“I need solitude; I need to feel I belong to myself. I now begin to think that reading has become my secret life and personal refuge.”

— Virginia Woolf, from The Early Journals: 1897-1909

It is easy when blanketed with wealth to decide on the fate of those touched with poverty,

When you walk the world wearing intrepid arrogance with the privilege the color of your skin grants,

A second thought is not spared for those crying out when it’s not your own voice strained with fear in a society that doesn’t wish to provide justice for all,

An attempt to smother racism and keep it hidden as though it weren’t plain to see it’s a world crisis that infects too many bigoted minds.

Don’t allow yourself to be corrupted and used as a pawn for deceitful leaders in a tedious game of chess that kills more lives than it saves.

Wake up and embrace change. Read and become insatiable to all things anti-racist in providing a better future for us all. That more lives are not slaughtered because of racist behaviour.

SAY HER NAME!

BREONNA TAYLOR was such a beautiful woman who was murdered by police.

These police officers should be charged rather than the force claiming it was a “miscalculation,” or an “accident.”

It’s a shame that the law prosecutes civilians with ease, yet when it comes to police officers murdering lives it’s a lengthy trial.

This is why it’s still important to stay informed and updated on the BLACK LIVES MATTER movement. Don’t allow the lack of notifications on news stations to blind and deafen you towards believing the issue with racism is drastically changing for the better. The first step towards improving the safety of black lives is defunding the police who are taking actions into their own hands and murdering people due to the color of their skin.
