Oppression Is Oppression

Thank you TD Jakes for mentioning marginalized people IE Indigenous because we’ve been left out of the conversation of genocide of 100,000 million of us leaving only 2 million at best and it isn’t that much different for Indigenous peoples throughout the world that some number as little as a dozen their peoples have been so destroyed, and we’re not going to mention the fact 1 in 3 of us will have violence committed against us or have already had those encounters - sexual violence included and thus also to be murdered at 10 times the national average not to mention 0 justice for it, Jewish who have suffered atrocities beyond the realm of human concepts as we know of the Holocaust, Gypsies aka Roma who are still entirely oppressed today particularly throughout Europe as well as nearly 3 quarters of us were wiped out by the holocaust, etc. But as the chant went during the DAPL protests “What do we do when we are under attack? Stand up fight back!”

Because indeed our lives matter just as justice matters.
