Journey For Justice Day 4: Last leg to Uvalde
So it is more than egregious when we are told we are to have the sheriff's department of a small town, Carrizo Springs, just outside Ulvade escort us through the town. I'm livid and Marina is furious.
I post to the list, still attempting to be diplomatic with this group of mostly white, mostly recently-to-the-fight activists that "armed men make me uncomfortable and we protest the 'escort' and will skip it if it occurs".
Marina is indignant that here we are, going to meet with some of these parents, parents who have not 'only' have children who have been murdered, but are actually suing the law enforcement for not protecting their children that we are having 'protect' us with an escort us through town. She begs us to be more aware and sensitive and at the very least support these parents and community by NOT making nice with a sherrif's department that is protecting us yet failed to even try to protect their children
And lastly, we then pass through Crystal City where u.s. citizens of japanese decent were interned/imprisoned during world war II. When we post this information to the list, no one responds and we just continue to drive by, not making these connections. Tearz
