"The caged bird sings   
          	with a fearful trill   
          	of things unknown   
          	but longed for still   
          	and his tune is heard   
          	on the distant hill   
          	for the caged bird   
          	sings of freedom."
          	
          	- I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings, Maya Angelou
          	
          	I have been thinking about this for days, about how I should word this so that it does not hurt anyone and there is no miscommunication. If there is any of the above, do tell me. 
          	
          	I am not Black nor am I an American citizen, but I find it important to spread awareness about this matter.
          	
          	They have been fighting for years for basic rights. For the freedom many of us take for granted.
          	
          	If I can help spread their voice even a bit, it is an achievement, a win. So please, it is my request. Educate yourselves about BLM. Educate others. Sign petitions. And do not sit silent. The only way to tackle injustices such as this is to make sure that the message is heard loud and clear.
          	
          	The caged bird sings of freedom. It is only right that he gets it.
