Part 2: Black Lives Matter

15 1 1
                                    

I stand at my porch and see another innocent life taken

I may not know how it feels to lose a loved one that way

but I can promise that you are not going to go through it alone

And it's in that moment that I realize the hardest hit of them all is the babies and the young ones

whose relatives have to explain that the police took their

Brother

Sister

Husband (Dad)

Wife (Mom)

Friend

All because of the mentality "shoot first, ask questions later"
