EP11 | Is It All White?
KyGreenSpeaks responds to the questions in the series #AskABlkGuy:
Do you feel like the white community is getting so involved with this movement that their actions are often at the forefront of the media? In other words, this is a movement about the equal treatment of Black Americans and black people in general, yet everywhere you look it's photos of white people protesting, white people yelling, white people being arrested, white people marching......has this turned into yet another opportunity for white people to make something about themselves? (I myself am white so I am not trying to be a jerk; it's a real question)
