getting to experience more than living in a shut-in community.
Going along to get along just doesn’t work with me. I don’t like the BLM as an organization however I see clearly their points of view. I think those protests were and are the right thing to do but I cannot abide the violence. Things like the confederate flag are hate speak in a symbol and it continues to promote the promise of systemic racism. Our black friends and neighbors using the N-word is a horror in itself as it defies the the pain and suffering of those who met their end because the word. There is no positive connotation in that word the same as there is no positive connotation flying a confederate flag.
