No GRAY AREA: We MUST Speak Out Against white supremacy

What I mean by obsessed is that I didn’t understand it, as much as I tried. It simply seemed too awful to be real: How can one man do that to his fellow men? How can the world watch and do nothing? How could neighbors denounce their neighbors? It seemed…
