I don't know what life is like for a Black person in America but I do know it's not good enough and that we (white people) can do better than upholding this system of oppression.

"You might think you know what it’s like to grow up, exist, survive & even thrive in this country as a Black person, but let me tell you, regardless of how many Black friends you have ... if your spouse or in-laws are Black… You don’t know," Wright said. https://t.co/9pjLbqikuX

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.

I am ashamed of my country. I see moments in some communities where people are doing right by each other but most of the time I am ashamed to be American. We aren't great and I would venture to say that we never really have been. We've never protected ALL our people.

Remember how some of us said Trump is a racist and he would try to exploit the chaos to declare an emergency, unleash the military, potentially declare martial law and either postpone or suspend the elections to stay in power? We were all crazy.

Julian Castro should have been the President. Can you imagine how different this would be going? I wouldn't be terrified that the death toll of black Americans is about to skyrocket because our "president" is a moronic racist.

[Julián Castro @JulianCastro]

The President of the United States just tear gassed peaceful protestors for a photo opportunity.

He must be replaced.

These videos are always hard to watch. So many lives have been lost. It is time to stop letting that status quo stand. #BlackLivesMatter #IStandWithYou #JusticeForGeorgeFloyd

Rest in Power, Beautiful. @BlkLivesMatter honors those we have lost to police violence. #BlackLivesMatter #JusticeforGeorgeFloyd

I wrote out some thoughts on how to make this moment a real turning point to bring about real change––and pulled together some resources to help young activists sustain the momentum by channeling their energy into concrete action. https://t.co/jEczrOeFdv

@oliverdarcy Inciting violence is apparently all our president knows how to do. He is incapable of hearing what the people are protesting about, his solution is always more violence. I am horrified.

@thehill Here is to the hope that we see more officers forced to pay for their actions. 🤞

I made a post on where to start if you are looking to become an ally for BPOC, it includes books & articles to read & places to donate. It's not up to us as white people to decide what being a good ally means but rather to listen to what POC ask us to do.

This is the face of a child who has just successfully shoved her way into the bathroom. I will never again get to pee in peace. @ Albuquerque, New Mexico https://t.co/lY5uVgwnbX

She needs a dance class for one year olds. Can you picture a room full of tiny toddlers just bouncing to music? It would be the cutest class! @ Albuquerque, New Mexico https://t.co/18XKdce2p7

Being her mom is the most rewarding adventure ever. Lately money and career choices have been huge stressors but all that melts away when I get to her daycare. She’s really into giving… https://t.co/GuB4XM6hwq

I miss when she was small enough to fit in her Bumbo. Her chubby little thighs won’t fit anymore. 😢

She’s such a tiny bean. Had an appointment today and she is only measuring in the 4th percentile for height. She looks way too small to be running around wreaking havoc everywhere but yet… https://t.co/qM0EdZuIAa

Dropping toys and yelling “uh-oh” is her new favorite game. 😂 @ Albuquerque, New Mexico https://t.co/UBhcA3nqkm

Trying to dance like her grandpa! 😍 @ Albuquerque, New Mexico https://t.co/B1MIEib1vt
