Racism in the World

In recent events, yesterday- Friday November 13th, there was a mass slaughter in Paris. Violence that has become all too familiar took place in one of the post populated cities in the world.

It his the media like a wave from a tsunami, sweeping our eyes to our digital devices.

In the prime of the coverage, i wondered- is it possible this event could be a DISTRACTION from something far more destructive? Is it at all possible that conspiracy theories that point the blame of violence towards the American Government would apply to this?

Is it even safe to write this on the internet? Or will my words be noticed by the wrong soul- one trying to keep me in my place rather then tell me the truth?

There was a video I came across on Facebook about a young black woman reading a book of poetry about Racism at a Donald Trump rally. She stood out so much for her radical behavior. The book? Citizen: An American Lyric written by Claudia RanKine.
