It seems the realism of racism is getting clearer every day. That's why this is so disturbing and bold to hear that three members of  the Wilmington, North Carolina police department want to wage a civil war and kill off Black people. The three officers - Cpl. Jessie Moore, Kevin Piner and Brian Gilmore have all been fired.

It was an  audit of a police video recording that captured one of the officers saying a civil war was necessary to wipe Black people off the map and that he was ready. Each one of the officers on the tape are accused of violating standards of conduct, criticism and use of inappropriate jokes and slurs.

Police Chief Donny Williams released the details of the recording at a news conference. He says, “When I first learned of these conversations, I was shocked, saddened and disgusted” Williams went on to say the agency will not tolerate such behavior.
