We have been acting for years to bend that arc....are you?

Sadly you said

But we have to act, to "bend" it. It doesn't just happen with time and no action.

Who ever said besides you that Blacks, PoC, Jews, Women, Native American, Muslims, LGBT have not been fighting for their rights.

The arc of justice is for all peoples. We do it together or not at all.

I am appalled you said this.
