What Happened To Amber Evans?

Young black activist was found in an Ohio river.
The death of a civil rights activist in Columbus, Ohio is slowly getting attention.

Again, missing women of color never get national attention. The junk food media only makes the case if the victim is a white woman or white girl from an upstanding background. If the white woman or white girl are found dead, the junk food media peep into the life of the suspect, the create a storybook about the victim, the suspect and the trial. Then lawmakers start creating controversial laws and name them after the victim.

How many state and federal laws were named after white women?

Okay, there's a news story that is slowly picking up steam.

I listened to Joe Madison about a week ago. Madison who is a progressive agitator and civil rights activist spoke to the mother of this young woman who went missing. Madison stated that the junk food media often forgets about the rest of us. He brought attention to it and called out celebrity civil rights activists and others for not mentioning it in social media.

As of today, it's not being chimed over all of Twitter.

The Women's March of Ohio confirmed that their leader was found dead in the river.

Columbus Metro Police found in the Scioto River. The body of the victim was not identified but the junk food media confirms that 28-year old Amber Evans.

Evans was in a dispute with her boyfriend the afternoon of her disappearance, and her vehicle was found in the Scioto Mile neighborhood. Police found her phone close to the neighborhood.

Police have said since the beginning of the investigation that there were no known domestic violence issues in Evans' relationship and there was no reason to suspect foul play.
Scioto River in Columbus, Ohio.
The Columbus Metro Special Victims Unit and Dive Team found the body near the banks of the Scioto River around the Whitter Avenue bridge.

Evans who was the leader of the People's Justice Project and executive director of the Juvenile Justice Coalition.

The night she disappeared, a search was conducted near the river by the K9 unit and patrol officers.

The county boys also tried to get in touch with family members to ask if she posed a danger to herself or others.

Evans a staple of civil rights and progressive activism has passed away. Her legacy will be remembered by those in the Columbus metropolitan area. The family and friends are given the right to grieve. We the folks on the outside can offer nothing but useless "thoughts and prayers."
Say her name.
Now if this was a suicide, the case could be close. But something tells me that there are motives and I don't want to accuse the boyfriend of any criminal activity but I am going to start keeping an eye on this.

Again, women of color are being attacked. Me and S.B have talked about it on Journal de la Reyna.

Donald J. Trump is the results of years of white crimes, white privilege, missing white women syndrome, white guilt, white nationalism and supremacy. Trump didn't create this but he is symptom and enabler of this.

Thanks to Joe Madison, Roland Martin and Tariq Nasheed for bring this to light.
