Inspiration to fight


Yesterday was hard because we saw a lot of upsetting things. But for me it’s just inspiration to continue the fight against injustice and unfair treatment of black people. Being able to go to the memorial and see all those people who were lynched unnecessarily was eye opening because I didn’t know that all those people even existed because we weren’t taught it in school. It shows how uneducated the school system allows us to be on black history and it’s saddening that the younger kids aren’t learning this and their growing up uneducated and unaware of what reality really is.
