There’s so much I want to say
I’m just not sure how to say it.
And
Will it even matter
If I do?
I’m just some privileged white woman
I should probably just stay in my
Bubble
Right?
Except I’m compelled to speak.
To say…something
Any fucking thing.
Just not nothing.
I fucking hate the crazy, rampant
Racism that is everywhere.
Terence Crutcher.
So many lives.
Greg’s asshole racist friend called me a “SJW”
And I had to look it up.
“Social Justice Warrior:
One who claims to support social justice online,
But doesn’t actually do anything about it.”
He also asked me to name some of the people murdered by police.
I couldn’t do it.
But
I should be able to.
They all have names.
They all had lives.
Families.
Friends.
Their names should be known.
This can be me, taking a knee.
