We can't even...

I really need to write on this thing more often. I'm constantly seeing a barrage of things that would make for good material and drive home the point that this world cares very little for it's people, and in particular, cares even less for people who look like me. In today's edition of ridiculous racial profiling we see a man get stopped for the simple act of being black and exercising at night. As a black male in his 20's who has recently taken up jogging as a way to get back in shape, this has secretly been a worry of mine. Some people may ask about why he was exercising at night, who knows? He may have just felt inclined to go for a jog. This may be his only free time to do it. Either way, the cop comes up with the flimsiest reason to stop him and it's all on tape. Also, I think I might make this into a series called "we can't even....".

  1. Why is Plant Fitness 24 hours? Because it's hard to fit exercise into your life. Plus it's hot in the day time!!
