The Question is WHY - A Statement from Salina Robbins - August 13th, 2021

The following was written by Salina Robbins, known in MOVE as Lina Africa. Salina is the daughter of Whit Simms, the niece of Mike Africa Jr., and the granddaughter of Mike Africa Sr. and Debbie Africa. 

The question is WHY. Why is it that the public figures of the MOVE cult continue to dismiss or counter ALL of the horrific allegations that have come forward thus far?

MOVE has always been strategic and does nothing without the gain of something. The public figures claim to fight against injustice on every platform they’ve ever been a part of or have created, including @Thebreakfastclub, @fightagainstinjustice, film festivals, podcasts, interviews, news media, social media, and films to narrate and push rhetoric.

The Prominent figures claim RIGHTEOUSNESS. The Prominent figures claim they are MORAL. They claim they PROTECT all life but somehow disregard the horrors within the confines of the MOVE cult which violates the very basis of human rights. MOVE says “the power of truth is final” MOVE says there is no peace without justice.
Does this concept not apply to MOVE?
Why is it taking these public figures so long to speak about these injustices? Are they looking for a strategic way to continue to make money, a way to hold on to the fame they’ve already gained from others' pain and suffering?
Their refusal to tell the truth has led to confusion and thoughts of self-harm of people who still consider themselves to be loyal members.
I implore people to keep asking the question “why,” why, are the public figures uninterested in protesting? Why are they silent? Why are they complicit? Why do they only want to discuss these criminal incidents behind closed doors?
