How do we end systemic racism in our society? The only way to see ourselves in a true light is to listen to the voices of so many who are hurting and grieving, Bush said in a statement Tuesday.
Those who set out to silence those voices do not understand the meaning of America or how it becomes a better place, he said.
Bush said he and his wife, Laura, have resisted the urge to speak out, because this is not the time for us to lecture. It is time for us to listen.

I wondered throughout Dubya’s tenure whether his right-wingery was a pose to win office. I wonder no more.

What in the Sam Hill was he talking about? Who is trying to silence protesters? Is he conflating peaceful protesters with rioters? And if he’s doing that why in the Sam Hill is he doing that?
And how are we supposed to listen when rioting is going on?
To: DarthVader
Protest away. Who cares? Burn down a business? Not sure what they teach in Yale, but that is NOT protesting.

Public and continued dishonesty is a terrible thing. Particularly from a person of influence.
