"Hmm 🤔 At this point, I believe it’s best to let love and understanding lead. That handshake seemed genuinely sincere. I would encourage Omoyele Sowore to reach out to VeryDarkMan as an elder, so they can have a calm and constructive conversation. Sometimes, dialogue is more powerful than conflict. Let everyone go home in peace I believe the necessary lessons have been learned.."
