Do Black Lives Really Matter?

How much do we matter in this world? Are we here looking for sympathy? Do we feel we are owed? The answer to two of these questions is yes. We go around as a race looking for handouts, still waiting on our 40 acres and a mule but news flash, we not getting it. We can't continue to sit around and think the world owes us everything because it doesn't. We have to depend on each other to get our superiority back. We have to depend on each other to learn and to succeed in life. For those of you who get mad at people that say "All Lives Matter" are hypocrites. The only time you scream black lives matter is when a white person kills a black person. That sounds kind of wishy washy to me. You want to stake our claim in the world, well let's first start by educating our children on life. Educate them on the history of our people and where we come from. Tell them about all the good our black ancestors did and not just about what white people did. Let's tell them about how a black man designed the nation and how a black man invented the blood transfusion method. Let's teach them that part. As a black man, it's my duty and obligation to make sure my people are educated and know their divine rights given to them and instilled in them by God the almighty. Let's recapture our minds. Knowledge is truly power. The more you know and think about and begin to realize things, the more you'll accomplish and the longer you live. We want the world to change, let's start with the man/woman in the mirror. Can you change yourself for the sake of your people?
