honestly kinda sad how many of y’all have already liked the tweet about my loans — maybe students in the US shouldn’t have to go broke to get educated... just a thought
The officer who killed George Floyd has had his charge changed to second degree murder, while the other officers present are now also facing charges.
Protesting works. Petitions work.
Threatening military action against folks peacefully protesting systemic racism and violence is an attack on our values. The past week has again exposed the ugliest parts of our nation and its history. We must work together to fix these deep injustices—not threaten or divide.
Whether you like it or not, this year will be written in history, your children will be educated of these events. They are gonna ask you what you did, wouldn’t it be embarrassing to say to your own children that you did nothing because you were uncomfortable.
The boston tea party was a historical moment that we’re taught in school when people rioted and protested against tax on tea. Now people are doing the same over the murder of an unarmed black man and suddenly it’s unethical and unamerican. spot the difference for me.
Good Morning what are we depressed about today?
Global pandemic? Institutionalized Racism? Donald Trump? The fact they still haven’t texted you back when you know they’re not busy? General Existential Dread? So much to choose from!!!
find a more informed way to show support for BIPOC than making them watch one of their own get murdered on your insta story!! it adds to an already TRAUMATIZING event. be better people. #GeorgeFloyd
