Today was a heavy day. It's been a heavy week. On Monday, Minneapolis, my hometown, experienced another Black man's death by the hands of (or should I say knee of) the police. George Floyd. Rest In Peace. Ever since Tuesday, the community has come together in strength, sadness, anger, and love to protest. These protests have erupted, and have called for nationwide attention. I want so badly to be there in Minneapolis right now. My neighborhood is burning, the people are hurting.
Kev told me to sign up for this streak club nearly a week ago, and unfortunately, it's taken me until now to do so. I said I'd sign up the next day. I was getting ready to say, "alright, tomorrow will be my day," when on my drive home tonight from picking up my HopDoddy to-go order this song came on the radio. It immediately made me feel like smiling and grooving. So I did. And it felt so good! The song was playing on KAZI 88.7FM The Voice and Soul of Austin -- Austin's Black community radio station. It felt right. It felt hopeful. It was calming, soft, and beautiful.
Justice will come. Change will come.

P.S.: I feel like I'm in, like, a confession box at a church rn because I also want to say that I am watching Selling Sunset on Netflix to decompress. It's my current guilty pleasure, but it just totally awful and feels so wrong right now. Basically a bunch of rich white women selling mansions in the Hills and getting catty w/ each other.
