Have you been wondering whether to speak out or stay silent when it comes to the Black Lives Matter movement?
As a white British woman living from a place of massive privilege, I am no longer willing to stay silent.
Saying nothing is the problem.
Turning the other way and pretending this isn't happening has been going on for too long.
Yes I'll likely make mistakes, say the wrong thing and offend when this was never my intention, but this discomfort is nothing compared to the pain and suffering people of coloured have endured for lifetimes.
With love,
