Nonviolent Protest and Resistance Privileged
#42
RE: Nonviolent Protest and Resistance Privileged
You're right though, peaceful protests nowadays are treated entirely differently by both the cops and the media, depending on who makes up the majority of the protest. It seems violent and non-violent approaches are both subject to systemic racism and white privilege, unsurprisingly. But that's with everything. I think within those rules, the cost and rewards of the non-violent approach is a better bet. And far be it from me to guess at when it's time to abandon that and take on the risks.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue
