I think because of Summer of Our Lorde, I am thinking more and more about our [insert poc, woc, queer & trans, working class here] anger. Note how this man's anger simmers and then righteously explodes. I felt like I was watching myself waiting to speak....except, as a woc, I may not have spoken at all and let it simmer...because too many of us don't speak our anger and let it sit...and now imagine that anger sitting somewhere in my stomach, twisting, growing, into something dangerous....like violence...or cancer...

Anyway, here's the clip.
