Well there you go. As black parents have generationally sat down our children to have “ the talk”, ( What it means to be black in America) white patents need too, to have “the talk”, ( what it means NOT, to be white in America) before we can be what America is supposed to be.

I pray that day will come.

Until we’re willing to weep for the children of our enemies we’ll always have enemies.

Isn't that the truth? I wonder how many of us (me included) have been waiting on someone to fix this. That's really on us. It might be a small thing (like the sculptor's letter) but there really are no small things.
