I wasnt going to say anything but my heart wouldnt let me be quiet. Black men stop being victims or brutes and STAND & DIE for whats right even when its not whats popular. We can change things if we want it bad enough. We are not powerless souls in the United States of America. We dont need to raise our voice or resort to violence in the painful aftermath of injustice. Our God built us to be strong, we need to show our strength. Lets remember the black warriors like Marcus Garvey and Martin Luther King that gave their lives so we could be empowered to vote with our dollars and at the ballot. Lets get so angry, so frustrated that we go to college and get the tools to build up our families and communities. Lets get so pissed with unfair treatment black males get from the police officers that we show up at the voting station the way show up at football games and concerts. Im tired of us talking and talking about the challenges of being black in America as if we are powerless to change things. Lets stop talking with our words and speak louder with our actions. Vote like you deserve better. If you dont see a candidate, a business, a tv station, or a community leader for you to believe in then maybe your the face of the change we need.
