They are literally just sitting there this was completely unnecessary?? You cannot say people aren’t being peaceful bc everyone’s been peaceful till the cops show up..
ask your white friends, “why havent you posted about george floyd?” and see what they say. see who values the aesthetic of their account more than black lives, or who doesn’t recognize and utilize their privileged platform, or who uses wokeness as a performative tool for clout
if you’re attending protests as a white person, this is how you act! anger is justified but do not center this around yourself! use your privilege to protect people ACTUALLY at risk! deescalate! being violent and trying to get arrested is the least helpful thing you can do!
My friend #emeraldblack is pregnant was pulled over for her tags and was aggressively pulled out of her car (clearly pregnant) flipped her on the floor and arrested her and stomped on her stomach causing a miscarriage. Please bring awareness because the Bay Area won’t cover this
