Walking around downtown Lansing and a guy threatened either my friend and I or the Asian family across from us to “shoot this city up thanks to you” with something just before that. He pressed the gas and drove off fast at the end, so that was enough for me to fear the worst.
When people tell me they don’t see racism and don’t have to fear issues of color in their neighborhood, I know they walk with blinders on. I hear that from people who “work with an African American” or “have good family friends who are a different race.”
But this is not the first time I’ve been yelled at by a random person some random threat, or witnessed someone else be harassed for their color.
I can’t take it much longer. Someone needs to do something to get rid of racist ambassadors in every city. Why can’t we look different and get along? Why can’t I get the same respect in my neighborhood? Why can’t the people around me get that same respect?
Will there be racists in God’s presence? I don’t know if they would like it. I know I wouldn’t enjoy seeing them, at this point. I don’t understand it and I can’t stand it anymore. PEOPLE SPEAK UP. Please stop racism by immediately correcting it and standing up for the weak.
Stop letting it get to the point of death, like George Floyd, and SOOO many others, and give them an opportunity for life! LOVE people! Get some friends who are specifically a different race and tell them you need them to help you! #stopracism #savelives #GeorgeFloyd
