For the love of all things holy, my brothers & sisters can ANYONE understand the following, i feel like i'm going crazy?
For many yrs now I have held this widely taboo and quite toxic belief that every single one of us were birthed on this planet as a "person" NOT a "people" and therefore should be held accountable for the choices and actions we as individuals make thru the one thing no God can touch...free will.
Example: I am a white man living in Georgia. Somewhere out there exist another white man (like me) that, say lives in Deleware. Maybe that man likes to go fishing and I no care for it much. My burning question is, can anyone understand that yes indeed, this is a possibility. Deleware man and myself may share similarities in race and gender, but he IS NOT ME & I AM NOT HIM.
In short...Harvey Weinstien did some bad things, I wasent there, it wasent me, slave owners did some bad things, I wasen't there, it wasen't me, because I am a white/straight/male does not AUTOMATICALLY indicate that I am a racist, white nationalist, white supremast, misogynistic, homophobic, transphobic, Nazi racist because of the choices of a few bearing similar make-up.

You weren't there and it wasn't you, but you're responsible for supporting black lives because they still indeed suffer from ingrained racism within society and law.
