So, I started writing a thing. Its a zombie (hopefully by the end of the month) novel that I’m working on. If anyone wants to give the first chapter a read I would appreciate it.

Hon, the Boston Tea Party was most definitely a riot. Over $1mil worth of goods were stolen and destroyed when they were dumped into the Boston Harbor. Maybe you should take a middle school US history class.

I just got my place to live threatened if I don’t vote for Trump this November.

I was told that the protests and riots going on are bullshit and that the cops should mow the protesters down with bullets.

I have been told that protesting doesn’t change anything.

What was the US supposed to be? A place where you are told who to vote for or lose your place to live? A place where people have to be afraid because of the color of their skin?

No. This was a country built on the backs of protesters and rioters, by the hands of people who were thought of as less than for the color of their skin. This country was built with the intent of it being the so called “land of the free”.

Boston Tea Party.

Abolition Riots.

The March on Washington (1963).

Anti Vietnam War protests.

Anti nuclear march

Triangle Shirtwaist Factory protests

Women’s suffrage protests

Sit-Ins during the Civil Rights Movement

The whole Civil Rights Movement

Now Donald Trump wants to try to stop protesters. He has thought since AT LEAST 2017 that the US allowing protesters is embarrassing.

He called gun toting white people, who they themselves claimed were “armed to the teeth”, good people who were upset that their lives were disrupted. He called unarmed black people who are SICK AND TIRED of being afraid for their lives due to the color of their skin thugs.

There was a little 10 year old girl who was maced directly in the face by a cop named Jared Campbell. Protesters are being fired at by rubber bullets for being there. Crowds with children, elderly people, and people with respiratory problems are being tear gassed during a pandemic for a viral respiratory disease. They are protesting the death of black people who have been killed due to systematic racism.

White peoples with guns who threatened to harm government officials aren’t faced with riot gear. People with signs and their voices are. The main difference is skin color.

Because of my skin, I would be able to go to a state Capitol with a gun and force my way into a building and not be shot. A black man was suspected of having paid with a counterfeit $20 bill and lost his life.

My own family thinks that the people who are protesting are idiots and ignorant. My own family thinks that protesting won’t cause change.

My own family member said that a white man with a gun isn’t a threat. There’s so many school shootings that say otherwise. So many women who have been bordered for turning down a man that say otherwise. So many dead, unarmed, innocent black peoples who can say otherwise.

In this world, the person who is most threatening is a white man. A white man holding the office of president. A white man with a gun. A conservative, Christian, white man is the most dangerous person in the world.

Let me list off things that wouldn’t be possible if protests hadn’t happened, for me and my family.

1) I wouldn’t be allowed to vote because I am a woman.

2) I wouldn’t be a US citizen as I have Native American blood.

3) My cousin wouldn’t be able to get married to a woman she loves because she is a lesbian.

4) I wouldn’t be able to be friends with several people I know and care about, because segregation would still be in effect, or slavery would still exist.

5) I would be living in a Brittish Territory because the United States wouldn’t exist as the US.

I want to have a solid way to tell the family members that I live with that they’re wrong so that I don’t lose my place to live at the end of the fall 2020 semester.

I want everyone who feels like they can’t tell their family their political views to find a way to share their views without it impacting their family life, their place to live, their physical or mental safety. Whether it’s making a post, message a friend who shares your views. Do something so you can let out your anger about the injustice going on in this country today.
