As times get tougher, I want to come onto this platform and encourage every single one of you to speak up about Black Lives Matter. I’m an ally and I support the movement to its fullest. I encourage you to sign as many petitions as you can, donate as much money as you can, and support the movement. SILENCE IS IGNORANCE! If you have no idea what it is going on, George Floyd, a black man, was forced to the ground and kneeled upon by a white cop. The cop’s knee was on Floyd’s throat for 9 minutes as Floyd cried out that he couldn’t breathe. He died. This was the last straw for the black community. They had been silenced for too long and have now started peaceful protests across the US that have been turned into violent riots by the police. Buildings and car were burnt and cities were turned to dust all because the system won’t protect everyone even though it’s supposed to.
My heart is heavy for the black community and I’m praying that justice will be served on a silver platter. I am with you. Black Lives Matter.
