People aren't ready for this conversation, but they better get ready. These are valid questions to ask based on what's going on today. Blacks are sick & tired of being mistreated by those in authority. Ever since blacks were brought over as slaves, the black race has been horribly mistreated. Other races can stand up for themselves and things get done, but when blacks rise up, everyone has a problem with it and that crap isn't right. Blacks are expected to lie down and accept being treated like dogs. That may have worked during the Civil Rights era, but this younger generation of blacks isn't having it. Peaceful protests only work if blacks feel like they're being heard. It doesn't take much for young blacks to get riled up against racial injustice. Tamir Rice, Eric Garner, Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, Sandra Bland, Ahmaud Arbery & George Floyd are some of the notable cases of young black men and women that lost their lives at the hands of crooked cops. Protests & calls for justice took place, and the offenders got off. How much are blacks supposed to deal with before enough is enough?
As a Christian, I understand the power of prayer and know it brings change. Prayer changes things only if action follows. Not every black person is a Christian, so every black person shouldn't be expected to pray and not take action. What's going on today is blacks are sick & tired of not being heard, and they're taking matters into their own hands.
