Thank you for taking the time to share your message and experiences. You seem like a very good person. I agree with a lot of what you say, and also relate very much to your message about accepting the burden of personal responsibility - as difficult and unfair as that may feel at times. > So, protests have a place. But the way that BLM projects it is, IMO, destructive, even if there are no riots. This is a position that I also very much agree with, and something I think many people either do not understand, or will not admit. I've seen your other responses to replies on this thread and think you are right that there are many, many people that feel very similar to the way you (we) do. If you wouldn't mind sharing more info on the (your?) organization you spoke of, helping students and coordinating volunteers, I'd love to learn more about your efforts to lift up people around you.
