Today we made a statement – in this life it’s not about ONLY taking a stand for the things that effect you directly – it’s about taking a stand on behalf of “Humanity”…. I can’t rest until things are different – today we marched a multi ethnic March on behalf of peace and integrity – if you don’t stand for something you will for for anything – safety in our communities and the belief in the “system” needs to be restored – the power in numbers was displayed today/. As comfortable as one would assume I am – I am very uncomfortable cause I have a daughter and we ALL deserve to feel safe……. We don’t call 911 to BE murdered we call them to protect us from being murdered- this need to change-

This so called “unity marching”is angering me.The killing of blacks in America has been going on for years.Black people have been saying this forever.I know this isnt the politically correct way to respond.But,we need some real honesty in this process of change.Our issue is being validated because “others”are involved!The reporting of the demonsrations have been done racially.Theyve been comparing how the protesting is diffrent in New York from Ferguson.WHY!! You cant get a current Police Officer to apologize.This problem is about a failure to have compassion.These people hate and they dont care for change.We can talk,sit in,march and chant.It wont change hate,we have evolved as human beings on somethings.But,the ability to talk honestly and act with true integrity is something that I dont see us evolving towards.
