Generally I try to make Black History Month about uplifting things. But I think that I will use Sundays as an opportunity to vent: Day 7: this is the kind of thing that boils my blood, sets my soul on fire, & fills me with so much rage I have to put my phone down and take deep breaths. Itâs not that this is ridiculous. Or that itâs unfair. Or that they have systemically used Black and BIPOC bodies as revenue in this prison system, essentially making them slaves. Itâs not even that we know they use prison as a way to break people and dehumanize them. Itâs that they have murdered so many innocent Black people for âallegedâ crimes, but this actual terrorist gets respect and luxury. They murdered Elijah McClain before he even got to jail. They murdered him for walking down the street. They murdered Kalief Browder for âstealing a backpack allegedlyâ. They put him in solitary for two years as a minor where he tried to commit suicide multiple times. They murdered Sandra Bland, Michael Brown, Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, Terrill Thomas, and the list goes on and on. @wefuckinghatedonaldtrump shared this noting that there are 2 Americas. It really itâs just one. America has always said Black lives are worthless but white ones should be revered. And so when we talk about Black lives mattering we need to recognize this. https://www.instagram.com/p/CK_zFJgBhxM/?igshid=1qvtjygy9pus6
