…and here we are, back to my regular stuff.

I have now attended a total of three protests in my entire life, and this was the most recent one.

A guy in a giant pickup drove by, as slowly as he could, while copious amounts of thick black exhaust covered us. And a vehicle (a pickup, if you really want to know) full of white guys was stopped at the light where they took advantage of the timing to shout racist things at us.

But it was worth it to make our views and concerns seen by people who maybe didn’t realize what was – and is – happening.
