					<description><![CDATA[A man was murdered by a policeman before our very eyes, and White America was bored enough to finally pay attention, and suddenly, they care. On one level, it’s heartening to see such broad support for the pain caused by the racism of our country. I’d rather the masses say something over nothing. But on another level, all the words flying around right now sink the ache of racism deep to my bones. As I listen, I can’t stop wondering if these newly awoken voices care enough to actually change for the long haul.]]></description>

As I&#8217;ve stepped back to distance from the clamor, I&#8217;ve found myself looking for the people who are standing between. Truth be told, I&#8217;m not currently one of them.
