This is me. Growing up in a predominantly white city like Rancho I always felt out of place but today’s protest really showed me that we do have allies. I have always felt strongly about the issues that affect my people. I am angry, I am saddened, I am ready to take action.✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿
Literally two weeks ago on the same street people were protesting against the virus. Asking for hair cuts and massages,while approaching cars straight up...
We had a peaceful protest and they sent the whole police force...
#RanchoCucamonga#BlackLivesMatters
Speak about current events with some fire in your belly. Previous generations ignored problems that we suffer from today but it does not mean we must accept them as the status quo. We must challenge the standards that do not align with the society in which we DEMAND to live.
CNN just showed video from Los Angeles of an make officer getting beat by a crowd after attempting to detain someone. What is happening around the country tonight is HISTORIC.
I can go for hours about this stuff and if you got questions lmk
But I got into grad school and I’m psyched to be learning more about how we can make a difference :)
I love y’all and hope you’re doing well. Thank you for being alive, social distancing, and being sick af(5/5)
