A youtube channel by Saint Andrewism is a wonderful educational source which covers all the matters at hand in detail.
In particular, you may be interested in the history discussed in "The case against the Gu!IIotine", as well as "Nonviolence, a path to freedom?"
I'd also suggest Beau of the 5th Column; he has bite-sized five minute "Let's talk about"s which address specific current events as they develop, and add context via a short history lesson.
I'd finally point out that the State Monopoly on Violence is inherent.
I'd also point out that MLK was white-washed, and that neoliberal white culture curated the parts of his speeches what suited it.
I'd love to tell people that violence isn't the answer, but I can't do that unless I'm ready to feed them.
This quote, too, also is logical to me: Malatesta: "Violence .. is eminently corrupting." largely paraphrasing this one but it rings true to the authors original sentiment.
So, in short, you can feel lucky, because you have the privilege to take whichever side in debate you choose, and you don't have to feel the collective grief and anxiety [which comes with] being targeted for something as arbitrary as the amount of melanin in your epidermis.
