I can’t breathe Cried the Black man on the street. A mantra of pain that we cannot seem to defeat.

It is an endless cycle of fighting for rights that the white man seems to recycle Not one, not two, but HUNDREDS at least, bleeding on these very streets.

Light at the End of the Tunnel Chloe Chan, 12 Watching the paint dry on a wall is really boring. But this is how I feel during quarantine at home due to the novel coronavirus.
