and countless other Black men and women killed by police in recent years."The entire globe has stood up and said to the African American people, 'We see you and we hear you. How can we help?' We've never been there before."
"Rage is justified under oppression. But it also can be really dangerous," he said."You got to be careful not to be consumed by your own rage, and that's something that I've worked really hard on." "Peaceful protests put a mirror to the demonic imagery of your oppressor. And the more still you are in your peaceful protest, the more clear the mirror is for your oppressor -- for the world to see and for them to see themselves," Smith said."I was really encouraged by how powerfully this generation was able to hold that mirror, and then the response of the world seeing and responding. I was deeply encouraged by the innate connectivity of the protesters, globally.
However, Smith said he hopes that part of what people learn from being confronted with the realities of racism is how destructive"loveless, godless leadership" can be on the world.
