Having watched Michael Holding's interviews over BLM, I was grateful he had the space, and grace, to expand and add to his interviews.
Tough reading at times, as he pulls few punches when it comes to describing violence.
It ends on a note of cautious optimism.

A must read in a true educational and social sense.  Heart wrenching, hopeful and informative, Holding spins into a truth the horrors on which our society has been built and how to topple them together.
