Oh yeah, it’s so obvious to anyone who pays any attention to the world around them. I’m white as mayo and yet I can see the clear racism this country has. The only way someone could possibly believe America isn’t racist is ignorance or racism on their part

And it’s the reason that so many black families still tell their kids not to trust any medical care. Because our parents were alive in 72’ and they saw that shit happen. Breaking the trust of a community can happen instantly, but it takes forever to repair that trust
