#BLACKLIVESMATTER
and all lives cannot physically matter until black lives do.
Tumblr media
With the world in an absolute shambles here we are finding ourselves outraged again but yet another black man being killed by police. Having been to the US and living in the UK, I can honestly say whole heartedly that England is fucked but America is a scary ass place.
Zero gun control, blatant and allowed racism and a lack of vetting the people they give power to is key reason. This stuff happens everywhere but at least I do not have to worry about my life coming to an end for something as simple as a cheque bouncing. And George Floyd is just another name in a very long list, not only in America, but world wide.
The World vs The Racists
In a world where we are all so divided and alone, especially at a time just as now, the only way through is with unity. Regardless if you are white, black, brown and anywhere in between, we all deserve to be treated decently and fair. Being pro black doesn’t mean anti white, or anti any race for that matter; what it means is supporting our black communities so that we are seen and treated as equal. So many black families come from poverty, pain, broken homes, abuse and things we would never be able to fathom.
Tumblr media
I cannot repeat this enough. I mean, we can say it all we want, but what do we need addressing, really? We need people who have power and authority to stop abusing it. We need more people to actually step up and let people know when they are wrong. We need people to be taken accountable for their actions as well as learning to just accept one another. The people of world shouldn’t be divided by race or gender, but, rather be defined by their actions and hold people accountable, responsible for the hideous crimes they take out on another fellow human.
When will it be enough?
