I think to be alive in this country, coming into the world with nothing and likely destined to go out the same, is to be in a quiet rage for the duration regardless of race.
And this is why there will never be any healing. It happened, but it is time to know that it is in the past and time to be yourself, in this place, in this time.
BillWa — it’s not over. It’s not the past. It’s today. If you don’t get that you’ve got blinders on. And no, I’m not black. I’m a 71 year old white woman who understands that she was born to privilege.

Isn’t this the same Herb who punched a man because of what he thought he was going to say?
