‘Race and racism is a reality that so many of us grow up learning to just deal with. But if we ever hope to move past it, it can’t just be on people of color to deal with it. It’s up to all of us – Black, white, everyone – no matter how well-meaning we think we might be, to do the honest, uncomfortable work of rooting it out. It starts with self-examination and listening to those whose lives are different from our own. It ends with justice, compassion, and empathy that manifests in our lives and on our streets.’ — Michelle Obama

the black cartoon community on youtube deserves so much more.

cw // death

hi i don’t usually do this but i’d like to use the platform i have. if you haven’t heard, brandon bernard is dead— not from an accident, age, disease, but he was executed. it’s hard to believe, especially thinking about how so many people (including big name celebrities) spoke against his execution. his delay request was rejected and he was pronounced dead at 9:27 PM from lethal injection. can you think about this? he’s gone, no longer here for a crime he didn’t commit about a decade ago. he was extremely apologetic and calm during his final moments: “I’m sorry, that’s the only words that I can say that completely capture how I feel now and how I felt that day.” he was sentenced based on “the belief he would commit crimes in the future.” his case is very racially charged and he’s spent 20 years demonstrating change. we couldn’t save him. however, during our condolences, please take the time to help other people on the death row.

no one deserves death and even if in some impossible case that they did, the death penalty in the US is extremely flawed. thank you for your time
