Hello, Patti. If I may?

I am angry at the mob for going to the Capitol and acting like assholes.

I am especially angry that they see themselves as better than someone who looks like me b/c they were born white and I was not.

I am angry that they seem to believe a "rightful position" over other people exists. That that position is theirs. That people who look like me are people they have a right to be over.

I am happy for Kamala. But watching them made me realize I'm done with dealing with this like it is normal. Like it can be - or should be - explained.
