By Scotty Reid



Salisbury, North Carolina - A 13 yr-old teen has been charged with communicating threats after a note containing a hit list of potential targets for murder were found in a bathroom at Knox Middle School in Salisbury, North Carolina. The list contained the names of several students and a teacher and was titled "187 List". The phrase "187" is known to mean murder among gangsta rap circles. The term was made popular by rapper Snoop Dog and Dr. Dre who rapped about killing an undercover cop on the 1992 track "Deep Cover" also known as "187".

The song was released by the recording company "DeathRow Records" which has been alleged to have been a CIA front company by John Potash, author of the book "The FBI War on Tupac Shakur and Black Leaders: U.S. Intelligence's Murderous Targeting of Tupac, MLK, Malcolm, Panthers, Hendrix, Marley, Rappers and Linked Ethnic Leftists". DeathRow is most known for one of the labels artists, the late Tupac Shakur and its controversial front man Shug Knight.

The Salisbury Police Department issued a statement which said they did not if the list was a joke or a real plot to murder students and a teacher but said they are taking it serious. The student who allegedly wrote the hit list has not been named.

Do Black People Really Care About Education?

With Black voter turnout being very poor across the nation for the mid-term elections and with the apparent problems in our communities especially in education, who are Black people going to blame?

When we think elections, most of think about the Congressional races, but what about the election of local school boards? What about the superintendent or those who appoint them?

It seems to us that the biggest problem in the Black community is the Black community. When a crisis hits like school closings in our neighborhoods, Black people will express outrage and scream racism but where is the outrage for those who do not show up to the polls where your opinions matter most?
