The most urgent task, apparently, is to prove that the coronavirus is a function of white supremacy. https://twitter.com/AdrienneLaF/status/1247255948449718272
This came out wrong, which is my fault. Of course it matters if one segment of the population seems to be affected disproportionately, whether that's men over women or black over white ...
... especially if we can figure out why a virus has such an effect. But we don't know yet, and politicizing this as a function of white supremacy, seems to me to be the wrong emphasis.
I'm sorry if I seemed indifferent to the suffering of various different groups. I'm not. I want universal healthcare to emerge from this. I just prefer to focus on prevention and treatment and humanity right now, rather than race.
