1) This is for the people who demand others put on a show in here, in order to show they care about things:
My son a very beautiful brown child in a very white school, was literally removed from school at 11yrs and called a danger and a *high risk for terrorism* ON PAPER...

2) Because "someone" heard him talk about "weapons" and what actually happened?
Him and a white kid were talking about what weapons to use to catch bad guys.
I was pulled out of work, an investigator was sent to my home, and the investigator HIMSELF said they profiled my kid...

3) I Went through a year long battle with that school, because everything my kid did was classified as aggressive. Even though he literally got his head pushed into a locker and got a concussion, and still remembered what I teach him and walked away to tell an adult...
4) My point is?
There are A LOT of people organizing and fighting these battles out there and you don't hear about them in here.
I don't talk about any activism I do, because I have to be careful.
Stop trashing people for needing to step out, you don't know people's lives...

5) Get off the pedestals, just because you rant in here day in and day out.
A lot of PoC, Black people, and other marginalized groups stay quiet literally as a survival technique because some of us cannot deal with the mental drain.
You don't get to decide someone doesn't care

6) If someone is deciding to use their platform for positivity, that DOES NOT equal not caring.
You don't get to say "If you're not talking about so and so, here then you're an accomplice" that is not activism, that's not allyship, that's putting on a show.
Go out and do work.

7/7 And I'm personally sick of it.
