It is easy to compartmentalize each racialized issue and see them as separate.

Which is the only way one can say and believe “this isn’t Canada”(Alberta or Edmonton).

Because racism is all of the above. It’s systemic.

Which is what BIPOC have been saying for generations.
This is another one of those harsh realities mainstream Canadians prefer to rationalize away. You personally aren’t racist. You personally haven’t experienced racial hatred. So it’s difficult to empathize with those who have.

You are one grain of sand on the beach.
You’re open to new experiences and cultures. You may even have friends and relatives that are BIPOC. But you’re ignoring the dangerous and cutting shards of glass BIPOC must wade through to traverse the beach.

This is the action MLK jr. referred to as infuriating.
