I feel like we have taken a hundred thousand steps backwards....black lives matter. Why is that so hard...we toiled this land in slavery to make it what it is today!!!! We just can't get a break!!! All the way back to Emmit Till, my black brothers have had this stigma attached to them. Dogs, water hoses, shootings, lynchings----why why why!!! Don't get me wrong all police are not bad, my best friend in the world is a police officer--so I am not speaking about them all. Just the racist, cowardly ones that make my daughter afraid for my grandson who is only 12 to go out alone. She's had to tell him what to do if the police stop you, while trying to also let him know that the police are there to help.
I was overwhelmed with joy when thousands of youth peacefully protested in my hometown, Baltimore, yesterday. Everyone was kind and demonstrated what a true protest is.
I am PRAYING for peace and change in this racist America. I pray that voters will do something about this in the polls. Yes, I do believe it starts at the top.
If you are not black or a person of color, you will never have to worry about this for your sons, husbands, brothers, uncles, and grandfathers.
White America gets to kill and murder and then be escorted out with a bullet-proof vest to jail.
NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE
