yeah, the home is the place that needs a lot of healing right now. but don't ignore the underlying issues that leave many of our black brothers and sisters' homes systemically discriminated against, marginalized, downright neglected at times..
we shouldn't be okay with police officers acting on "statistics." bc if we only see each other as statistics, we are denying our very dignity as human beings created in the image and likeness of God.
there's a lot more i could say but then i'd get nasty. but seriously, pray for her, her family, and this country as a whole.
