People in this country can live their whole lives only interacting with people of their own racial background because most of it is physically segregated. How can we fight racism if most people’s lives are spent in boxes?
It all starts with good parenting. Making sure your kids grow up with diversity. Also recognising the real history of this country and realising the system was fucked from the beginning
The forefathers of america (who all owned slaves) would probably approve of the way black people are treated. Racism is going to destroy this country and it’s gonna take more than a hashtag to stop it. Im probably gonna get hated on for saying it too
We need to stop teaching kids that america was founded on justice and liberty for all cause it wasn’t. We shouldnt allow the pledge of allegiance, that shit is insane. The more we come to terms wity reality the more easily we can move past it
In before “I swear you’re british” I grew up in Parma, OH one of the hickiest whitest suburbs of Cleveland
