What continues to amaze me is how this movement exploded into view throughout our country and institutions on or about the exact same time, as if fully formed, undisputable and ready to impose struggle sessions on all those who resist.

In Washington state in July 2020, with no warning, survey, or public study, the unanimous Supreme Court issued a letter to all lawyers announcing our justice system was systemically racist and we each were responsible to do something to correct this flaw. It was reported that shortly after Mr. Floyd died and the riots got underway one justice said to another, we have to do something.

The same thing happened in our public schools when in early 2020 the Assistant Superintendent informed the staff and teachers he was challenged by his whiteness.

Everywhere all at once the same song book was played.
