The body of Sadie Roberts-Joseph, 75, was located Friday but it wasn't immediately clear what led officers to the car. The cause of her death is still unknown, police told the station

[...]

Roberts-Joseph was a renowned advocate in the Baton Rouge area. She founded the Odell S. Williams Now and Then African American Museum in 2001, where she had been hosting the city's Juneteenth celebration for years

[...]

She also founded Community Against Drugs and Violence, a non-profit organization focused in creating a safer environment for children in North Baton Rouge.

Wtf? Who would murder a 75 year old advocate and community organizer?

Posted @withrepost • @supercalifragilistiche L’omicidio di Sadie Roberts-Joseph è omicidio razzista I giornali hanno riportato che le indagini si sono concluse con l’arresto di un inquilino di Sadie che era in ritardo nel pagamento dell’affitto, come se si trattasse di una qualunque storia di cronaca. In realtà, la donna era un’attivista per i diritti civili dei neri ed era stata protagonista delle proteste che scoppiarono a Ferguson, in Missouri, a seguito dell’assassinio di Michael Brown per mano della polizia. Sadie Roberts-Joseph era anche la fondatrice del primo museo sulla storia degli afroamericani in America ed era riconosciuta come una figura di spicco per i suoi lavori di ricerca sui quartieri neri di Baton Rouge, cittadina della Louisiana in cui era attiva L’omicidio di Sadie oggi si iscrive in questa storia recente di assassinii razzisti che non sono riconosciuti come tali, evidente è dunque l’importanza della battaglia perchè questo avvenga. In un sistema di violenza in cui la polizia ha carta bianca perchè certa di rimanere impunita, nessuna giustizia potrà esistere finchè la vita di un nero « non importa ». #sadierobertsjoseph https://www.instagram.com/p/B0INocQCFxj/?igshid=nsv9ibqlcfw

Reposted from @teatenders___liv - Updates to the murder of 75yr old activist #SadieRobertsJoseph, the police have a man in custody, apparently he was a tenant of Sadie’s rental homes, and was months behind on his rent. He strangled & suffocated her, then ditched her body in the trunk of a car 3 miles away from her home. Her killer is being charged with 1st Degree Murder.(💕💚#4evahaka2 #FAMU1908 #CreditToOwner) - #regrann https://www.instagram.com/p/B0ANpZsHqYt/?igshid=28eu13bai6a4

Please know this tragedy is not a coincidence. She was killed. Killed for trying to give black people a history that white supremacists don't want people they oppress to have. I shouldn't have to #rip or #sayhername She should still be here. 😢😡 #sadierobertsjoseph #africanamericanhistory #africanamericanhistorymuseum (at Baltimore, Maryland) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz-JBo9nQXM93xrtrQGRLBoUfuVZttcj4_11400/?igshid=7636iw0wsvf
