My heart is heavy. Its hard to see posts from my friends that make a mockery of what is happening now. To say it is not a race issue would be a lie, because we all know it is. To say it is not a political issue is a lie, because we know that it is. To say that we are making too much of this is a lie because we must do just that. For those of you who have friends or you yourself have used the word thug in your argument, let me just say this: thug is the new nigger. By now, those who I am trying to reach have probably scrolled to the next story or picture, and it is ok, that is your right. You can turn your head, leave the room, or distance yourself at your will. Guess what? I CAN NOT. Black is who I am, and who I will forever be. I cant scroll, turn my head, or distance myself because that does not change. Will the outcome from this tragedy change your perspective? I highly doubt it, but I now see you.
