Yes. I am fucking angry. And if you& #39;re not angry too, you& #39;re choosing to be ignorant and dwell in your own privilege.
Our systems, and I mean all of them, not just in America, are rooted in racial hierarchy and discrimination. Now is not the time to be silent. But if you do; I want you to ask yourself: Why?
Is it because equality threatens the benefits you receive from inequality? The things you gain from being more privileged then others? Think about that.
Every year we celebrate & #39;being free& #39; while so many of us are not free, and we, white people are actively benefiting from this because it& #39;s rooted in all of our systems; school, work, politics, the fucking police. The least you can do is confront yourself with this.
It& #39;s 2020. Saying & #39;I& #39;m not racist& #39; isn& #39;t enough. You will have to be ACTIVELY anti-racist, there is no other way. Notice what& #39;s happening around you, not just on the news, every where. Near you.
Sharing stuff on social media is easy and necessary. But once you put your phone down there& #39;s still a lot of work to do. I& #39;ll be adding to this thread; things you can do besides posting and spreading awareness.
