@mekkaokereke I learned this lesson the hard way years ago, when police violence was just gaining media attention. I felt obligated to watch a video that was circulating, but did not realize it would shatter me so completely.
I didn't need to see the video. I knew what had happened. I was already mobilized. All it did was hurt me so badly I was useless to anyone for a while and periodically for several years after.
Records are important. So is maintaining emotional health to fight another day
