Happy #BlackHistoryMonth !
I'm still not talking about Black History. I'm talking about white US history. In other words, the story of racism.
Do you know that in the US, a Black 11 year old is *10 times* more likely to die by drowning, than a white child?
In a nation that ignores racism, folk believe that this is because Black folk "Don't swim well."🤦🏿♂️
It's 2023, and there are still folk that believe Black kids drown due to race, not racism.
