Change...It's possible today...RIGHT?Several years ago a (now deceased) rapper put out a song entitled Changes. Where the chorus says to crime, drugs and black violence..."that's just the way it is, somethings will never change"
Although that's how he felt before being killed himself due to violence. I don't believe that in my heart. I can not accept that as a people, black people are killing one another...AND THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT IS?! No matter what color you are...how can any of use accept the genocide of a race?! Men, women and children. As I turn on the television this morning...6:30 in the morning!!! Getting ready to go to work early, I see on the news, four people murdered...ANOTHER FAMILY GONE!
It's clear to me, that the new civil rights movement has to be an evolution of morality and integrity and self worth! Is this what Martin Luther King Jr. dreamed of, when he wanted to see black people free?! OF COURSE NOT! But now that we have arrived in this promised land of freedom...now through crime, drugs and violence we enslave ourselves! While our country fights a war on terror. We fight to preserve a country that's destroying itself in the biggest inner cities! We are tired of people being killed, people losing their lives! Notice, I didn't say we're all tired, because there are enemies out there praying on the innocent. Waiting to strike and take away our breath. ADULTS, CHILDREN, BLACK, WHITE, MEXICAN...WHATEVER! We are all at risk to the monster we've created in these times through violent and vulgar entertainment, the manufacturing and selling of drugs.
Change, can come if WE like Martin Luther King JR. did...WAKE UP! SPEAK UP! GET TIRED OF...! And fight for our right to live in this world without violence! We as a country, can no longer afford to turn a blind eye to all the things we know are bad influences on our society. If we continue in the direction we're going...how long will we have a nation to defend against terror?
