We have the white comfort of not wanting to pay attention anymore. George Floyd is SOOOO 2020. We’ve moved on… except we haven’t. Violence is still perpetrated because of skin color. We can just afford to ignore it and call it “moving on.”

It’s not CRT… It’s RACISM
We just can’t help ourselves. We say the quiet parts out loud these days. I would like legislation passed banning WRT… White Replacement Theory
We must confront our sin
I will continue to post about our deep-seated racism as the story unfolds from Buffalo, NY. For us as whites, I am still stunned when a motive is made clear, I still have friends who say, “Well, it will be interesting to get the whole story.” So… I will still keep at this.
