#GetHerThere: Global Support

#GetHerThere is about the ways that we can come together to support girls around the world. That’s what we did today in New York, where the @GirlsAlliance celebrated the power and potential of girls everywhere. pic.twitter.com/LUPabcCIuE

I was thrilled to speak with Amal Clooney, @MelindaGates, and Wanjiru Wahome from the @SamburuGirlsFdn, an organization in the @GirlsAlliance Network, about new ways we’re coming together to support girls globally.

Some days, it’s too much. Parents, children, families are being killed everyday. Some days, it’s too much

You try to remember a time when the name of a dead black person and a cop wasn’t in your head. A new name arrives. A new cop arrives.

— Saeed, Or The Other One (@theferocity) May 12, 2015

You look across the office at black coworker sitting at her desk. You wonder if she knows the name of this dead black person and this cop.

— Saeed, Or The Other One (@theferocity) May 12, 2015

****

You want to ask her but you’re so tired and she’s so far away — and there are the names of all these dead black people and cops between you.

— Saeed, Or The Other One (@theferocity) May 12, 2015

You consider getting the names of this dead black person and that dead black person and that dead black person tattooed on your body.

— Saeed, Or The Other One (@theferocity) May 12, 2015

****

But there will always be more names of dead black people and cops. And you only have so much body, so much black skin.

— Saeed, Or The Other One (@theferocity) May 12, 2015

Your white coworkers will read your tweets about dead black people and cops and waver, unsure of what to say. They check their scripts.

You wonder if America will ever need to learn your name, your son’s name, your sister’s name. You wonder if #YourName will trend.

You want to be parent one day but not in this America.

— Saeed, Or The Other One (@theferocity) May 12, 2015

White people who didn’t know your name until they saw your tweet just now tweet you about cops defending themselves against thugs.

— Saeed, Or The Other One (@theferocity) May 12, 2015

****

You turn into fog for a moment and no one even notices.

— Saeed, Or The Other One (@theferocity) May 12, 2015

You ask no one and everyone “At this point, what black person wouldn’t run from a cop pointing a gun at them?”
