Your post is a call to action, and we cannot ever turn back. Last summer I had hoped George Floyd was the turnaround, and perhaps we will look back someday and his death and Chavin's trial will be a new civil rights era. He will not be forgotten. However, Daunte and Lt. Nazaro also show that white supremacy reigns to the foundation of our country's history. It is too beautiful here to not do something. Powerful post.

The dichotomy in this post between the beauty of the day and the ugliness of our current system is heartbreaking. Today I published a piece I had written over the weekend... a simple, sweet post about the morning. But your post? That's where my heart is today. It grieves for this young man and it is anxious for the many young men who are students of mine. But as a white mother of white boys, I cannot fully comprehend how Daunte's mother must grieve and how other parents must worry. I want to evoke change. I just see so many people who don't. Thank you for raising your voice.Jackie Higginshttp://createaliterateclassroom.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1089637337412050596.post-29217189366410412572021-04-13T20:24:14.924-04:002021-04-13T20:24:14.924-04:00The first words that came out of my fingertips wer...The first words that came out of my fingertips were "I understand." But I don't. I don't understand how this keeps happening over and over and over again FOR NO GOOD REASON. It is, as you say, simply a matter of skin pigmentation that has led to years and years of horrible treatment of human beings, and it doesn't seem like it will ever get any better. In the past year, I have learned a lot of what I didn't see, simply because I am pale, and I am still learning. But I don't think I will ever understand.Karen J.
