Black Unity

It has always been the conscious and concerned that sparked the change throughout history needed to change the lives of the masses. American history teaches us this world is and always has been comprised of a few having everything while the masses have much of nothing. Luckily for us, the black community, we have always had people who cared enough to fight for us, the masses, and today should be no different. Just because some of us have made it, or arrived, there are still others who have not. We have the rights we have today because of those who sparked needed change yesterday. There are many ills within the country and the fight still goes on today. In fact we need people to stand up like never before because we cannot afford to lose the small footing we have left. America is in the worse condition it has ever been in and as well as the state of our people. Our ancestors were mentally empowered while being held captive as slaves than we are today as a people. We have been battered, beaten, and the mentality of many is, all hope is gone. Many live their lives this way because they don’t understand the power they possess. Many pass on this negative outlook to their children on a daily basis, such as: you can’t do this, no don’t do that – go get a job, you will never make it, or you don’t know who you are. Unfortunately we ourselves have become a part of the brainwashing team. There are many, many, reasons for this but regardless, this is our house and we must never stop fighting to improve our current realities and never turn our backs on the masses. If we do, we are turning our backs on God’s beloved creation, your Brothers and Sisters! We are the creation that no matter how many times we messed up, He continued to rescue and aid us because He loved us. We are family! We are one! Just as a mom never gives up on her child no matter the path her child may have taken, as Brothers and Sisters, we cannot afford to lose the moral authority. We may have different ideas and perspectives in order to achieve the same goals, but at the end of the day we are in this together. The world groups us as one, and we are one in God’s eyes so we need to fight this thing as one! Our dis-unity is what has kept us from excelling to higher heights. Our unity is so powerful that millions dedicated their lives to keep us separate, disagreeing, un-united and it worked because to this day we stand extremely divided. This division has been and still is our downfall. We all see there are problems our community face but we will never make a strong and deep impact divided. If we agree and work together to right the wrongs, we will quickly and effectively create the change that is needed. The power is within us but the key to our success is unity. There is an enormous amount of work to be done and countless areas to be covered to stand divided with these tasks. We cannot continue to do the same things we did yesterday and expect to see different results today…
