After seeing all that has been going on in the news recently, I've been absolutely appalled and deeply saddened. The police brutality and how the black community has been continuously treated is completely unacceptable.
Enough is Enough.
Although you may not think it's doing much, you must use your voice and speak up! Spread the word - spread knowledge, educated yourself and others.
Stand for what is right and join the fight for equality.
We must do our best, no matter how big or small you think your actions may be, to support those facing these issues.
We must fight and promote meaningful change for a better future.
"I understand I will never understand. However, I stand."
BLACK LIVES MATTER.

Oxford Town, Oxford Town
Everybody's got their heads bowed down
The sun don't shine above the ground
Ain't a-goin' down to Oxford Town
He went down to Oxford Town
Guns and clubs followed him down
All because his face was brown
Better get away from Oxford Town
Oxford Town around the bend
Come to the door, he couldn't get in
All because of the color of his skin
What do you think about that, my friend?
Me and my gal, my gal's son
We got met with a tear gas bomb
I don't even know why we come
Goin' back where we come from
Oxford Town in the afternoon
Everybody singin' a sorrowful tune
Two men died 'neath the Mississippi moon
Somebody better investigate soonSong: Oxford Town (Bob Dylan, 1963 - Lennon and Maisy Stella Cover)
