It seems as if people still don't fully understand this movement that is going on. Black Lives Matter and other organizations were created in order to combat police brutality and the murders of unarmed blacks that were a result of racism (among other agendas that I don't know).

But people still try to challenge this by saying "what about black on black crime??"
Listen. Like I've said before... Communities that have a general majority of the same ethnic background will have crime. So if you want to argue black on black crime, please do include white on white crime.

And there are hundreds of organizations that are fighting both intraracial violence, as well as police brutality and murders caused by racism.
 
The fight against police brutality exists because we were all taught the police ate here to "protect and serve". But it just seems as if non-PoC are being protected. Were just being targeted and being marked as suspicious, and in lots of cases, it ends badly because God knows what (but we know its due to various BS reasons).

And there is no war on police. There's this rumor going around that were targeting police because they've been so violent to us. Nope. If there was a war, we would see NUMBERS of police being killed on or off duty that would reach or match the number of unarmed black people murdered by police.

And one last time: saying All Lives Matter is disrespectful and it deflects the very painful reality that we are not being protected by the very system we built. Black Lives Matter is here because we are disproportionately targeted and killed by the hands of those who are supposed to protect us and those who enforce the law. There's no question that all lives matter, but if that was so, black lives matter wouldn't have been created. If you think the slogan is ONLY Black Lives Matter, you need to really get it together lol. The media is making it look like that's what it is, but it's not. K?

Positive Energy Activates Constant Elevation

When I was younger, I always wished for world peace. I wanted to achieve that somehow, either by myself or with a passionate group of people working at it together.

Little did I know that achieving world peace starts by achieving peace within your own mind, body, and soul.

Little did I know that peace from within should lead to peace within your household.

Little did I know that peace in the household should lead to peace within the family.

Little did I know that peace within the family should lead to peace with friends.
 

Little did I know that peace within the ones closest to you should lead to peace within my community.
 

Little did I know that peace within the community may never be achieved, because of the outside chaos that has destroyed my community.
 

The next steps should be to have my community united, thus inspiring outside communities to follow suit, so there can be a nationwide locking of minds and movements.
 

But I can't get to that step I just mentioned without the cooperation of family, friends, and my community.
 

Little did I know that some people...
Just don't care and never will.



Some people get angry about the tragedies that are occurring, but will sit around and wait for someone else to take care of it.

Some people just sit back and watch all of this happen, because they are too afraid of what others might think.

Some people don't have the resources or finances to do what they really want to do to give a helping hand.

Some people honestly don't know how or where to start making a change.

Some people just ignore it and say things will fix themselves... eventually.

Some people think love conquers all. Rather, they think extending a hand to your oppressor will make things better. Nope.

Some people love their oppressors more than they love themselves or the people that look like them.

Some people think they don't have to care about the people that look like them. These people are conditioned to believe that they will do no difference in doing outreach, because the people in the community *seem* ignorant.

Some people hate who they are, and can't help but hate anyone that looks like them.

Some people are just evil, selfish, and only care about their money.
