An uplifting story about a racist incident? Yes, when law enforcement and the mayor back a mother and her family victimized by hate speech. And also yes: the franchise owner has been terminated by Dairy Queen.
“There are, like, 100 pages.”
“I’m deleting Instagram,” 13-year-old Alex said, “because it’s weird.”

All of us, no matter our race, should fight against any form of racism as Deianeira Ford and the Zion police did. And social media--when it's well used--can be an amazing tool to change the world for the better.
