    Universal health care; reparations; fair housing; income equality; completely new school system; completely new criminal justice system; end gerrymandering, and on and on and on.

    Maybe that's where we begin.

    How to change what's in people's hearts I don't know.

    Those are big and good ideas but they will take a while to see the needle move enough before the white establishment throws up it's hands saying "we tried."

    But a big first step would be prosecuting cops who kill black people who are unarmed and/or handuffed on the ground.

    The good part is that it was his ex-wife that outed him.
