One month later, will we still be here? Will my white friends be posting about racial inequality? Will they 'educate' themselves on the systems that strip us of our identity? Will they fight the good fight, despite the temptation of a return to normality? I do not blame you for I would probably do the same. All I ask is that one month later Remember I did not choose to engage in this fight. I was born into it.

One Month Later
One month later, will we still be here? Will my white friends be posting about racial inequality? Will they 'educate' themselves on the systems that strip us of our identity? Will they fight the good fight, despite the temptation of a return to normality? I do not blame you for I would probably do the same.

I think it is an amazing thing that today people wish to educate themselves more about the struggle that we go through everyday. I do not wish to discourage this in anyway. I just hope people will continue doing the same as this fight for equality does not end in a month's time.
