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

This beautiful, incredible child represents so many black children that are growing up knowing they live in a society that devalues their lives and the lives of their loved ones. This is not something that is taught, they feel it because they live it. No media propaganda, false narrative, or skewed statistics can diminish or discredit that reality. These childhood experiences at such a tender age will leave a heaviness on her heart that will stifle her innocence, prematurely accelerate her maturity, have a strong affect on her self-image and how she values her self-worth, and play a major role in shaping the adult she’ll become. Just another reminder that must continue to fight – if not to save for ourselves, to save our children.
