How are you feeling? what you been up to in a time like right now?. Let's talk! I've felt quite numb to the whole ordeal with black folks and police brutality. watching the racist bigot as an officer placed his whole knee on the neck of an innocent Black man, and had no remorse on his face about it. that shit right there was much deeper than what the eye wants us to see. The oppressed system, racist, segregation, people are outraged. I'm outraged. Change is coming. Don't worry. Former President Obama mentioned it in his last speech that change doesn't stop when he leaves office; its going to be plenty more to handle for it to actually and finally take place.
Which comes to the question, that lingers in my mind about the incident. Look deeper into the action of the officer using a part of his body as a weapon to kill someone whom was innocent. Did both of them knew of each other?, Was there any awareness?. Let's view it as a metaphor, Do you, ladies, gents, young people have any one or anything kneeing your neck to the point of asphyxiation & death?. As i thought about it, personally, i do have a person's knee on my neck..... my ex. I've been trying to handle it myself to remove him out of my life for good. Yet not realizing certain situations had to happened to wake me up. Let alone the people for ACTION!!!. we need to become more Doer in our lives rather than sayers or hearers.
Action- is the fact or process of doing something, typically to achieve an aim. The aim of the movement Black Lives Matter, BLM, so we can be recognized as humans in this country we helped built. the fact that there is rioting and looting, elections is slowly approaching would be a great start to the recognition we deserve.
In my personal life, I need to officially close the chapter book of my ex, no more turning back. Looking forward in faith that change is already here!
So if you do have a person or some thing kneeing your neck; don't be afraid to ask for help or do something to help. Its all about Action. And from action and consistency comes the change.
Love is the religion. Unity is the mission. Stay safe. Stay blessed. I love ya'll. Remember embracing yourself is the key to loving yourself. Aba isieni
