If Biden gets elected I honestly and sincerely hope that people do not forget that having a democratic president will not “fix” racism and oppression in this country. Do not stop helping marginalized people. Do not stop reading and thinking the work is done

BLM protestors took down Edward Colston’s statue 56 hours ago. Since then Belgium has taken down King Leopold II, London’s taken down Robert Milligan, Liverpool Uni will rename its halls, Plymouth will rename a square and memorials for Windrush have been planned. Protest works.

The only thing worse than the way Breonna Taylor was killed is the fact that — even with all of this energy and outrage — the cops who killed her haven’t been arrested and it feels like the conversation is moving on. And you KNOW why.
