Michelle Obama: BLM Takes To The Streets Because They Have To

Michelle Obama: “Many of us still live in fear as we go to the grocery store or worry about —Walking our dogs or allowing our children to get a license. I mean, just imagine … They’re driving, but every time they get in a car by themselves I worry about what assumption is being made by somebody who doesn’t know everything about them. The fact that they are good students and polite girls, but maybe they’re playing their music a little loud, maybe somebody sees the back in their head and makes an assumption … They’re taking to the streets because they have to. They’re trying to have people understand that that we’re real folks, and the fear that many have of so many of us is irrational and it’s based on a history that is just — it’s sad and it’s dark and it’s time for us to move beyond that"
