To my people , I love you .
As a black woman this subject is more than personal for me . Antiblackness is alive in everyone & everything globally. The effects of antiblackness seem to know no bounds & its face is always in our view . Although surprising & appreciated I cannot reward or praise non-black people for what they should be doing. I cannot thank someone for treating us like people , & advocating for us to have basic bare minimum human rights because we SHOULD already . The fact that we even have to scream from the rooftops and protest on our knees that black lives matter, the fact we even have to tell anyone & demand to be seen & treated as people & still in 2020 .. is more than too much for me . Rest in Peace & Power to all victims from 1619-2020 .
