Here’s the bottom line: all lives can’t matter until black lives matter.
, please start there first. If you’ve already done that, feel free to read the questions below, or scroll down to the one that interests you the most.1. “If you’re so scared to live in your awful neighborhood, why don’t you just move?”I never said that my neighborhood is “awful”—if anything, it’s just like pretty much any neighborhood in America. What I did say though, is that I would be scared to walk alone in my neighborhood.
Let me put it this way: if I broke my ankle playing basketball, and I went to the doctor for medical attention, and his response to my pain was, “ALL bones matter” and then sent me home, that would be pretty dismissive right? Level 1: Trusting the authorities to step up and do the right thing by prosecuting and convicting police officers who kill unarmed black men .
This is NOT a justification for rioting, obviously. Again, let me be clear , RIOTING AND LOOTING IS ILLEGAL AND SHOULD BE PROSECUTED. And obviously, so must the crimes that inspired the riots in the first place . 5. “I still don’t understand the concept of white privilege. What is it that I can do as a white man that you cannot?”One of my very well-meaning neighbors was out of town, and some Amazon boxes were piled up on his front porch. He texted me to see if I could head over to his house, pick up the packages, and bring the packages back to my house until he returned home .
First, the facts. Black people kill other black people at an extremely high rate. This is indisputable. About 90% of black murder victims were killed by black assailants. But here’s something else that’s equally indisputable: White people kill other white people at a similarly high rate. About 84% of white murder victims were killed by white assailants. This makes obvious sense because the majority of violent crimes are committed against people who they know.
