Social media probably is the thing that breaks the whole black/white relations in the United States wide open. People are noticing. White people, black people, it doesn’t matter, people can see sickening existential racism in real time.
The Whole World’s Watching.
I remember so vividly watching in 1968-69. I remember the burn of the tear gas in my eyes and lungs in Grant Park, Chicago after a mysterious bottle was thrown turning a protest suddenly “unpeaceful”. Can’t believe the lessons we thought were learned have been so completely forgotten and now with even greater force and more deadly tools. WTF is this tomorrow morning shit? Blood is flowing tonight. Now. Fuck.
