401 years of white knees on black necks.
From slavery to redeemer states to the KKK to Jim Crow to lynching and each and every day since and in between.
Every right gained has met the resistance of a white knee.
Be calm?
Be patient?
Change takes time?
After a while, incremental sounds like never. Especially when you're the ones struggling to breathe under those white knees.
