Black rageIn the USA, Black rage refers to the proposed, but unused, "innovative defense" of the Colin Ferguson mass murder trial. Ferguson's lawyers argued that he should not be held criminally liable, for actionss which broke the law, because he was overcome with rage at society's racist discrimination against African-Americans. Ferguson rejected the advice of his lawyer and represented himself, arguing instead that he was completely innocent; Ferguson was found guilty and imprisoned. |
