My great grandfather worked at Bethlehem Steel. I can remember waiting at the the front window for him because he brought fresh donuts home every morning after his night shift. I was 2. But I have a hard time remembering high 🏫. Racism is traumatizing. It's a constant, almost
unbearable trauma that affects children at a young age and well into adulthood. So when people pretend that people should move pass the trauma inflicted on you as a child, don't have a clue of what they speak. Now think about those children separated from their parents at the
border. What kind of damage was done to them. Think about those black kids that watched cops kill their parents. Think about any child that was robbed of their childhood because of abuse and poverty. Now tell me why I should give a fuck about a woman that's in jail for breaking
the law in another country because she felt her white privilege was more important than rules put in place to protect the greater good. Miss me with that she's just a teen bullshit. Miss me with that they shouldn't treat her that way bullshit. Miss me with that why are they
treating a kid that way bullshit. Because the only children that America care about is white kids. The First People's, Slaves, Asian Americans, Hispanics and every other non white culture has some history to teach on the horrors of how our children have treated. Just saying.
