I love the energy my Borther @b_stille_ is coming with. Being an ally for all is tough enough, especially when so many on the other side, ALLOW small, minuscule, and moot things blind them from the bigger picture. Thank you Ben.

Damn I never thought my birthday would look like this. I’m hurting for my people. COVID and racism targeting us disproportionately.
My only wish is that people continue to educate themselves before they dispute and deflect.

The amount of WHITE people using BLACK lives matter protests as an excuse to vandalize and steal is the exact reason the protests are happening. Not only have they been taken advantage of for hundreds of years, but now their protests are being taken advantage of, be better!!!
