02 juni: The past few days have weighed heavily on me. I’ve been heart broken, I’ve been shocked, I’ve been scared and I’ve been angry... something the black community has been feeling for generations. Nothing about this is ok. At times a feeling of helplessness overwhelms me ... but now is not the time to feel helpless. Unfortunately I am one of the many who thought my belief that we’re all human beings that deserve to be treated equal, that the color of someone’s skin would never make them lesser than in my eyes, was enough. I now see loud and clear that mentality is part of the problem and that being silently non-racist is no longer an option. I have a lot to learn but I’m ready to be a part of the solution. Apart from using my voice and donation support, I’m starting by educating myself and I urge you to do the same. These are the two books I’ve downloaded in case anyone’s looking for a recommendation. I know I will never fully understand, but I stand with you. #blacklivesmatter
