(1/5) I never felt like it was my place to comment on the issue of racist police brutality,and that is a problem. What is happening in this country right now is horrific. The murder of black people, because they are black,by law enforcement,or anyone else is a tragedy every time.
(2/5) I have never had to fear because of the color or my skin, and I know that’s something I will never understand. That’s white privilege. Racism has never been okay, yet it is part of the history of this country, a sickening part.
(3/5) Racism is very much alive and fueled by a president who calls white supremacists “very fine people” and then threatens protesters with being shot in a time when so many are suffering. It’s embarrassing, nauseating, and infuriating.
(4/5) Being a white person, I know I will never understand how racism feels. I stand for equality and I can’t just be silent while the president encourages violence and does nothing to help heal people’s suffering but rather makes it worse.
(5/5) What is happening right now is bigger than a hashtag. Black lives matter. George Floyd matters. Spread LOVE not hate.
