Peace and Blessings Family,

I was watching the Frank Lucas biography on American Gangsters, and he talked about his cousin being killed by white men for "reckless eyeballing."

I looked the term up, and it is real, punishable by the courts of this country in times past, and still used according to the information below:

"Reckless Eyeballing" is a concept familiar to most Americans. It is most infamous for its use by the pre-civil rights courts to punish and imprison black men for looking at white women. However, it is still used for any form aggressive or inappropriate gaze, especially when a person without power dares to look a person with power directly in the eye. American prisoners are frequently thrown into solitary confinement for staring their guards in the eye, and prostitutes are in danger any time they look a pimp in the eye.

true it's looking upon a peer or master which bring forth a judgement against you
black men have been victimize and put to death for the acts of looking direct
sad how so many brothers now not only look but sleep with the very one that once
was our biggest killer ................where's Justice!
