Mounted near the sidewalk, maybe this portrait will give people pause. It is certainly making me think. Swipe to see close-up. #georgefloydart #remembertheirfaces #sayhisname #policebrutality #eloraontario (at Elora, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBN_Uv6AUhw/?igshid=1wbmy68vxe4vs

White privilege is real. It doesn't mean you are immune to struggles or hardships. It just means that the color of your skin wasn't a cause of those hardships.
May we truly look inward and become angry and tired of watching our brothers and sisters be slaughtered, silenced, systematically profiled. Let that move us to action and to stop being silent.
*I copied and pasted this. I encourage you do do the same.

if we wanted to. people of color could BURN the world down for what we have experienced. are experiencing. but we don't. How stunningly •{Beautiful}• that our respect for the EARTH. for LIFE. is deeper than our rage...Unknown ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Some days I have very little fight left, very few words left. Some days I don't how to keep going. How to keep being so positive, when I'm so f*cking angry. Day after day watching the assassination of our Blood, of our Skin, of our Character, of our Language, of our Presence is more weight than I could have ever imagined. I know we were birthed from the most resilient •{Warriors}•, and I need to remember that when the urge to set this place on fire arises... •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Warrior of ✨•{Light}•✨ •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #BlackLivesMatter #SayTheirNames #RememberTheirFaces #TerenceCrutcher

#Repost @dc.kp with @repostapp ・・・ Say their names. #AltonSterling and #PhilandoCastile. Each day since 7/4/16, a person or persons of minority races has been publicly victimized and murdered. Fathers, Brothers, even officers. These two in particular, I seen their lives taken directly from my social media account on my fucking iPhone. This world we live in, "Disgusted" isn't the word, it isn't enough to describe the feelings I have for these actions taking place over these past few days. One murderous event leading to another, the blind led by the blind, those in the position to speak up for what's right aren't, I certainly do appreciate those who do. My head is heavy, my prayers go out to those victims and their families, those officers and their families. Black Lives Matter. If you have any hate in your heart for any human being based on racial, stereotypical bullshit then stay away. You are not welcome. And may grace be upon you. May grace be upon us all. #SayTheirNames #RememberTheirFaces #AltonSterling #PhilandoCastile #BatonRouge #Pennsylvania #Dallas #Atlanta #California #BlackLivesMatter #HUNT #HUNTMovement #HuntUsNotToday #HateInYourHeartThenWalkAway #SupportBlackArt #ArtLife #DCKP #DCorNOTHING #KINGPEN
