Western Institutional oppressions and the killings of black and brown bodies - Justice for Mbobda

Working together across privilege

We as a black communities in the west and beyond, have very often expressed our violent experience with the western powers over it's violent policies, social exclusions and state racism towards black or brown minorities, indigenous people and the current refugees/ migrants in Europe. On this program we will be talking to Tom, who is a member of the initiative seeking justice for brother oury jalloh. First the bridge radio collective is sending out our condolences and solidarity to the family of William Tonou-Mbobda and his family. William lost his life in the hands of the security guards of UKA hospital institution in Germany. We use this occasion of pain and tragedy in our community to remember those our sisters and brothers this western discriminatory and racist institutions in this society have killed violently or silently, at the hands of western police officers, the judicial system, the prison system, the refugee detention camps etc. As we remember William Tonou-Mbobda, who the hospital institution has blamed for his violent death, we also remember those the western institutions has forced to take their own life and blamed them for it. People who their names are not being mentioned or remembered in any manner. We call out the danish institutions and individuals working on a daily basis in the danish refugees and migrants detention camps, those who work within the Western institutions that makes it possible for the danish/ European systemic racial discrimination laws and policies practically possible to take a humane moral approch in their daily duties. Here at the bridge radio, we intend to educate the common western citizens of their institutions. To show that western law and practices does not only hurt and kill back/ brown bodies, but it also hurts, kills and dehumanizes the western citizens directly.
