In the last month or so, as a nation we all came together to raise millions of dollars in hurricane relief money, why was everybody sensibilities ignite then? Cause it affects everybody, mother nature can give a damn about your race, status, rich or poor. When it come to this racism stuff and the reason the protest are happening- which we are not even talking about by the way- everybody is not affected, so sensibilities aren't ignited the same. Oppression only effect one demographic and that's the demographic that try to take a stand to fix it. I don't know. You tell me.... any body who don't believe this is a real problem, is in denial. Look man... Oppression is a real issue here. And it being cover and smothered by white people because it an ugly reality they don't want to face, I get it. I understand when it comes to race, we're categorized and all lump together in our respective races. A 6'2 230 pound black man, TRUST ME I'm very familiar with the stereotypes that come with race. I know it not all of you, I know all white people ain't races or oppressive, and when you have to take accountability for something that's not your responsibility, and don't represent your views, it's HARD I get that too! However, for as long as we keep pretending like the elephant ain't in the room, change CANNOT occur. While I'm aware all white people ain't bad, when you deny people of their experience how they experiences things, when you not only shun and deny people of their rights and freedom of expression, but also try to tell them what they should and shouldn't do, at that very moment you become part of the problem. People say they stand for this country, the flag, military and first responders, but this ain't about the flag, military and first responders, it's about racism and social injustice in this country, that's what this protest is about. So I discuss and I'll continue to discuss, for blacks, brown and the oppressed. Quiet is what everybody want; people, media, conservatives, everyone wants quiet on this ugly truth and this ugly reality, but quiet ain't got us nowhere clearly! Why do you think we keep ending up here, it sure in the hell ain't by coincidence.
