why don't we think of what's next...100% in agreement.
What is next?
step 1 is to recognize the problem. judging by what much of the country and the president and people in positions of power (police, etc) think, many Americans still think police brutality and white privilege are overblown and that minorities should just suck it up. how do you, ninja, and others suggest we go about improving this awareness? personally, i was on the fence a couple years ago and was not initially a fan on what kaep did. but because of kaep and also the increased exposure to cases of police brutality and seeing arguments online (cogent arguments about WS, especially on NT, but also the increasingly vapid arguments of those on the right) I feel well-informed and have an idea of what needs to change.
what do we do to make more people reach that point?
step 2 is probably going to follow naturally from step 1, which is to enact policy/oversight that holds officers accountable.
step 0 was voting for Hillary and Democrats but we failed on that. there's so 2018 and 2020 though.
