We See Lies When we stop allowing ourselves to be blind to what’s true then we will see real progress.

THIS IS NOT ANYTHING NEW.  BLACK  PEOPLE IN AMERICA LOST MORE LIVES FROM GUN VIOLENCE THAN ANY OTHER RACE IN AMERICA’S HISTORY.  BUT THERE WAS NEVER BEFORE A NATIONWIDE CONVERSATION ABOUT BANNING GUNS UNTIL GUNS ARE YOU USED TO HURT WHITE PEOPLE.  EVEN THE NRA IS  RECONSIDERING THE GUN PRESENCE IN SOCIETY.  WE HAVE LOST COUNTLESS BLACK CHILDREN TO GUN VIOLENCE AND I AM SPEAKING FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE WHEN I SAY THIS.  THE BLACK ON BLACK VIOLENCE IN THE URBAN STREETS OF CHICAGO  AND ACROSS THE COUNTRY IS ROOTED IN SELF HATRED AND POVERTY WHICH IS THE STRUCTURE OF AMERICA’S PLAN  TO US KEEP  KILLING  OURSELVES.  UNTIL WE INTERRUPT  THEIR STRATEGY WE WILL CONTINUE TO BE  VICTIMS  WITHOUT ACCOUNTABILITY.  GUNS ARE NOT CREATED BY THE BLACK COMMUNITY BUT THEY ARE PLACED IN  OUR NEIGHBORHOODS. SO LET’S ASK OURSELVES, WHO CREATED GUN VIOLENCE?
