“A system cannot fail those it was never meant to protect.” – W. E. B. DuBois
- Can you recognize a system when you see it?
- Are you able to see those it was meant to protect?
- I think you know this already, don’t you?
Oh, man, I feel this. I’m white, and I’ve lived in the USA all my life. Everywhere I look, I can see how lucky I am to have been born white. The USA was built on the backs of slaves, and then the country turned around and put up every road block possible for them AND future generations.
😩😩😩
I agree. That’s why everything needs to be completely changed before anything will get better.
😩😩
We have to overhaul the system for the change to occur. It’s the same in my country.
😩😩😩
We are equal and should be treated the same way. All people everywhere should live in peace and quiet.
😩😩😩 but alas!
This post makes me think that you would really enjoy the book “How o be an anti-racist” Have you ever read it?
Oh no, I haven’t. I’m sure I would like it!
The fact that we are in 2021 and still dealing with inequality is absolutely crazy to me!
😌😌
We need mindset change
👍👍
Our world is going through such a tough time. I am definitely feeling so disappointed about things going on in our society.
😩😩😩
It’s crazy it’s still going until this time. I think it’s going to be for a long time and the new generation will struggle too.

This is a sad but true reality. I hope majority of us act with kindness and equality most especially during these times.
👍👍👏🏿👏🏿
I think this is happening globally. Sometimes we are scared because we don’t know who the real culprit is or who to trust.
😩😩 trust nobody!
This is very hard-hitting and true in so many ways.
😩😩
