It’s hard to justify the enjoyment of music, movies, or even just spending time with friends during the cacophony that is engulfing the world. I’m not saying that what occurs in the USA, matters in the day to day of the rest of the world. It seems though that a chord has been struck that has reverberated around.
From the murder of a man by the police. Are the police always to blame? No, but this is the shock value of a death that happens quickly, not the death of a thousand cuts. This just goes back further … let me share this little picture, taken from Babynames.com on 06.19.20:

This, this is not everyone.
There is so much proof around us, racism was baked into this country. We need to change it, and we need to care about one another. We need to lift everyone up, and tear down symbols of hate. Which includes statues of the confederacy because guess what, they lost … I’m sorry was that a spoiler?
Guess what, the Confederacy lost … tear down the fucking statues and throw the confederate flags into a hole. The majority of those statues were put up in the Jim Crow era. If you don’t believe me, well then, how about this. Do you believe in the show Ancient Aliens, then here is an article from the History Channel – https://www.history.com/news/how-the-u-s-got-so-many-confederate-monuments.
Exploding racism, with pandemic that is being ignored/swept under the rug by the executive branch of the government. They had time and chances to prepare, they didn’t. Right now you have a child that is not taking blame.
All of this is coming to a head, is it good or bad? Doesn’t matter, it is what it is and it needs to be addressed. When a person tells you that they are a shit person, beleive them. Trump has shown that from day one. This November, vote. Use all of this to rage to fuel progress and a want to be better, so that we are all better. Make sure you are registered and vote, every November. It’s not just the President that matters, so does every single seat in our city council.
