ebony Alerts.
“Today, California is taking bold and needed action to locate missing Black children and Black women in California. I want to thank the Governor for signing the Ebony Alert into law,” said Democrat Senator Steven Bradford, who authored the bill. “Our Black children and young women are disproportionately represented on the lists of missing persons. This is heartbreaking and painful for so many families and a public crisis for our entire state. The Ebony Alert can change this.”
Welcome to hell, all you fruits and nuts...

i can't imagine anyone looking for them, certainly not their parents or family's unless they were to have lost out on the welfare payments.
ReplyDeleteThink of the pings if Ebony Alerts were organized around missing Black fathers.
ReplyDeleteNo, no, don't get up; I'll see myself out.
A suggestion to Governot Nuisance: create a "who is the father" alert every time a black mother asks for welfare.
ReplyDeleteI come from California from the late 50s. I worked thru college as a white on a multiracial phone crew in the Black Slums of South Central Los Angeles starting in the mid 70s. It was open warfare and they would shoot and kill anyone no matter the race. Black on Black crime is the worse, Black Crime to other races is the next worse. This is why they need specific Black Amber Alerts.
ReplyDeleteMissing Black kids are generally pretty easy to find. Why I can get you 40 or 50 at a time at any major retail store, if you can catch them.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure Bradford has accounted for a few missing..
