I didn’t read your story. I just can’t.

I can’t take the brutal truth you will make me read. I can’t take the lies we hear each and every time a cop murders a young black boy or man because they can.

I just can’t be made to read the bullshit…from media…not you…any longer.

I am so very sorry the people in our country can not accept the citizens in our community as being good, loving people…humans…and nothing more.

I am so very sorry color has to be so important.

I am so very sorry for the blindness of accomplishment of all color, of all gender, of all religion, of all … unless white maleness….

I am so sorry black lives don’t matter to the people making the laws to protect them…

I am just so sorry I am white today…I so wish I wasn’t…I am ashamed to my core and can’t seem to find the actions to make it better or help you or me understand why…

…why it has to be this way but then I only need look at our republican Congress and I get the message loud and clear…

….respect….

one word is all that need be in place….and it has never been more clear it does not exist in our government but without we can’t have a government that works for all of our citizens….

one fucking word….

respect

is it truly that simple…..yes…I believe so.
