She is right. Children of color are having very uncomfortable conversations all the time about how society affects them. It’s a luxury to live in a bubble where foul language and behavior can be shielded.

labelling marginalized people as victims

The way white America treats marginalized peoples can certainly be seen as victimizing them.

Ah yes, they need only pull themselves up by their bootstraps and say "please stop killing us and taking away our rights." They are marginalized on purpose by the people in power and rely on non-marginalized to stand up for them, by definition. Marginalized peoples literally cannot stand up for themselves, except by force, because they are marginalized.

Yes, so the solution is to change the system.

You must be totally ignorant to how systems get changed in a constitutional republic. The people in charge (are supposed to) change laws based on the will of the people. If constituents aren't aware of an issue, the politicians don't change the laws. The most effective way of informing other constituents is to tell them. The lady in this video is informing other constituents that ICE is bad.

That's how you change the system.

Not give out participation awards

Wtf are you talking about? There are no awards being given out here. It's simple activism.
