Black Lives Matter I know we all have different views of what "Black Lives Matter" means and how it seems to mean something different to people of different color.. I don't see it that way.... Black Lives Matter is not diversionary.. It's inclusive. In the sixties and Seventies.."Black is beautiful" wasn't diversionary it was inclusive.. Although there are many subsets definitions of "Black Lives Matter"It has become a Slogan about white supremacy and racism. It creates a coalition of black people to define injustice, and prejudice.. It's aimed at white people. and as such becomes self defining and negative and conflicting. It should be aimed at black people to promote their own skin color. To give it some perspective in the George Floyd case.. Prior to his killing.....What did Black Lives Matter ever do for him. What did Black Lives Matter mean to his relatives, and his friends..What did Black Lives Matter mean for George Floyd..When or if, was George Floyd told his life mattered? When was George Floyd shown his live mattered. They say people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones..Well a lot of black People live in glass houses.. You can't write off your own accountability blaming it ALL on someone else... When it clear as day to me.........It never should have happened.. It never should have gone there....If we ALL understand that Black Lives Matter... Who's accountable for George Floyd's death? WE ALL ARE.. |

I don't find black people any different than white people.. Lives matter only when it matters to YOU.. It's a harsh reality... void of color.. Ask not what you could have done for George Floyd....But what George Floyd could do for YOU

I think it’s about the clearest message in human history. But the question of denial is as perverse as it gets.
