“In a racist society it is not enough to be non-racist. We must be anti-racist.”
- Angela Davis (1979)

“Violence, in the form of white supremacy and racism and in other forms, is traumatizing. We’ve been moving on without collective therapy, healing, repair and eradication of the violence for far too long.” — @BerniceKing #MLK

— Dr. Martin Luther King Jr
“The vote is the most powerful instrument ever devised by man for breaking down injustice and destroying the terrible walls which imprison men because they are different from other men,”
— President Lyndon B. Johnson when he signed the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

Ruth B. - If I Have A Son (Official Video)
If I Have A Son
If I have a son I'll teach him to be brave Cuz if I have a son he's never really safe And when you run to the corner store for a snack I wanna know that you'll make it back home Ho-o-ome...
Your skin, it glitters like gold There's love inside of your soul But no matter what you say, no matter what you do This world will never be as friendly to you I wanna keep you close, I wanna keep you safe I hope I see the day where I don't have to pray Every time you go Every time you go
And if I have a girl I'll teach her to be strong Cuz even when you're right, they'll tell you that you're wrong And if you want something you'll work twice as hard Cuz that's the only way we get far Fa-a-ar...
Your skin, it glitters like gold There's love inside of your soul But no matter what you say, no matter what you do This world will never be as friendly to you I wanna keep you close, I wanna keep you safe I hope I see the day where I don't have to pray Every time you go Every time you go
I saw a man lose his life All cuz his skin looked like mine I hope the world makes a change So when you get here it's not the same Sa-a-ame...
Your skin, it glitters like gold There's love inside of your soul But no matter what you say, no matter what you do This world will never be as friendly to you I wanna keep you close, I wanna keep you safe I hope I see the day where I don't have to pray Every time you go Every time you go
If I have a son I'll teach him to be brave Cuz if I have a son he's never really safe

Had to do another quick drawing tonight:
There is too much hate in this country...polluting our children...consuming social media... too much hate.
It all starts at home. Nobody is born a RACIST RACISM is taught.

My story should scare you — and inspire you to act.
“Our lawyers didn’t think we would be convicted — they were wrong“, Desiree Fairooz
America, when did laughing become a crime?
Where in the Constitution does it give Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and Sen. Richard Shelby (R-AL) the right to arrest Desiree Fairooz or any American for their First Amendment rights?
