Fatuma Hussein: Reflections while looking forward to 2021

Our system is unjust and broken. For many black and brown communities, we suffer a lot, and it is not right. Notably, it is not suitable for young people of color to feel helpless and hopeless. That harm must stop. Some may say that is not going to happen. I say, yes, we can. We can stop this injustice by eradicating racism, just like trying to eliminate the coronavirus. The pandemic has taught us valuable lessons.
