Let’s talk about a real #NationalEmergency.
In 2014, #Flint, Michigan had such poor water treatment that their pipes leaked lead into the drinking water which affected more than 100k people.
It is January 8th, 2019 and the issue has STILL not been fully resolved.

Can you imagine this happening in a rich white area? Of course not.
Let’s not pretend that this has nothing to do with race.
PERHAPS it has to do with the fact that the US census stated that 53.9% of the population is Black and 37.5% is Hispanic.

Now, the US census also states that there is 39.9% white population and let’s not forget that everyone is being effected by this.
The issue is that we seem to move really fucking slow when it comes to areas that are not ALL WHITE.
New Orleans anyone???

I feel like any type of national emergency needs to focus on issues like FLINT and not this imaginary wall that will never be built.
We obviously have the money to do it. So why not? Why not help? What is stopping the government from helping Flint?
Just my thoughts.
