I Sy's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's up to Size? Team? You're listening to. The Daily Game a compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that I've found inspiring and helped me through the game of life. Today's quote comes from Angela Davis, a prominent figure in the US civil rights movement. In the nineteen sixties, she found a Critical Resistance, a national grassroots organization dedicated

to building a movement to abolish the prison system. Angelus says, in a racist society is not enough to be non racist. We must be anti racist. It's true. You have to fight racism. You can't just be a non racist. It's not good enough just to sit back and say, well, I'm not racist. You have to address racism as it showed its face. If I'm around somebody and they might be racist against white people, you know, I'm going to ask them why. I'm going to ask them, you know

where does that come from? Well, you know, it's not all white people. You can't put it all on white people. You can't put it on on Mesicans, you can't put it all on Chinese people. You can't do that. They might call me an asshole and move on. But at least I thought it. I stood for it, and I said my piece. We have to fight racism. You can't just be anti it, you know what I'm saying. It's you have to look at it like any other cancer

in the system. Racism plagues the world. You know, wherever you go, there's certain people that don't like other people because of their race. But it's the stupidest thing in the history of the world. You know, just looking at somebody in the side and because of that race, I don't like them. I'll never understand it. I've always judged the devil by its deeds. I've always looked at people as being the same. The guy that looks like me

might put the knife in my back. The whitest guy might be the guy that drags me out of that fire. So my theory of looking at somebody for race is stupid. But in a society that we are in, it's not enough just to be non racist. We must be anti racist. That's Angela Davis. This has been another ice cold fact from me iced tea. Listening again tomorrow when I drop

some wisdom on your ass Till then, stay safe. Stay smart and don't stay quiet when you know your fellow man, or your neighbor, your friends are facing undeserved racism on a daily faces, I Seize Daily Gaming.
