"... My skin is not a crime. Recently, there's been numerous accounts of police brutality. George Floyd. Breonna Taylor. Get your knee off my neck.

Why did it take this long for the non-bipoc population to speak up?

The past week has been nothing but eye opening and inspirational for me as I have found ways to make myself happy as well as friends and family around me. I went to a Black Lives rally at Wright state listening to inspirational poems and speaker such as my brother who was there detailing what students like I should ask myself to excel in the present and in the future.
