“There is nothing ‘black’ about rioting”

[Hiraeth]

Actor Jesse Williams unloads on Baltimore critics in passionate Twitter essay
The "Grey's Anatomy" actor wrote about the prevelance (sic) of rioting throughout history

On Monday evening, as Baltimore was rocked by violent and non-violent protests alike, actor Jesse Williams, known for his role on “Grey’s Anatomy” and for occasionally weighing in on issues of race and police brutality, wrote what amounted to an essay on the history of rioting.

Where are all the think pieces & coverage of the pathology of white culture every time white frustration vents violence & destruction?

8. At least they're doing it for a good cause.

They're getting discriminated against, murdered in the streets, so the Blu Klux Klan can claim to justify their paychecks. Can't say I blame black people for having a riot.

When white people riot, it's over sports...
