Can we care about this? I was told we can't care about Cecile the Lion being poached because a black kid got shot. Y the police.

Can I care about a cab passing a woman by . The political correct rules get confusing.

I mean it's not possible to care about 2 issues so I guess I got to go with Black lives matter instead of Black passages matter

I'm sorry, how are we more equal than others? Could you break it down for me, because I just don't see it.

Also, if you want to switch places, I'd be happy to oblige you. I'll trade my special class for your white privilege.

Firstly, you don't have to do what people tell you.

Secondly, and more importantly, as an adult you can make a reasoned decision as to which news stories are worth your time. A racist cab driver might be worth of comment and analysis gor some folks, but most people, I'd imagine, set their horizons slightly further away.

Amusing, no white involvement here.
