We will not move forward as a nation until we address the centuries-old slaver culture that dominates every aspect of our society. We will not progress until we redress, & that requires understanding. It's a battle on all fronts: emotional, spiritual, economic, social, political,
and on & on. But the good news is that the fulcrum is fundamentally an economic praxis. Fix the way our money behaves, and the old worldview shatters. We have been avoiding this reckoning since 1865 and before, but we are now out of time. Our planet is burning because we cannot
feel for one another, and that is because we have been taught that some people aren't people at all, and that means we're all free to not give a damn about one another or the planet. We built a society where being a brutalizing cop is as natural as being a nurturing doctor--more
so. School shootings are COMMON. Think on that. It's not normal, and it's just us, nowhere else.
Our economic reckoning is also a moral necessity, but this aspect is not for the sake of the descendents of enslaved Black American citizens. It is for the sake of white America.

Be an ally for your own sake. It is the only legacy you can leave your children that matters.
