The loss of black lives in anything but new in America and around the world. We have seen the horrific violence perpetuatated on the black body since the first slave was kidnapped from Africa and brought to this tainted soil. History has shown exactly why we must affirm Black Lives! Not only have countless black men,women, and children already lost their lives in 2017 alone. Their families and communities are left witout justice and peace. Those are familes who not only have to mourn their loved ones but also beg for justice and humanity. Our justice system continues to support the murders of innocent black Americans and white supremacy as a whole. Not to mention the counless lives lost leading up to this year. Losing our brothers and sister should not be normal, we shouldn't forget their names because everyday it's a new body. We have to demand justice, we have to demand equality and equity. And the time is now! Please join me and the community to demand justice for those who have lost their lives due to police brutality specifically,and white supremacy in general and their families who continue to suffer.
