Black Lives Matter

Black Lives Matter is not a terrorist organization. It is a movement whose narrative has been hijacked like any other activism that promotes social change. Unfortunately, there will always be opportunists ready to re-write history as they see fit. Propaganda in the media is nothing new. In fact, it’s dependency of content thrives on negative press. However, it is decided upon the people on how you you choose to respond.

I make no apologies when acknowledging the historical value in tearing down statues of racist Generals etc. What I do not accept is the ideal that Black supremacy is on the rise because of it. Until “black dollars matter”has an impact on a global scale other than consumerism, miss me with Black nationalism rhetoric. America is built on capitalizing dollars. Research for yourself companies that support legislation that oppress BLM movement and then try again. This logic works both ways when determining if BLM is the organization taking “Gone with the wind”off of your idiot box or if you really want to spend your dollars at a retailer that is tied to “The American Legislative Exchange Council”or (ALEC).

“Black Lives Matter “is not a monicker to declare that other lives don’t matter. It was created in the midst of the senseless death of Trayvon Martin from the “Cowardly Lion” George Zimmerman. Trayvon Martin’s death was tragic in the same way in which America worships gun culture. Instead of running to his defense, she hypocritically demonized this young man. The media could not wait to post Trayvon’s social media of appreciating guns to promote him as criminal, while failing to project the same narrative when white people abide by their second amendment to carry rifles on Government property and retail chains. You can view the footage of John Crawford being shot to death in Walmart for holding a BB gun to purchase. If you can’t see the hypocrisy here, then it is because you choose not too. You are struggling with the same supremacy that you want to combat with the “terrorist BLM narrative”.

If all lives mattered, it wouldn’t be hard to agree with saying “Black Lives Matter” with out having to acknowledge that “Blue Lives Matter”. The premise was to point out that black lives matter also. Let’s acknowledge the fact that the “KKK” a white nationalist organization was responsible for the death of peaceful protester “Heather Heyer” in The Charlottesville’s protest of 2017 . The message of their campaign was not that their lives mattered also, but that no one else’s life aka skin color will infringe upon theirs. I see people going to bat for the right of the voice of people like this, but cringe at the notion of allowing black people to declare that their lives matter in light of social injustice. Indeed, this is a power struggle, but never fear that black supremacy is on the rise when at the least, black people make up 14% of the country. The fear mongering has a target audience that will indubitably drive up gun sales in order to fight the whimsical fantasies of the same organizations that play both sides against each other.

Let’s do better and use common sense. Fake news is not formatted for just one audience. That may be hard to digest, but it shouldn’t subjugate you to one side. BLM is not dominating your lifestyle, it’s inserting itself under the guise of “Civil Disobedience”. It’s demanding to be heard and taken seriously. Martin Luther King Jr. was not appreciated in his day for advocating civil rights either. He was scrutinized for his marital affairs in exchange for his silence, but he held firm. He is now held as a prominent voice of reason in the eyes of every political construct. MLK was on the right side of history as his legacy has and will continue to resonate throughout history. It is up to you to decide which side of history to impact for future generations. If all lives matter, then indeed Black lives also matter. It would not be up for debate it was privileged not too.

Wake up!

This message is intended for everyone.
