PART 2
CONTINUED...
There has been a change in news topics. It has changed from talking about Coronavirus to the multiple protests that are happening. However, the media doesn’t show the good side of the protests. They also don’t mention the fact that most of the violence isn’t the protestors, it’s the police. The police initiate most of the violence. The protests are peaceful and yet the police are assaulting the innocent people standing up for what they believe in.
It is tiring to have this pandemic and have all these protestors getting hurt for standing up for the black community! What do they want them to do? Sit back while they are afraid to do simple things that white people can easily do without fear. Don’t get me started on the people saying “white lives matter too”. Ugh, it’s so tiring but I know I shouldn’t feel this way because the black community and black people worldwide have felt like this their entire lives. Saying “black lives matter” doesn’t mean that we are degrading white. We are simply bringing light to the problem. To the fact that innocent black people are being killed in police custody and nothing has been done about it. Until the death of George Floyd. His death ignited the spark in everyone. His death ignited a fire so big that nothing will stop these people from protesting.
Why do we refer to people by their skin colour? Why can’t we just refer to someone as human? Because, I don’t know, maybe, WE ARE ALL HUMAN!!
After I exercised and got my mind off things, I did a bit of work and then watched Netflix
