Dear white people,

For days you’ve asked me what you can do to help. I’ve finally found an answer.

Let your guard down and listen.

At least he's not provoking people to riot. Communication is not a bad thing.

He makes some good points but some points I disagree with. Worth a listen.

Except you know when he says “rioters and looters are just trying to bring awareness to social injustice”

Communication means both ways.

He doesn’t want that. He wants people to shut up and listen to him.

We don't need the lecture. The rioters do.

First question: what are you doing about the thousands upon thousands of black lives taken at the hands of other black lives every single year?

He is from as privileged of high school as one can come out of.

Him and his brother were probably recruited to st marks but he isn’t without his privilege

That's not communication when he's telling me to just shut up and listen. Communication means both ways. Not him getting to dominate the narrative.

I don't care to hear from any race, including other white people.
