The Murders Will Increase
Why ? Because my people would rather party than face our issues. They would rather be high and drunk than face our problems.
They would rather spend their money on Name Brands instead of investing it into their community.
The police disregard my people because we have no purchasing power. We don't own nothing for them to protect, so they don't feel the need to respect us. Their job is to PROTECT the property of the people they SERVE. ( 2 Protect and Serve ). We have to get our money up to stop the brutality.
Now -what my people need to understand, is that we have psychological issues that we haven't addressed.We have self esteem issues that we need to address. We need conflict resolution skills. We also have to understand that we are under attack. Don't believe me ? Peep..
How many of the brothers that shoot guns can manufacture a gun ? Where are these guns coming from ? How many people in YOUR hood can manufacture cocaine,or heroin from start to finish? But how many blacks are in jail for gun or drug charges ? It's a war on drugs ,but we have more drugs in 2014 in the ghetto than ever before. It's so much weed out here that crack-heads are selling it. I wonder why the crime is rising ???
The murders shall increase until we wake up, and realize our own worth.
How can we stop the murders ? Marching is cool, simply because it brings us together and makes us push in the same direction. BUT.... we have to continue that momentum.
How many people go home after marching and do nothing else ? How many people do nothing and just say " Pray on it " ? Dont they know that - Faith without WORK is dead - ?
Picture this : You own a Car Factory. You imagine a perfectly built car. Now, the materials are in front of you to build, but you keep imagining how good the car will look once it's together. Will the car get built ? You have to put that work in. It's the same with the streets- you can pray and march,but the real work starts after that.
The real work is- Problem-solving and execution.
What is the problem ?
VIOLENCE: Why are they killing each other like this ? When was the last time I personally talked to a troubled youth?
No JOBS : How can we find employment for our people ? How can we own our own businesses,so that we can employ individuals in our community?
Poor EDUCATION: How can we change the curriculum in our schools, so that our children can compete with other kids for a variety of jobs? How can we get grants, or loans to start a Trade School? ( Like O.C. White ) Can we put a Board together that can have job/educational contacts for our community? ~ Temp Service reps/School counselors etc..
UNITY : How can bring people together that have so many differences in opinion?
To sum it up - we need these and many more questions answered, but we have to do it one step at a time. We have to be tolerant of each others differences, we have to respect each others opinion and space, we have to see every man as our brother - every woman as our sister- and ever child as our child. Then will come unity ( comm -unity) .
Until we can bring solutions The Murders Shall Increase...
