Bloody July

July has been a month of death and turmoil.

We have viewed grown men being murdered by the police and viciousness from a presidential candidate.

But, what hurt my heart the most, was when a old friend's son was murdered on his way to work.

College sophomore on his way to his job, shot by unknown assailants.

This is a very scary time. We got to do something. 

Voters are apathetic about the candidates and threaten to stay home. 

This is a very scary time. We got to do something. 

If, you don't vote , you have given away your voice. You must be mindful,  that every congressional seat is up for reelection.  The supreme court appointment is up. We stayed home in 12 & we elected a obstructive congress.

We must fight police brutality,  we must fight systematic racism,  we must fight violence in our communities,  we must fight for equal rights, we must fight for a level playing field.

We CAN'T LET TRUMP AND HIS TEAM win.

Again, again and yet again

Dallas. Peaceful protest. Police doing their jobs. Sniper kills police. Media and zealots want to blame the black lives movement.

No, no, and no.

I do not advocate for police to be killed.
I do not advocate for anyone to be killed.

These are two distinct separate issues.
Stay woke or the zealots will completely divide the folks who want to help.

Communication and cultural competency is the key. Most folks fear what they do not know or understand. 

Stay Woke.

Mobilize,  Strategize, Engage.

Again. ..why Again

Again,  a black man is killed at the hands of the police. 

Again,  anger, fear, outrage and sadness has set in.

We talk, we March,  we facebook and tweet; yet there is no change.

We pray, we scream, cry and wail; but nothing changes.

The police are sworn to protect and serve everyone,  even people of color,  even black folks. However,  some don't.  Some won't. 

It's more then just registering to vote, it's more then voting;  it is engaging with the powers to be of what we will and will not accept.

We must DEMAND CHANGE.
We must STAND FAST, UNTIL OUR CHANGE IS IMPLEMENTED!
