I'm scared y'all

This puts shit into perspective for me.

When WAYNE FUCKING BRADY is shook like dice...We got problems.

The access to information via social media can be a good thing.  But it also can trigger paranoia.  A friend of mine said I look for racism to confirm my feelings.  It's as if I need it because I just look for the negative.

After a few weeks of thinking about that statement.  I have to say that while I can do without racism....And when I say I can do without racism I am saying that I don't want anyone to experience it.  Frankly I live in New York.  I haven't experienced HARDCORE racism in a long time.  I mean I grew up in the 70's and 80's when shit was palatable...This generation has George Zimmerman, in my day we had a guy by the name of Bernard Goetz.  This generation has the Jena 6, we had the Central Park Five.

What I trying to get at is that racism isn't something that will go away if I stop reading articles about unarmed young black men/women getting shot.  It doesn't work that way.  Just because I have the kind of life where outright racist violence doesn't intrude on my life doesn't mean that the overall situation of Black America is any better than it was when I was growing up...You can quote stats all you want (I do not find solace in the numbers), fact of the matter is young black people are seen as a threat.

Here's some perspective, remember Stop and Frisk??  Stop and Frisk is a policy by which police officers stop and question hundreds of thousands of pedestrians and frisk them for weapons and other contraband randomly.  Bill de Blasio ended that policy...on a completely unrelated note Bill de Blasio has a bi-racial (black) son.
