Let’s talk about quarantine. Everyone felt excited to jump into free time with no teachers and no annoying students, but time has dwindled. We need to go back into these streets. Times feel weird — the black community experienced a low time because of some hurtful comments from the Barb leader, Emma Lu, Frank Ocean is being annoying, and COVID-19 has not reached its peak yet. Please stop the simulation, we want out.
Please. Not Emma Lu. This past week, an Instagram account uploaded a video from 2014 of the famous Tik Toker, Emma Lu, onto the internet. In the video, she referred to the black people around her as n-words. Since the video surfaced, thousands of people have commented on their emotions and thoughts on her actions. Her social footprint gave everyone hope that maybe not everyone acts ignorant, but evidently, no one can find themselves exempt from ignorance.

Quarantine felt cute at first, but times now feel hard. We need Frank to post more than just his cute photos. We need content. We need music.
