> All this because I fit a description. What was this description? I don’t know, black male between 4’11 and 7’4 probably.
I have been stopped, searched, and detained in handcuffs for over an hour because I "fit a description." (I was fired for being late.)
I have missed international flights because I was "randomly selected," again, to be subjected to additional screening and interrogation.
I was held at gunpoint in middle school while officers tore apart my backpack looking for a stolen pen.
I am a cis white male, the paragon of privilege, and I'd be standing right there with you if you would only stop excluding me based on the color of my skin.
Pot, meet kett--no, wait, I didn't mean--it's just an expr--aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
