Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)'s impact has similar characteristics to racism and its effects. First, there is no known immunity to COVID-19 or racism. Second, we wear uncomfortable masks to protect us from the virus. Being black in America requires wearing an uncomfortable invisible mask, hiding anxiety and fear. Third, physical distancing is promoted to reduce COVID-19 transmission. With racism, physical distancing has occurred from the Atlantic Slave Trade to segregation and redlining. COVID-19 has punished communities of color, just like racism has. COVID-19 has suffocated America just like racism does to blacks. If America is tired of COVID-19, imagine how blacks feel.
2019冠状病毒病（COVID-19）的影响与种族主义及其影响具有相似特征。首先，对COVID-19或种族主义都不存在已知的免疫力。其次，我们戴着不舒服的口罩来保护自己免受病毒侵害。在美国身为黑人则需要戴着一个不舒服的隐形口罩，隐藏焦虑和恐惧。第三，提倡保持身体距离以减少COVID-19传播。而对于种族主义，从大西洋奴隶贸易到种族隔离和划分红线，一直都存在着身体距离。COVID-19惩罚了有色人种社区，就像种族主义一样。COVID-19让美国窒息，就像种族主义对黑人所做的那样。如果美国对COVID-19感到厌倦，想象一下黑人的感受。
