The Richie RichWhen I was younger, I drove fast, perhaps even recklessly and never did I think that it might be the day my life could be taken. These days I drive the speed limit, I watch my mannerisms. I’m more afraid of police than I am road rage. When I travel for work, I try to get the most nondescript rental, I obey traffic laws. I don’t call attention to myself. So many of us do all that and still don’t make it home. Is anyone listening? How loudly do we have to cry to be heard? I’m so, so tired. ..3
hammancheez@therichierichaye I can't imagine the health impact due to the constant psychic damage of living life while being not-White in America, man
@hammancheez I went to get dinner and I came in and turned on the TV and saw the coverage. I became immediately overwhelmed. I have not seen nor do I want to see the video. I had nightmares about George Floyd’s death for months. It’s too much.
@therichierichaye and nor should you or anyone have to put themselves through that, the description is more than enough to feel disgust, horror and fear. Take care of yourself tonight as best you can.
@hammancheez thank you.
