OUR CURRENT STATE OF UPROAR IS NOT UNITY. CAN'T YOU SEE…
THE CALL FOR BLACKS TO STAND PROMOTES CONTINUED SEGREGATION.
BLAMING RACISM KEEPS RACISM ALIVE.
TURN YOUR RAGE INTO RATIONALE.
TAKE A SECOND TO SEE THE BIGGER PICTURE.

OUR LIVES DON’T MATTER BECAUSE THEY ARE BLACK
ALL LIVES MATTER BECAUSE THEY ARE HUMAN.
WE SHOULD BE CALLING TO BLACK, WHITE, BROWN, YELLOW, RED AND GREEN.
THEY ARE NO DIFFERENT THAN YOU AND ME.

WE SHOULD BE TAKING A STAND AGAINST HATRED AND IGNORANCE
WE MUST PROMOTE LOVE & TOGETHERNESS INSTEAD OF PROTESTING VIOLENCE & INJUSTICE.
IN A WORLD WHERE WE SHOUT WITH ANGER AND RETALIATE WITH VIOLENCE…
HOW CAN WE EXPECT ANYTHING MORE?

WE KEEP SAYING:
"YOU SHOOT OUR PEOPLE AND EXPECT US TO STAY QUIET?"
I KEEP ASKING:
"WE RETURN FIRE AND EXPECT THINGS TO CHANGE"
TAKE 100 STEPS BACK.
YOU CANNOT SOLVE ANY PROBLEM WITH TEMPORARY SOLUTIONS.

WE JUST KEEP SHOUTING:
"THEY STOLE OUR LAND, RAPED OUR PEOPLE, HOPED FOR OUR DESTRUCTION."
BUT HAVE YOU EVER STEPPED OUTSIDE OF THE RAGE BURNING IN YOUR SOULS…
TO ASK YOURSELVES WHY?

LOOK AROUND AND ABSORB THE REALITY OF LIFE ON THIS EARTH.
WE ARE THE RESULT OF LOVE LOST
SO QUICK TO JUMP TO ANGER
SO EAGER TO HOARD LOVE, CARE & UNDERSTANDING…
FOR FEAR OF GETTING HURT. WE ARE ALREADY HURTING.

WE COME TOGETHER ONLY TO TAKE CHARGE AGAINST A COMMON ENEMY

WE ARE ALL IN THE WRONG.

WE CANNOT CHANGE UNTIL UNITY BY RACE AS A SKIN TONE
IS ELIMINATED, DEMOLISHED AND DESTROYED.
WE WILL NOT CHANGE UNTIL UNITY AS A HUMAN RACE –
UNTIL STANDING AGAINST THOSE WHO THREATEN OUR BROTHERHOOD –
IS LEARNED, PRAISED, PRACTICED AND PREACHED.
