I am tired of watching innocent people die.
I’m tired of hearing them all cry the same phrase.
I’m tired of crying whenever I watch the news.
And most of all I’m tired of people acting like racism doesn’t happen anymore.
the fact that I had

A man try and convince me all police brutality was caused because we “bully” cops.

That he tried to abuse me into agreeing with him and when I refused he dumped me.

There is not a day I don’t use that experience as even more fuel for the rage that racists leave in me

Or even the fact that every single day I hear some racist comment by one of my coworkers because they think they can say it to me because I’m white. They assume I won’t judge them.

Well I want everyone to know I do judge them and I’m tired of no one agreeing with me

When I call out their racism. Does that mean I’m gonna stop using my white privilege to help poc? No and it never will. I will continue to rage. I will continue to remind them they are not alone in this fight #GeorgeFloyd #BlackLivesMatter

#JusticeForGeorgeFloyd

I will never know what it’s like to live in the shoes of someone who isn’t white but I will still do everything in my power to help the people who walk in those shoes every day. Why? ‘Cause I know for every step I take towards something a person of color has

Take 10 more steps to get to where I am. The world shouldn’t be like that. Just like I shouldn’t have to go out with a knife because I think I’ll get attacked for being trans neither should any person of color have to do the same. Yet here we are.

Here I am having had another morning I spent crying because the world is still so cruel. Wishing I could do more than scream and shout knowing I can’t. Being furious that I can’t.

I wish I was rich so I could flood POC protest organizations but alas I am not. Please if you have the money to help, do. I know we are all struggling so I won’t say you have to. Just know POC need help, they need a revolution in reality honestly.

They’ve fought for years and yet the only progress that’s been achieved is that they can get a job and go to school unsegregated. Every day people act like that’s supposed to be enough. It never was and never will be enough

Nothing will be enough until there are no more wrongful deaths. No more people blaming the victims for their own deaths before they even get the facts? Why? Because they refuse to see any one who isn’t white as a victim. Not just that thought they refuse to recognize

That every single person of color is worth just as much as white person. Think about that a literally human being refused to acknowledge someone’s else’s worth. Yet if a police officer wrongfully killed a dog every canine obsessed Karen would have a field day.

Stop staying quiet because you refuse to acknowledge your prejudice. I have and always will be someone who aggressively fights for the rights of everyone. If there wasn’t a literal pandemic going on I’d have already organized a protest because I know the only way any of this

Will stop is if we keep fighting. I know this thread is extremely long but it needs to be because I know how much racism I see every day and I want there to be a day where I never have to see it again.
