Dear Bravo, You Have a Racism Problem
The sins of white media are upon you!
The murder of George Floyd has sparked a worldwide phenomenon, which could be viewed as the long-awaited sign that real change, echoing why Black lives should always matter is finally here, or it could just be another historical event to add to the previous movements that didn’t yield lifesaving measures.
The latter is highly doubtful.
Either way, as we work tirelessly to keep hope alive, we are also witnessing the crumbling foundation of white entities, that are desperately and shamelessly scrambling to make mandatory adjustments to the previous rulebooks, that were damningly seeped in willful exclusion and the high tolerance for blatant bigotry.
The hourly headlines from overworked editors, aggressively clogging news feeds with details that confirm the abrupt departures of former cast mates of reality TV and other facets of white entertainment is solid proof of the end of days.
White supremacy isn’t just regulated to the venues of KKK-themes rallies that Trump can hardly wait to get back to, or the blood-filled streets where the violence of law enforcement disproportionately devastates the Black community.
The lethality of whiteness surrounds us everywhere we go.
