I Walk Away

The peace that follows will justify our actions now. That is what they told me. I wish I could believe them.

Standing in front of the billowing pyres and watching my city burn into a hellish nightmare, I became transfixed in shock. What is right? What is just? At what point do those words differ?

As my anniversary gift to the Minneapolis (BLM) protests of May 2020, 'I Walk Away' is a memoir detailing the horror, awe, and indecision I faced as moral lines blurred. In the end, isn't that what makes technology so manipulatively deceitful? Until you face the indifferent hatred of reality, all one's beliefs are merely protective facades.
