I’m sitting in the airport and CNN has coverage of a rally at the Baltimore city hall. I just heard one girl say “We are not thugs.” You know, I agree with her. The people who are actually rallying and not burning down businesses and not looting and peacefully (albeit loudly) protesting, are not thugs. They are not the ones I have a problem with.
The people I have a problem with are the ones who reinforce the negative stereotypes.
