When I think about all of the injustice that "America" puts African Americans and other minorities through, it not only saddens me as a human being but it also fuels something inside of me...a fire raging deep that ignites a desire for CHANGE. That change is something we always carry with us, whether we're the psychologically "lazy" percentage of African Americans or if we're the more outgoing and progressive percentage of African Americans. And make no mistake, no one is better than the other...it's just that the "lazy" bunch just so happened to get lost with the others causing them to become complacent and bitter. And those are our people who need the MOST uplifting and assistance. If we use our knowledge and spread it for others to use then there's no limit on how impressively wide our expansion and development will be as an African American community! If we implement positive tools such as Inspiration, Faith, and Knowledge we will SURELY be able to avoid the evils of racism, prejudice, sexism, and most importantly INJUSTICE. This INJUSTICE, has become a systematically structured paradigm used to create this cycle of oppression, and I for one, refuse to stand for it! Trayvon Martin was not the first nor the last African American male to suffer the harsh realities of White America. But as a community if we begin to step outside of ourselves, completely unselfish, to help one another using 1. Inspiration (because inspiration fuels motivation) 2. Faith (because true faith does not waver) and 3. Knowledge (because knowledge enables us to succeed) than we can't lose! So whoever is reading this I want you to take something from it even long after this case and many others, because it would be a shame for another tragedy like this to occur leaving us, once again, vulnerable and wondering "now what?"


Power.
