Summary

We’re a shithole country because we pay off Breonna Taylor’s family but don’t give us actual justice, because Russia and China are deciding who our next leader will be, because hundreds of thousands are dead and yet thousands are chanting no more masks because Trump told them it’s a hoax. We’re a shithole country. Thanks GOP. #Democracyish.

and that's the place that we still find ourselves,

1:20.5

that these cities, these places,

1:23.2

they will paint Black Lives Matter in the street.

1:26.4

You have fucking actors coming out and saying, I won't voice black characters anymore.

1:31.6

2:00.1

municipalities, all sorts of different sorts of people are stepping up and saying, hey, let's be more equitable toward black and brown people.

2:11.2

Mostly in symbolic ways, but in some substantive ways.

2:14.8

We'll see how it plays out over the years.

2:17.1
