1Z-9: To Black People in America: You are not alone

I often get so frustrated and hurt by how mean and petty people can be in America these days.

And today (in fact when I was feeling just fine!) I realized: there is no way that I have been hurt that every black person in America has not known as well.

And so I decided to reach out.

I'm sorry you are so hurt. It really hurts when people are mean to you. I know it hurts.

Know that you are not alone. Many people get bullied here in America these days.

Let's reach out and come together. Welcome. Welcome to my family. Welcome to my neighborhood.

Let's pull together. We can get through this together. We can make it better together.

And know that there are people who know some of what you are going through.

We can make it together.

Know that you are not alone.

And welcome to the family.

Sincerely,

David S. Annderson
