Listen and Make a Difference

I remember the civil rights/equal rights movements in the sixties and seventies. Throughout the years there has always been racial tension. This last year it seems it came to a head and now every day we hear of more police brutally and killings that people feel come from racial actions.

Handing out money, taking down statues and destroying books, movies that might offend someone is not going to solve the problem. This is not what the Civil Rights leaders fought for they just wanted Equal Justice for all, a chance to walk side by side not in front or behind. There are people of every culture who fought for this right. Only we the people standing together can make this world a better place for our descendants. Sometimes we need to be offended to make changes.
