An OPEN LETTER to … A Race-Confused America …

See it. You can’t help but see it, right?

Feel it, even if you have white skin. Even if it’s hate, and it hurts; see it that skin doesn’t matter.

Sometimes, seeing the hate can help.

And learn from it because your political leanings don’t matter here, and your understanding doesn’t really mean much once the image has departed from what’s left at the mirror once you walk away from yourself.

Realize people are all kinds of people and grow.

For some, however, such a process proves painful, but there’s not a lot of chance it’s as painful as a knee in the neck.

Sincerely,

America Right Back at Ya.
