Here is the saddest part about all of this. It is over some symbolic issues that don't really effect anyone.
If we could amend our state laws and constitution so that public schools were more evenly funded instead of depending on local wealth it would be one of the biggest boons for minorities ever, but if I tried to get a rally to support that action no one would show up. On the other hand if I start whining about a statue or a flag then thousands will rally behind me.
We need to do a better job of channeling all of this energy toward more effective causes.
