No, because of the pandemic, because I have to work, and because I have kids. I wish I could, though. I donated to some civil rights organizations and plan to donate to and vote for politicians who support civil rights and police reform, and to do what I can to register/encourage others to vote. I worry a lot about the protesters, because even though they are outside and most are wearing masks, it is just a lot of people crowded together for a long time, chanting and singing, and I think there will be COVID spread. We'll likely see the increase in two or three weeks. I understand why people are doing it, for sure -- for many people, this is just as much a matter of life and death as the pandemic is -- and I appreciate that most are trying to take precautions, but the virus doesn't really care whether your motivations are good or not.
