Thank you. And, I don't "support" riots. No one does. However, I understand what drives the people to riot. I understand that outrage over the riots is used to negate the entire movement. I understand that focus on the rioters has taken the place of focusing on the reasons those people felt rioting was the only voice left to them.

Consider this: Every mother of black and brown children sends her child out every single day into a world that, for POC, is a battlezone. Our police forces have been militarized and turned into warriors against communities of color.
