We try not to watch too much news because the news brings doom! However, with everything that is going on in the world we must stay abreast. I found myself not watching because it’s so heart breaking, but my kids are all over it with social media and as parents we have to be able to educate our kids and keep them safe through that education. Black Lives matter does not mean that any other race is less but don’t just discard the life of a black person because of the color of their skin. That is a simple civil right that we are asking and have been fighting for, for generations.
The definition of civil is of the ordinary life of citizens, polite or courteous. Everyone deserves that right but not everyone has to fight for it. I’ve seen post saying that George Floyd was a thug and he deserved to die. What George deserved was the police to be civil, to do their job, protect and serve our community. Our kids, our black men should not be afraid of the police but we should look to the police for help and know that they will do their job! Each one, Teach one is a saying that originated from America during slavery times. Slaves were seen as chattel (a personal possession) and therefore denied an education so when one slave learned to read or write, it became his duty to teach someone else. I say this to say racism is learned its not born. It’s our duty as citizens of all colors to each one, teach one! People have asked how can we help …this is the opinion of CHR and no one else...start by each one, teach one. Understand that not every black person is a thug or a n$$$$, not every cop is bad, and not every white person is a racist. We are all human and as such deserve to be treated civil. Civil rights is a basic right that everyone should have… teach your kids. J. Edgar Hoover said that the greatest threat to the United States of America is Negro Unity. What does Negro Unity mean to you? How can we help? Each One Teach One! Black Lives Matter! Credit Hope Repair Stands… Black Lives Matter. #Blacklivesmatter #Eachoneteachone #unity #justiceforfloyd
