Hi I am here to address a very serious topic please be warned that this is about BLM or Black Lives Matter so I know you may not agree with everything im saying and I fully support that, you are aloud to have your own opinion.

So I still don't understand a lot about BLM (I will be using the abbreviation so I don't have to constantly right the full Black Lives Matter also just to save space.) but what I do know is that people are frustrated and upset. I was on the internet and I realized that the reason for the sudden protests was because of the death of a man named George Floyd ( Just so you know I do not intend for you or anyone to get mad or triggered I am just stating what I know at the moment feel free to correct me if im wrong.) and police brutality. ( From what I understand the officer who caused the death of George Floyd did get a life sentence again I could be wrong feel free to correct me if so.) I also know that people are causing riots ( I don't fully know though correct me if im wrong.) and having peaceful protests ( I don't fully know though correct me if im wrong.) but I also know that not everyone thinks that All Lives Matter or ALM which is something I think is a way that everyone should at least care just a smidge about because that means that everyone is treated equal so if your native american you are just like people with lighter skin just like how indians should be treated the same as the people with lighter skin have the same opportunities so everyone should be treated equal because no one should feel lucky to be white and no one should rub it in someone's face and feel more privileged because of their skin because its just genetics it's not like something someone can control. So as a 7th grader I think I have a better understanding of this situation more than some adults. So I hope you try to at least see where im coming from if not thats just as ok to.
