@JennieLee @kituwahson @NatashaRomanova @InternetKevin @IronMan If white people would also confront racism and demand change with us, we wouldn't be here today. Some are. We need more.White people must confront other white people's racism where they see it, without being asked and without black people around to tell them. I appreciate the group of people I've met here who are discussing this.

“We are demanding justice. We expect all of the police officers to be arrested before we have the memorial here in Minneapolis, Minnesota, tomorrow,” Crump said alongside Floyd family members. “Because we cannot have two justice systems in America, one for black America and one for white America. We must have equal justice for the United States of America.”https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2020/06/03/george-floyd-death-charges-derek-chauvin-police/3134766001/

@IronMan Lynching isn't a federal crime. People can say it's symbolic, but it sure as hell isn't or if it is, we clearly need the symbolism. It's by design it hasn't passed.

@IronMan David Perdue ripped a cell phone out of a student's hand for aaking him a question. This is how he treats constituents. Georgia deserves better.

@rick @IronMan @InternetKevin If you are indeed watching closely, you will see that any inaction in Congress is due solely to the GOP and that the 2 parties are absolutely nothing alike. Are Democrats perfect? No. I don't need perfect. I require good. I require Trump gone. #VoteDemocraticI see that you don't live here, though. So that's for others. But please don't denigrate the one party trying to help. Thanks.

Police racism against black people is everywhere and all the time. Not just somewhere else and someone else's problems. This was more than 10 years ago and I was blessed to leave the scene with my life and health. i just wanted to add my story. I bet if you asked black people that you know, you'd find more stories.And police are not the only ones who need re-education. Their are other groups, too.1/4 thread

2/I was in my friend's 2-day-old Toyota Sienna on my way to pick up teenagers from our mostly black high school who were at a youth and government event in this neighborhood. After I presented all of my legal paperwork they gave me no reason for the traffic stop but "nice car".

@mariahill @CallMeMJ @IronMan It is incumbent upon everyone to work collectively to get this man out. There is no other progress that will be made if we don't. We already have too much from the first 4 years to undo, and they're not even over yet.

I'm sure a lot of Trumpers and insensitive jerks are going to flip out about a brand name change of a product that they probably never think about or use, but the story behind this is way racist and it should have been done a long time ago. Change is good, though. Change comes from speaking up. Always speak up.Aunt Jemima character and brand name being removed from all products - https://abcn.ws/2N51Sqd
