you're very lucky
by: To White People
Today, Michael Brown, an 18 year-old, unarmed black male was shot multiple times by the police.
As a black male, I am constantly stopped by the police and questioned for no good reason and without probable cause. I could speak up, but I fear that I could be shot and killed or arrested just because of my color.
You white guys don't know how good you have it. You can throw wild frat parties, curse at people, and walk in large groups, and no one cares. Get a large group of black men together, and the cops will be there in 2 minutes or less, because we're considered "threatening."
Everyday I leave my home, I fear that I will be harassed and or killed by the police. It is very stressful and keeps me up at night. If I could wash away this color and not have to worry about this crap, I would.
Be VERY thankful for your color. You don't know the societal benefits you have.
