I love my people. I love helping them, but I hate wasting my time. I hate being ineffective even more.

Sometimes, you can’t save Black people crying out for help, but it’s not for the reasons you may think. Sometimes our dream killers aren’t White people. Sometimes, our dream snatchers, dream killers, and fun sponges look just like us. Sometimes our own people are our worst enemies.
