  are Black Women and Men Under Attack?
  

  Are black folks under attack across America? Base on this hospital video one would think so. The Hospital video shows no one helped dying black woman. A shocking video shows a black woman dying on the floor in the psych ward at Kings County Hospital after being in the waiting room for 24 hours. Get this, while doctors, security guards, and other hosiptal staff did nothing to help. Also, as reported by the Daily News surveillance tape suggests hospital staff may have falsified medical charts to cover the utter lack of treatment provided Esmin Green before she died.
  
  

  "Thank God for the videotape because no one would have believed this could have happened," said Donna Lieberman, executive director of the New York Civil Liberties Union. check out the video below:

  Meanwhile, 400 miles away in PG County, Maryland, The Washington Post reports on A 19-year-old man suspected of killing a Prince George's County police officer was strangled in the county jail two days after his arrest, the state medical examiner's office concluded yesterday.

  Ronnie L. White, who was found unresponsive Sunday morning, died of asphyxiation, and two small bones in his neck were broken, according to preliminary autopsy findings. County officials said he was separated from other inmates; only seven guards and an undisclosed number of supervisors had access to the area where White was held.

  The news that White was killed drew immediate condemnation from civil rights advocates. The FBI began a civil rights probe, and Maryland State Police took over the investigation of White's death at the request of county officials. Investigators from both agencies were interviewing guards at the jail last night, County Executive Jack B. Johnson (D) said at a news conference, where he announced the medical examiner's findings.

  "We live in a constitutional democracy, and no one has the right to be judge and jury," Johnson said.

  
  

  Several times, while standing beside grim-faced county law enforcement officials, Johnson described himself as angry. He said police are not suspected in White's death.

  AAPP: Well folks, is there a continuing  attack on Black America, or is these just isolated incidents with no connection? i guess the people shut down the video in the case of the black man being held at the jail. "Look out for the cover coming." Welcome to living black in America.
