b"Instead of the usual stories this week, GamerDude talks about the Black Lives Matter movement. As an old, white guy, he recognizes that the movement isn't about him, but also knows that he has a voice that he can use to support the movement, and perhaps explain it to those who might not understand it. He explains how Black Lives Matter actually means Black Lives Matter Too, because in the current climate, too many people - including the police and the criminal justice system - place less value (or no value) on black lives. In old, white guy language, GamerDude explains that the point of Black Lives Matter is to draw attention to this fact, and to demand change in a system that is being implemented and enforced in a racist way. He borrows some analogies to try to explain that, just as it's true that All Houses Matter, but when your house is on fire, Your House Matters and needs immediate attention, the Black Lives Matter movement is intended to highlight the need for immediate attention to the racism inherent in our system.\\n\\nGamerDude also shares a post he made to social medial in which he talks about how he cannot imagine the fear that black Americans, and other people of color, face every day, and that he wants to use his voice to help spread the information about, and support, the Black Lives Matter movement.\\n\\nHe also steps into the role of presidential speech writer, because he is well aware of the fact that the current occupant of the White House is incapable of leading in\\xa0the way that this\\xa0country needs to be lead, is incapable of unifying the country around a common goal, and is unable to heal the open wounds caused by\\xa0the racism in our system. GamerDude shares the kind of speech he believes an actual, functioning president should deliver to help move this country forward towards resolving the problems that Black Lives Matter is showing us."
