Rebellion

[Back to Poems]

Rebellion

An eight-poem response to the death of George Floyd and the protests and riots that followed.
I'm white. I'm trying to better educate myself on systemic racism and institutional oppression. As an individual, I'm not racist, but I have to learn that I am part of a larger problem and thus it's my responsibility to be part of a larger solution. After the links to individual poems, I'm going to include links to various external resources that have helped me learn more about race and my place in fighting systematic oppression. If you have any suggestions to add to the list, please reach out to me and let me know.
