I haven’t been posting much on this platform about the recent protests because for one it’s not very large and for another getting into arguments with strangers on the internet is exhausting and often futile. Additionally, petitions are more effective when the signers are local, and donations are more likely when solicited amongst people who … Continue reading LISTEN TO BLACK PEOPLE — A List of YouTube Recommendations
