WATCHING VANILLA ISIS IN OREGON WHILE REMEMBERING CHOCOLATE MOVE IN PHILLY






Anybody thinking about the 1985 police bombing of M.O.V.E. in Philadelphia just about now?



If not, read more: 

"After my stories last week on the 30th anniversary of the MOVE siege in West Philadelphia in 1985, in which Philadelphia police dropped a bomb on a [black] residential neighborhood, leaving 11 dead — including five children — we were surprised by how many people told us they'd never heard of the bombing."
