George Floyd’s life mattered: Ahmaud Arbery’s life mattered. Breonna Taylor’s life mattered. And the COUNTLESS other individuals who have lost their lives due to racism mattered. And those who haven’t lost their lives have lost their livelihoods; their security; their family members; their rights; their health; their time; and their dignity. Racism doesn’t stop at the murders that take place on a disgustingly regular basis. Racism is in our justice system; our healthcare; our prisons; our schools; our history textbooks. It’s everywhere and it’s everyday. It’s systemic. And it can even be found inside allies who have been conditioned to have implicit biases. Posting on social media is a start, but it isn’t the solution. Unlearn your implicit biases and question your own deep seeded racism. Educate yourself with books, podcasts, movies, conversations. Challenge your friends and family. Sign petitions. Donate to bail out funds. Invest in black artists. Call your representatives. Vote for better leaders. Show up at protests. Stop telling people how to process their pain and trauma. Learn how to be a better white ally. Give the platform to black voices. Because George Floyd’s life mattered. And his death wasn’t an exception. It was the rule and that rule needs changing.
