Once again, the system of white supremacy turns Black ppl around the world into guinea pigs. No 1st trials in Italy, the UK, or the US, etc where there are the most cases, but in an African country b/c Black bodies have always been disposable to white supremacy/capitalism https://twitter.com/chroniclesrw/status/1246157318569558016">https://twitter.com/chronicle...

Multiple truths can live at the same time.
Life is complicated and we need to dig deeper, sharing and receiving factual knowledge as communities and not living reactionary in fear/trauma
