I think a part about being black that people wouldnt understand, is having to accept subtle differences as a way of life
Things as simple as walking through a parking lot in your community, looking for your own car
You just live with the fact someome may see you and be suspicious

You just live with something like walking through the neighborhood with your brother to the basketball court, you may pass by an older person that& #39;s nervous of suspicious of you, but you& #39;ve grown up with it, so you literally just live with that as a normalcy
Ive grown up in a good community my whole life
Every cop Ive ever met in my life has been good to me
And STILL, id *never* want to interact with one if I didn& #39;t have to, just on the chance it may be one of the bad ones
And as this week has shown, they know what they& #39;re capable of

Walking around the neighborhood, you see a cop car parked, and you just have a natural fear of what could be
You avoid eye contact, you dont look that direction, whatever lessens the chance of an interaction
Thats just something you grow up with as normal, to get the best outcome

So even if you don& #39;t flat out experience injustice, you don& #39;t feel like a victim 24/7, and the worst thing that happens is you hear about other injustices
There& #39;s so many situations where you just have to move different, and accept that its normal for you

could go on all day, but this week is already exhausting
I will say, this week is 1 reason why I have exactly no respect for people w/ platforms who convince followers that nothing matters, that everything is fake, and that there& #39;s no reason to be politically or socially present

Choosing not to be either is one thing, but spreading bullshit to vulnerable minds is pretty wicked at this point
Anyways, in terms of the case
Its one of the most blatant brutality vids I& #39;ve ever seen
Its really hard for their to be two sides here but, alas
