Protesting is one of our rights, yes. Its also a placebo that replaces responsibility for action. Chicago is a killing field? Lets wait for the govt to do something. Young black men dropping like flies? Lets blame poverty, not immorality.
You cant change your community unless you change the idea that poverty and racism cause child abuse and neglect. Eating your own is not about poverty and accountability isnt just for politicians and rich folk. Want to change the world, start by admitting that it isn't our circumstance that creates selfish individualism. Our selfishness creates the circumstance.
Racism thrives because its easier to blame than to work for real change. Protesting has turned into grade school name calling and has become a distraction from the real issue,
A complete mutual disregard for common sense solutions. Keep waiting on the government and blaming everyone but the individuals accountable. Free food, clothing, shelter and school but its racism that makes for failure? Dr. King didnt think so. He'd be ashamed of protestors today and shocked by the view that racism supposedly turns folks into abusive parents, rude bullies, and hatefilled murderers.
When the signs say PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY NOW, ill start taking protestors seriously. I grew up in absolute poverty and with racism. We knew the answer: work together for a better life and then they cant ignore you. Sit on your ass, neglect your community and display ignorance at every turn and you get Trump as President and killing fields for neighborhoods. Keep thinking they care what you think! They care what you do and protesting this way does nothing.
