Blog 5: Fuck Racism
As a white person, I’ve been a little confused about how to participate in this conversation. I’ll admit that initially, my plan was to stay pretty under the radar because I’ve been worried that whatever I say might be misunderstood and could bring unwanted negative attention or criticism to the brand, but the more I think about it and the more I learn about the story, I know silence is no longer an option. Even if we piss a few people off and lose some followers, it’s more important to me to stand for what is right and clarify that Wild Goose Chasers stakes a firm stance against racism and oppression. Although we at WGC firmly believe that all feelings are valid, I’d like to make a distinction that racist or oppressive feelings are the exception. All humans deserve a chance to live freely without the constant fear of being harmed by the very people who are supposed to protect us. It’s truly a shame what happened to George and every other victim of police brutality but we must not let these souls go in vain. We must make some serious changes and we must do better.
