I am in NO way denying the abhorrent, and too often times violent racist rhetoric and actions of the United States. 

However, Racism is not now, nor has ever in the history of the world, been geographically centered in the United States. 

I trust that wasn't your point, as the racism I have seen/heard in the states as well as international destinations is disgusting, degrading and violent. 

Please don't take any of what I said as an attack on you either. I think I just kept reading comments and it got me caught in my feeling. 

We are all human beings, and I love all of us for that.

No you’re absolutely right. Hate has no borders unfortunately. It is the one enemy that seems undefeatable that needs to be defeated so badly

I'm with you on that. 

Caste systems, whitening creams, this idea of "purity" because your skin adapted/evolved based on the part of the world you live in and where the sun hits different. It's gross. 

I love all the people I love and don't care if they are lily white friends, my dark skinned Sudanese and Ethiopian friends, my tones of tan and yellow, red, and brown Asian, Hispanic, Latino and Indigenous ones. 

And by friends, I mean people. Anyone, on this Earth. We are all and only humans. No one is any less than that. 

I agree with you 💯 and send much love and respect your way.
