Domestic Terrorism
Domestic terrorism has plagued America since it was colonized by the British 400 years ago. In the past 157 years the Ku Klux Klan has continuously terrorized people of color, and black people in particular. But many already know about the horrendous acts that this terrorist group has committed; however, not many understand how they have evolved to adapt to this new age, and continue to subject people to torture and lynchings. Interweaving their radical ideologies into the police force and utilizing their authority to cover up and support their own agendas. Furthermore, the generational trauma that has resulted from this has resonated within households, families, and cultures.

Immigration
Immigration as a whole is stigmatized within the United States of America by those who are ignorant to the reality of many immigrants previous living situations. The danger of staying in one place while going through the strenuous process of applying for immigration the legal way can be life threatening. People who understand the struggle of those that have to go from one country to another, also understand that they would undergo some of the same risk if it meant that they could escape those conditions.

BIPOC Culture/Love
People who understand and can relate to similar struggles hold a certain sense of endearment towards one another. This common understanding of systemic racism and prejudice that has been incorporated into the history of Black, Indigenous People of Color consolidates into love. Intimacy and relationships are also different for people of color. The culture that has been created around sex and its taboo nature has been negatively affecting black and people of color as they develop and go into their adulthood because it is a new experience.
