A guilty verdict doesn't fix a racist system.
Ma'Khia Bryant, I'm so sorry. You mattered.
You should still be here.
Stop killing us.
I said it last week, but apparently I need to say it again: PLEASE do not tag me in graphic videos or pictures. I have never asked for this and it isn't a desire of mine. Tonight I was forced to see video of a dead child's body and I am not okay. Do not tag me in graphic posts. It's also extremely disrespectful to their family members.
Tag me in videos showing Black joy. Try that next time.

Exhale. Relax jaw. Feel relief. Cry. Text friends.

Exhale. Relax jaw. Feel relief. Cry. Text friends. Feel happy. But also so, so sad. Feel sad there were valid moments of doubt. Feel sad that in this country, a murder caught on tape wasn't a sure thing to be convicted for. Cry. Feel happy. No, can't be happy. Feel bad for feeling happy. A man lost his life. And so many people since him. And before him. The system is still corrupt. Can you reform the police? Would you reform the KKK? No, of course not. Cry again. There is still so much work to do. Feel overwhelmed. Cry some more. Think of George's daughter and family and friends. Shed more tears for them. Thank God for the accountability. Wish that George was still here. Know that he should be here. Wish that so many others were still here, too. Remember that this is just one step in the right direction. Remember that I am still Black in America. Remember that we still have work to do. I still have work to do. Keep fighting. Always. We are tired, but we're resilient.

✨I have received so much great feedback about the conversations Noah and I have from time to time and how much they have helped other families have important conversations.
✨I've heard from caregivers, teachers, and parents that want to "do better", but aren't always sure where to start or what to say.
✨On June 7th, Noah and I are launching our Talk About It: Real World Issues Summer Workshop.
All of the details are on the website! (Link in Bio)

✨ Early bird tickets are available now! We hope you'll join us! Register now to get your spot.

DMs like this get blocked so quickly. I refuse to spend my days individually explaining to people why this line of thinking is problematic.
If I were to stop talking about racism that would in no way help to end it. Talking, learning, and teaching about white supremacy, biases, and systematic racism can help us work to end racism.
People love to argue that enslavement started and ended so long ago and that people just need to get over it. It actually didn't end that long ago and racism is its legacy that is still around today.
This country has never fully acknowledged its past or worked to rectify it.
When do we start honoring broken treaties and giving stolen land back? Where are the reparations?
Where is our National Day of Morning for Enslaved People? You know the day all Americans come together and say, "Never forget," and there are acts of service done around the country and we acknowledge the atrocities of the past, cry, celebrate, and remember the millions of lives lost, and continue to work on ensuring a future filled with equal treatment for all?
And don't say this happens on the Fourth of July. And Juneteenth is hardly a day that every American (I don't care what color they are- Black, white, purple, striped, and or spotted) celebrates, remembers and honors the past. Why not? Because it was so long ago? We have Civil War Reenactments, Rebel flags flying, Antebellum South parties, and schools named after Confederate soldiers and colonizing explorers. Where's the same energy for Black and Indigenous peoples?
When do we start looking back in our family trees and 23 & Me results not just to have something cool to post on social media, but to find out whose family we might owe land, property, and/or money to?
When will African American studies be a part of the curriculum and not an elective?
We do need to talk about these things and learn about these things.
If your suggestions about ending racism sound like, "If only _________ would happen, racism would end." I hope you're filling in that blank with something that attacks white supremacy.
Your ideas about ending white supremacy should critique the oppressor and not the oppressed.

Time to find out if the west coast is really the best coast! We got stuck in Florida a year longer than we had initially planned, but my husband's licenses finally went through and he was offered a job in California! We'll be Californians this time next month, in the LA area. Tell me all of your earthquake survival tips below or drop where you are located! 🗺️✈️🎉
