If we’re seeing “a few bad apples” every 28 hours, at what point do we look at the apple tree and question the health of its roots?

Not that I have much American reach, but this advice is mostly applicable anywhere.
‼️ KNOW YOUR RIGHTS WHILE PROTESTING: A THREAD ‼️
Every police department violating people's civil rights must be stripped of federal funding.

Not understanding privilege is part of your privilege. It can be hard to recognize our own intersectional advantages, but for others, the lack of that advantage is impossible to ignore.
It's a privilege to learn about racism instead of experiencing it your whole life.

George Floyd and I were both arrested for allegedly spending a counterfeit $20 bill. For George Floyd, a man my age, with two kids, it was a death sentence. For me, it is a story I sometimes tell at parties. That, my friends, is White privilege.
