I’m not God (goes without saying) so I can’t see it all. I can’t see who does & doesn’t work on the behalf of black life. But, history says this, very few people across the global ethnic lines nail themselves to the daily plight of black life as it pertains to our human rights.
Human rights & civil rights are not equal. If you respond to the violation of our humanity only when the grossest tragedy occurs in civil sectors, then you have a blind spot of privilege that no rhetoric will help you see; you are part of the problem.
“Only the blind person believes evil can evolve out of itself into good. This blind person believes that the same evil is isolated to occurrences despite its tentacles extending from a metastasized history of a vile beliefs & practices. The ‘blood on the leaves’ still cries out.”
