US BEING TURNED AWAY FROM HOSPITALS AGAIN AND AGAIN IS WHAT’S CAUSING THE RAPID SPREAD IN OUR FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES




US BEING TURNED AWAY FROM HOSPITALS AGAIN AND AGAIN IS WHAT’S CAUSING THE RAPID SPREAD IN OUR FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES


I listened to all the 18min and 50sec of this looking for the one main factor that we keep hearing about but NEVER speaking on;

we hear that now we’re the most impacted even though we started out small. We hear about our lack of social distancing and our vulnerability due to underlying health concerns. And we speak on these things.

What we consistently hear about but don’t speak on is that those of us dying did visit the hospital 2 or even 3 times and multiple times are turned away without even being tested!

Hence it spreading to multiple family members and throughout our communities.

It’s commonsense. Let me Blacksplain:

If only 1% of us start out being infected while 99% of them are, then the ONLY

variable that could account for us being the most impacted in disproportionate  numbers in such a short time is if we’re turned away in disproportionate numbers!

We see others with the same health concerns (maybe not as bad as ours, granted, but they’re still there).

We see others not practicing social distancing so that’s clearly not it.

We are most impacted since many of us are working in a non stay-at-home capacity, but none of these are enough to account for 70% of the deaths!

Again, if just one of us is infected and 99 of them are, but they get hospital treatment and isolation and that 1 is sent back home to infect his or her family and community,

then whether they die or not, they’re passing it on to family members and neighbors on their trips home, even though they’re doing ALL THE RIGHT THINGS!

We see this in our newsfeeds how multiple family members die from exposure as our folk keep getting sent back home!

We see it, yet because no one speaks on it, we don’t either!

The biggest factor is they’re turning us away.

The biggest factor is they’re turning us away.

The biggest factor is they’re turning us away.

It’s like I’m talking to myself here...

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PERSUASION AND CONVICTION

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PERSUASION AND CONVICTION Decades ago, in my teens, my oldest brother and I had a talk where I said, “Can you believe that they’re having another gay pride parade?” He told me that he participated in a gay pride parade. Then we just stared at one another - and because many don’t know how to communicate without language, I will translate: Me: (But you’re not gay) Him: (True, but our struggle is their struggle and theirs is ours) Me: (Hmmm. Now I have to rethink everything because this is my brother whom I love challenging my core beliefs). I was persuaded that day. Today, my brother is long dead but I’m still reposting. That’s called CONVICTION.

ON SCAPEGOATING WHITE SAVAGERY

 Those who brought their CHILDREN to lynchings dressed in their Sunday best are not ghouls or monsters or any more racist than white folk are today. They’re just people conditioned to do what white savagery tells them is acceptable. And decades from now, they’ll scapegoat the white folk today who ignore the hashtags, refuse to say fire ALL of the white cops from elsewheres, creating the most incarcerating nation on the planet...EVER! All while continuing their 22nd century conditioned evils without a thought of repenting. It’s like there’s some sort of spell...

When white folk dump, we can’t get Angry about it

I got angry over a white (almost white) person saying that I’m overreacting. Immediately afterwards, I berated myself, thinking that I should’ve held my cool. But just as we laud those black heroes who articulate the pain rather than express it, we condemn ourselves for feeling what is normal to feel.  Part of colonization says that I have no right to be angry and that my anger is naturally perceived as a threat so it’s in my best interest to hold my tongue. This is not normal. We must break the economic, physical, emotional and spiritual consequences to be true human beings. Otherwise we’re just lying to ourselves. “How dare they get angry over our oppression of them!”
