No. Taking a knee is not about that. It is about SYSTEMIC VIOLENCE AGAINST PEOPLE OF COLOR.

And what are these girls doing to actually make a change? If your protest overshadows what you’re trying to change, you’re going it wrong.pic.twitter.com/m1CoSfV52r

How do you know they aren’t? Howard believes civic duty those kids mentor&tutor neighborhood kids,work in soup kitchens&free medical clinics
-
I didn’t say they aren’t. I asked what they are doing. Big difference.
-
We have no idea what they are doing individually or collectively to make a difference but them kneeling is saying we understand the issue
-
Great. You understand. Now what are you and they doing to fix it??
-
2/2 for change what are going to do? Who do you vote for?Who do you support,do you speak out when you see something wrong?You’re asking me
-
What I think needs to be done can’t be done by me. The changes that need to be made need to be made by black people themselves.

Yes! Kneel, stand-up, shout, protest whenever necessary. Thank you for not being quiet, for not being good little girls.

In fifty years, we will all be kneeling for the national anthem and a dude will stand in protest, and get attacked for it.

I would like to ask each one why are they doing it?! Pendejas!

If you don't understand, you have not been paying attention.
-
Oh but I have! And some just take the knee to be in the thing to do now. Not for real reasons. This is why I would like to know!
