I truly believe in the uplifting message about humanity's future in my novel. So from time to time, you'll see a post like this one promoting it. I genuinely apologize if it bothers you. Thank you for understanding.

@MichelleObama Let's call it what it is: institutionalized racism. Just like Coronavirus, there's no vaccine. Just like Coronavirus, it kills by suffocation while the victim dies crying out: I can't breathe, I can't breathe but differently from Coronavirus staying home doesn't help.
