BLM

All,

Don't misconstrue my silence. As the father of 1/4 black children, I am 100% Black Lives Matter; one of them being in transition, and 100% Trans Lives Matter.

I'm planning on doing a Special edition of Meanderings, with paid content by Black authors and artists.

I accept acknowledge my white privilege. The one time I was arrested, I was released on my own recognizance, I was not cuffed and stuffed, and I was not assaulted. Had I been black or a person of color, that loitering charge arrest could have been an entirely different story.

I personally don't trust most cops. I definitely oppose racists and white supremacists, to the extent of not talking to the majority of my blood relatives.
