If black lives matter, why is that we entertain the downfall of our own black brothers and sisters. More so, why have we become the roots of their destruction, gnawing away at their systems like rodents? We advocate for equality, but we do not see ourselves as equals. We rather become Babylons, spurring heated blows, instead of being a supportive anchor.
We surely don't need a back to Africa trip to realize what assholes we are. So, we continue to neglect the harms that you've caused our own black brethren.
I hope this makes you into a strong black being since your strengths lie with your brethren's skin.
You will never truly understand such struggles until you have tasted the tired self-inflicted wounds you've created. Then and only then, justice would have been served as the intake of one's own blood, symbolizes rebirth.
Amen brother.
